- GEAR -

Don't despair! Here are 6 gift ideas for that outdoorsy person in your life that seems to have ALL the outdoor gear already. Personally, am hoping for number 3. Fingers crossed!

1. Buff® filter tube scarf

OK, so this may not be the most original outdoor gear suggestions but c'mon, how could I not mention it with 2020 being what 2020 has been!!!

2. North Face Thermoball​™ V Traction Mules

These mules are light, comfortable and warm. Packable and perfect for sliding into a backpack. The design has a relaxed fit, but they don't feel sloppy at all. The sidewall gives just enough support for lounging around camp and the collapsible heel cuff can be worn around the heel or underneath to easily take on and off. Love mine!

3.​ Katadyn BeFree Water Filtration System 0.6L bottle

Great lightweight, on-the-go filtration system. ​It features a small high-flow nozzle and fibrous filtration unit that attaches to a soft bottle. All you have to do is scoop up water from any source softly squeeze and start drinking. It filters out bacteria and protozoa including Giardia and Cryptosporidium, but not viruses.

4. "The Man Behind the Maps" by James Niehues

Perfect coffee table book for any ski lover. Featuring over 200 hand-painted ski resort trail maps, this beautiful 292-page hardcover book is the first and definitive compilation of the art created by James Niehues during his 30-year career.

5. Emergency blanket

You'd be surprise how many day hikers don't carry emergency blankets. Perfect stocking stuffer!

6. Mountain First Aid course

It's one of those things many outdoor enthusiast think of doing but never get round to. Completing a First Aid course run by a highly qualified professional will prepare them to deal with an emergency in remote areas where a rescue may take time to arrive. Currently we are offering an online Mountain First Aid course in partnership with HealthFirst that will begin in January 2021. Click here for details
