Atacama Gear - Brian's shopping spree

My little brother doesn't know how to do anything at half measure. He agreed to do the Atacama Crossing with our dad and me and then went to London and bought all his gear in one go, more than 6 months before the race! You can see his thoughts and gear on the updated Running in the Family page.

Brian's new gear!

I like to take a slightly more considered and analytic approach. If you're interested in following some of the research, preparation and post race reviews that I did you might enjoy these posts:

• My list of Atacama Crossing 2012 gear
• A two part review of my pack and some packs from friends
• An assessment of how my gear performed during the Atacama Crossing 2012
