Rugged and Ready

The eTrex 20 is a breeze to operate, indoors and out, with five buttons on either side within easy reach. With its bright orange case and included lanyard, it's tough to lose. Plus, since the eTrex 20 is waterproof to IPX7 standards, it can take an accidental splash or dunk in the water and still continue to perform.
Find It and Go

With eTrex 20, your adventure will last, with over 20 hours of battery life on two AA batteries (rechargeable NiMH or Lithium batteries work great). As a handheld, it's plenty portable, weighing in at just 5 ounces with batteries. It's also compatible with a variety of spine mounting accesories, for use in cycling or other activities.
Paperless Geocaching

eTrex 20 also supports geocaching, a high-tech version of hide-and-seek where you explore the outdoors in search of hidden "treasure" and adventure. Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS-enabled devices. Participants (members) navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates and then attempt to find the geocache (container) hidden at that location. The eTrex 20 is the perfect way to get started.

Lightspeed 3 Room 8 Person Tent

| BUY NOW |

The front vestibule/entryway and center room of the tent are both tall enough to stand up in, no bending down even to get in the door. The two side rooms have curtain-type "walls" that zip closed, or they can be left open. There are lots of big windows all around the tent, which have both a mesh cover and a solid cover that can be zipped closed for privacy/weather.

Review

This tent is, in a word, AWESOME. I have used the Lightspeed 4-person tent many times and love it, and this new 8-person tent is just as great...actually, twice as great...maybe three times as great, since it is almost three times as big. It's really easy to set up (not a one person job, but easy with a couple of people) -- we of course did not consult the directions, but it was all pretty intuitive. The front vestibule/entryway and center room of the tent are both tall enough to stand up in, no bending down even to get in the door. The two side rooms have curtain-type "walls" that zip closed, or they can be left open. There are lots of big windows all around the tent, which have both a mesh cover and a solid cover that can be zipped closed for privacy/weather. The color is also really nice -- it's not too bright, so it doesn't look like a huge circus tent at the campground. We slept 5 adults in it, with plenty of room to spare -- definitely big enough for 8. We took this tent camping for the first time with a group of 9 adults, all of us with a lot of camping experience, and the overall consensus was that it is an awesome tent!

Sierra Designs Mojo UFO Ultralight 2-Person Backpacking Tent

Lightest, strongest, semi-freestanding, ultralight 3-season, 2 person tent available.

For those who are truly obsessed with ultralight gear, space-age materials, and technical designs, we offer the Mojo UFO.  Made with the insanely light and virtually indestructible Cuben Fiber, the Mojo UFO weighs a scant 1 lb, 11 oz and will stand up to just about anything you can dish out.  Folds up into a unique, ultralight Cuben Fiber envelope instead of a stuff sack.

  • ExoFusion - Exofusion shelters utilize an external frame combined with hybrid single and double wall panels, that allows us to create shelters unlike anything that has been seen or known before

  • Fast set-up - Because there is no separate fly to fuss with, an ExoFusion shelter sets up in far less time than traditional tents.

  • Dry set-up - Integration of the rainfly means your tent is protected during set up, rather than having the inner body get soaked before you can attach a separate flysheet.

  • Improved Ventilation - exoskeleton/hybrid wall construction allows vent placement and airflow planning that is not possible with traditional construction, so they stay dry and comfortable

  • Lighter - Hybrid walls, possible only with an exoskeleton frame, allow us to customize the tent interior with double walls where necessary, and single walls otherwise.  Less material means a lighter shelter

Solo Stove & Solo Pot 900 Combo

The Solo Stove is a natural convection inverted downgas gasifer stove that incorporates a secondary combustion for a more efficient and cleaner burn. The bottom vents allow air to enter and flow up the bottom of the grate to feed the primary combustion, a top down smolder.

In addition, air entering in from the bottom vents heats up within the inner wall and rises up and out the top firebox vents causing a secondary combustion at the top of the stove. The Solo Stove actually cooks the smoke out of the wood and then burns the smoke twice!

This technique makes for a cleaner burn which means less smoke and also allows the stove to burn more efficiently.

Ledge Sports Gooseberry Hydration Pack

| BUY NOW |

The Gooseberry is the affordable choice for a small and simple, easy to use, quality hydration pack.

Reviews
Most customers are very happy with this hydration pack. Here are some of the things they had to say.

Love it's size. I put half water and as much ice cubes in it, so ill always have the coolest water. Used it for a charity walk event and it was a nice size as it did not feel heavy at all. At times, I forgot I had it. This is great for long distance walking or similar such as charity walks, bike rides, hiking, etc. It's a great friend.


This pack is good value for the price. I ordered two of them for my kids, for hiking, snowshoeing, etc...They fit the kids great (5 & 8) and also good enough for my wife to borrow when we go adventure racing (short races).The quality is decent, and commensurate with the price. I am happy with the purchase and would recommend for anyone looking for a simple hydration pack for occasional light use.


This hydration pack is ideal. It was a whole lot cheaper than other 'name brand' hydration packs, yet seems to be solidly constructed. I thought at first this would be too small, but the internal bladder is 1.1L, which has been plenty on the three rides I have had it on. The external zip pocket is perfect for keeping my keys and wallet safe on rides. The straps are adjustable, so it was an easy fit, too.

Ben Hewitt On Living Without Money

Ben Hewitt made his name writing paeans to rural food systems and the iconoclasts who create them. Now, in Saved: How I Quit Worrying About Money and Became the Richest Guy in the World ($25), Hewitt covers his efforts to step away from the American financial machine, with the help of a 28-year-old wilderness-skills tutor named Erik Gillard, who survives on a four-digit income, lives in a handmade shack, and wears “McEnroe-era tennis shoes,” Hewitt writes. ­Occasionally, Gillard is heavier on platitudes than depth, but he’s a fun guy, and so is Hewitt.
