Budget-Friendly

Essential gear that won't break the bank or your spirit for adventure.

  • Blue Osprey backpack with multiple compartments and adjustable straps.

    Osprey Daylite Plus Commuter Backpack

    We grab this for everything from grocery runs to day hikes. Perfect size, bomb-proof zippers, and it doesn't scream "I'm going camping" at the office.

  • A single, gray and black athletic sock with orange accents, displayed against a white background.

    Darn Tough Hiker Micro Crew Sock

    We've worn these on desert scrambles and alpine trails. They never smell, never blister, and when they finally wear out, Darn Tough replaces them free.

  • A pink Hydro Flask water bottle with a black cap and carrying handle, featuring a logo of a hand with a splash and the text 'Hydro Flask' on a white background.

    Hydro Flask Lightweight Wide Flex

    Finally, a Hydro Flask that doesn't weigh down your pack. Stays cold all day, fits cup holders, wide mouth for easy creek refills. Best of all worlds.

  • Packaged microfiber towel and rolled towel outside of packaging

    Rainleaf Microfiber Towel

    We used to pack bulky cotton towels until we discovered these. Dries instantly, packs smaller than a sandwich, and actually gets you dry after creek crossings.
