High Country Staff Wish Lists: Glenn

In the spirit of the holidays, we're posting Staff Holiday Wish Lists this month.

Even though we work in this really cool store, there are always items that we need*. It probably doesn't help that we hang out talking about the ins and outs of everything we carry every day, but that's beside the point. There are always some items that each of us are eyeing.

This week we have Glenn, our Buckhead store manager. Glennis an avid backpacker, father, bearded fellow, and chef. Here's his list:

• Big Green Egg: "They're awesome. No other way to describe it but sheer awesomeness."
• Arc'teryx Gamma LT: "This pullover is wind-resistant and lightweight. Versatile to go anywhere from backpacking to around town. And baby throw up rolls right off it."
• La Sportiva Trango S EVO GTX Boot: "I want these for two reasons: A, I need a new pair of boots, and B, they're lightweight but also sturdy, stable, have a glorious 3D flex ankle, and they fit my foot well."

As far as items go that he already has but highly recommends to others:

• Deuter Kid Carrier II: "This is the only way to go camping with a non-walking child. It lets me get into the backcountry with my family."
• Arc'teryx Atom LT Jacket: "If I hadn't just bought this for myself, it would be on my list. This jacket is really cool."

That's Glenn's holiday wish list, he can certainly help you out with some ideas for your family, cooking, or backpacking needs, too.
