Received my issue today and after a quick skim through I think it’s better than the 2007 issue. My only complaint is they increased the number of pages for miscellaneous gear (cameras, sunglasses, etc) and the “gear” sections appear to be a bit smaller. I’m sure I’ll survive.
I do like the gear list suggestions based on area of the country pages 152 – 159. Definitely an issue to pick up at the supermarket or subscribe for.
For the eco-folks out there, there’s increased material on green gear over last years one short pager and a breakdown of how industry leaders are doing.
