Their paper or coating or whatever they use is proprietary, but it almost seems like there is a wax mixed in with the paper, so water will just bead up on top of each page. You don't have the problem like with regular paper where the fibers get wet and start catching on each other, making pages impossible to pull apart. Yeah, the pages are easy to pull apart.

One question I would have is how do the pages react when they get wet? Regular paper is almost impossible to get apart when it's multiple pages (like in a notebook). I'm assuming this RITR paper keeps to itself pretty well and doesn't bind to the other pages? Nice paper, that would be pretty handy.

Turning 50 and sore muscles appear to go together. I started taking "Vitamin I" after hiking and it helps a great deal. My wife now tells me Pineapple is a great natural anti-inflammatory the is not so hard on the liver, but I have yet to try it. http://www.backpackbasecamp.com I never took any drugs until last year.
