like it. Too much carbon monoxide. </FONT></DIV>

horizontal line about three inches long in the back of your balaclava. Now
when you turn it around you have a nose hole for breathing easily. Your
nose is still covered. You could do the same for your eyes. Hummmm,
why didn't I think of that before. Of course, you could buy a balaclava
that has a face mask, but I find those too restricting.</FONT></DIV>

the pictures at their website. It weighs half an ounce, so I guess I will
keep it for the trail. I like the flexibility using it. Plus, it is
a great mask for Pirate attacks along the
trail.</DIV></FONT></DIV></FONT><BR><BR><BR><DIV><FONT style="color: black; font: normal 10pt ARIAL, SAN-SERIF;"><HR style="MARGIN-TOP: 10px">Who's never won? <A title="http://music.aol.com/grammys/pictures/never-won-a-grammy?NCID=aolcmp00300000002548" href="http://music.aol.com/grammys/pictures/never-won-a-grammy?NCID=aolcmp00300000002548" target="_blank">Biggest Grammy Award surprises of all time on AOL Music.</A></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
