Yaktrax Summit
The Yaktrax Summit are aggressive 3/8 inch carbon steel spikes with segmented sole plates that help prevent snow buildup. They also have a nifty BOA closure system that ensures a perfect fit.
These are for adventurous souls that like to get off trail in the winter. If you’re high tailing it up an icy hill these are what you want on your feet.
Ruffwear Knot-A-Hitch
The Ruffwear Knot-a-Hitch™ is a campsite dog-hitching system using climbing-inspired components and hardware. It allows you doggo to explore camp while still remaining safe and secure. It also comes with 36 feet of rope that’s easy to tension between two trees and comes in a carrying case that always stays attached.
It’s for dog owners that spend more time out of their backyard than in it. Take a break anywhere and still let your dog be a dog.
Kammok Roo Single Hammock
The Kammock Roo Single Hammock and Python 15 straps create the ultimate hang. The Roo Single is a ripstop nylon hammock that holds up to 400 pounds. It packs up small and only weighs about 10 oz. The new Python 15 straps have a wider design that keeps trees happy and have 33 connection points per strap so you’re guaranteed to find the perfect angle every time.
This setup is perfect for anyone that wants to nap at a moment’s notice because it’s small and light enough to keep in your pack at all times.
Hydroflask 64 oz Growler
Grrr! The HydroFlask 64 oz Growler keeps your favorite beverage cold for up to 24 hours. The handle makes it easy to fill your mug with suds one-handed, and their Fresh Carry System will keep it carbonated all the way to the campsite.
It’s for craft beer lovers who understand the sublime experience of sipping their favorite IPA while sitting on a rock in the middle of nowhere. Ok, it’s also fun to tote it along to backyard BBQs.
