These are my hiking and outdoor essentials. Most of these are things I have, some are on my wishlist, but all are things that make hiking and outdoor activities better and/or easier. Take care of your feet and make sure you have water!
I have merino wool socks that I wear every hiking trip!
What's Merino Wool, Why Choose It
This is one of those silly things that seems like something you don’t need. That is, until you have one! It is lightweight, easy to strap to your pack, and is amazing when you’re on the trail surrounded by sharp places to sit!
AceCamp 3940 Waterproof Foldable Foam Mat
Definitely an essential! Whether camping or backpacking jetboil is the perfect accessory.
Jetboil
To say I love these shoes is an understatement! I wear them until they are worn out - which is like 3x longer than any other brand! I really want the blue “Jeep” hikers! (Size 7.5 wide if anyone wants to send them 😉)
