‘Tis the Season for sitting around campfires, bundling up for a winter hike, and gathering with family & friends. I’ve put together a guide to help you with your gift giving…or stocking up on gear this holiday season. Below you will find some of the gear that I use in my outdoor adventures, and things I think would make a wonderful gift. For other ideas, visit the gear page. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
