Scott’s Gift Guide!

Hi y’all! I am so excited to share my gift guide! I am an avid traveler – the German Alps are some of my favorite places in the world to visit. I also love going somewhere tropical, especially in the winter months of Michigan. With that in mind – I wanted to spotlight travel in my gift guide.

I crafted a gift guide full of my favorite luggage pieces! These are great options for the person who is always traveling and needs just the bag and accessories for their trip. The Osprey Sojourn Porter Travel Packs are new from Osprey and tough for any trip you take them on. If you are looking for a clam shell interior, I highly recommend the Cotopaxi Allpas to keep your belongs in place. If you want a duffle, check out the extremely spacious Patagonia Black Hole Duffel. The Osprey Ozone collection is super lightweight. Love your hardside but wanna upgrade? I suggest looking at out hardside options form Osprey and Gregory.

Wren’s Gift Guide!

Hi everyone! I am so excited to share my favorite gear gifts. I am an avid birder – my favorite place to go birding is Floral Lane at Warren Dunes, I love seeing the wide variety of warblers that come through there every year! My favorite is the Blackburnian Warbler! My highlight from this year was eloping on Mt. Hood!

I crafted a gift guide full of fun gear! These are great options for someone who loves to be outside in the winter, especially someone who loves to go birding or owling! The Rumpl Blankets are super warm and water resistant. Plus they come with a hands-free cape option! I also am a huge fan of our binocular brand, Nocs! They have a ton of options ranging from beginner to expert. Be sure to grab a Biolite headlamp as well! Even though the nights get darker quicker… your adventure doesn’t have to end. If you are looking for a super unique gift check out our MSR & Tubbs snowshoes! We have some Xplore Kits from Tubbs that are the perfect gift set.
