This is so much better than having to jam a wheel into the back of the car. It’s easy to install and sturdy.

This is without a doubt the best leash ever created. It has the easiest clip on, and the best handles without a doubt. The handle down by the clip is perfect for keeping the dog close and away from other people etc. It is durable and strong. Last camping trip I got my car stuck in the sand and we actually used the leash to hook to an ATV to pull me out!

Pick up one of these and a Kelty rope leash before you take the dog out for that long weekend of camping. The bowl will clip and secure right to the leash so you never have to worry about what to hydrate your dog with while your 6 miles from camp in the middle of nowhere. Kelty makes the best affordable and durable gear.

This pack is perfect. It holds just enough and is just the right size. It fits great under my jacket on the mountain and cuts down on the frequency of lodge visits, so I can spend more time riding. If you’re search for hydration, is like goldilocks and the three bears—this pack is just right (not too small or large and too expensive or cheap).

I bought the classic pack and noticed that at the base of the mountain I was drinking water and at the summit I was drinking slush. Get this to keep the flow going and to prevent your bite nozzle from icing over.

Not everyone has this jacket so you'll be different from every other college kid out there. It’s lightweight but still real warm, and it does a great job of keeping the wind out. I use this as my go-to jacket until I need to zip it into my North Face shell. I live in Michigan, and this jacket works well by itself up until the end of November. That should give you an idea of warmth

Spy makes awesome gear. I wear these everywhere. They're lightweight and take a beating.

I have never had a winter beanie that fit good. They all seem to be way too big and cover my eyes. But this hat fits awesome. I wear it everywhere casually, but it isn't the warmest beanie for the mountain. I recommend it for looks and style, but for warmth it’s not wool, so make a few extra trips into the lodge to keep warm.
