10 Gift Ideas for Hiking, Camping & Outdoor Adventures

Words by Emily 

Our Favorites For Your Favorites 

Outdoor adventure gifts are the best kind around. We created a list of 10 must-have recommendations for anyone that enjoys hiking, camping, backpacking, or just getting outside.

As a small brand, we are always looking to include other small or local brands when it comes to our Holiday Wishlist. We have some great finds included this year and are excited to share them with you.

Give a gift that supports small brands, large brands, and gets someone outdoors this year!

We'd take any of these beautifully designed blankets from our friends Sky and Arrow. They sell quality textiles and donate one to those in need with every purchase. There's nothing better than a gift that gives back.

The filter processes up to 2-liters per minute, while the convenient 16-ounce size is easy to attach to your pack or slip into a water bottle pocket.

Sea to Summit Dry Sack 

The eVAC Dry Sack has a genius design that allows air to get out but won't let water in. This provides maximum compression in your pack, while keeping items dry. These stuff sacks are worth the price tag when the weather turns bad. We find the 8L and the 13 L sizes to be most useful for our needs.
