@PriscillaT  Thanks for reaching out! I lived in Alaska for six years before moving south to Seattle last year, so I can provide some pretty good insight in to what is needed to keep your hands warm. Your best bet is to layer your hands similarly to any other part of your body; with an inner 'base' layer and an outer 'insulating' layer. Some glove or mitten combos come with both pieces, such as the REI Co-op Gauntlet GTX gloves or the Outdoor Research Mt. Baker Modular Mittens, which have glove liners and outer shells. Both of those options are waterproof as well. If you're not looking for that level of protection from the elements, you could look at combining a liner glove like these: REI Co-op Polartec Power Stretch Gloves  Seirus Sound Touch Xtreme All Weather Gloves  And wearing them underneath another, warmer, outer layer like these: Outdoor Research Transcendent Down Mittens  REI Co-op Tahoma Mittens That allows you to keep your hands warm in the mittens, but also take them off when you need dexterity (taking a photo or using your car keys, for example) and having the liner gloves help retain the heat in your hands. If you're going to be out playing in the snow (i.e. skiing, sledding, skating, etc), then the first options would likely be a better choice as they are waterproof and can provide that extra protection against snow and ice. However, if you're going to be outside sightseeing (i.e. watching the norther lights or the Iditarod), then the second option could work great. We hope you have an awesome trip to Alaska, thanks! ...

Wow. Thank you so much for your kind words of support and encouragement. It's messages like yours that make us feel truly grateful to be a co-op with members like you at the center.   Know that we have already passed your message along to others at REI, including our Memphis store team - you have made the day of many of us here at the co-op. We have also passed your social profile suggestion along for consideration - you have good company, with @Dad_Aint_Hip, who would also love to see an REI profile option!   Although 2020 was a challenging year, we have momentum heading into 2021 and look forward to all the year can bring in helping people get outside.

@ENC_Outdoor  Thanks for reaching out! At this time, we are unable to accept certain items, like boats, for our Used Gear Trade-in Program. As such, if you would like to sell your Perception Hi Life kayak, you will need to look at other online resale platforms. If your community has a local paddling club you may be able to connect with them to see if they are having any upcoming 'gear swap' style events. Hopefully this helps, thanks! ... View more

@ChelsE  Thanks for the question! While I have not heard any feedback about lack of rain protection in the Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL 2 tent, @OldGuyot has both a one person Tiger Wall and two person Copper Spur tent and can likely speak more accurately to those details. You can read some of their insight on this thread, Tiger Wall UL 3 person vs Tiger Wall Platinum UL 3?. We'll see if they can swing by this post and provide some insider knowledge. Hopefully this helps, thanks! ... View more

@DavidO  Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the community! While we don't have copies available of old manuals, we may be able to track down some more information for you. Can you provide some more details of the tent for us? Do you know, approximately, what year it is? Can you describe the colors used or provide a picture? It's a bit of a long shot but we can try to see if we can find anything out for you. Thanks! ... View more
