Hiking & Camping Gear

This is a great, lightweight sleeping bag. The down will keep you warm and you can choose between a 30 degree or 15 degree weather option. I have the 30 degree and it is plenty warm but I have not been camping in freezing weather yet. There are multi...

This sleeping pad is very comfortable. It didn't lose air at all during the night. It comes with a pump sack to help inflate it.  It's lightweight and folds down nicely.

For someone who never had to set up a tent before, this was a very easy set-up. There's plenty of room for 2 people. It's lightweight and the poles can be removed if you need to share the weight with someone.

This is my go-to carry-on and day hiking bag. It meets the criteria for airline carry ons (and I've had it stuffed to the max). It is water resistant. I've taken it on a hike in light rain and everything stayed dry. The bag is very durable and fits a...

I use this bag for our multi-day hikes. It's comfortable to wear and easily adjustable to your body type. It has an extended waist strap as well.  I really like how it has a separate sleeping bag compartment so it's easier to organize.  Very durable and holds a lot.

This stove is easy to put together and is really lightweight.  The water boils quickly and it works great for coffee and dehydrated meals.

This case really is waterproof. I've used it in multiple hot springs in Iceland and it kept my phone dry. The clear plastic allows you to operate the phone while it's in the bag. You can take pictures through it as well but you can get water spots fr...
