When Outdoor Research sent me their Onrush cap, my first thought was “Oh no, another hat that I’ll hate and it’ll collect dust in my things I’ll never wear drawer”. They proved me wrong. I’m not a hat lover still, but this cap is a-okay.
I am super happy and excited to announce that I’m joining this year’s Hell Hike and Raft crew! I’ll be heading off to Idaho and Hell’s Canyon early September for three days of backpacking and three days of rafting with some stellar folks.
It just so happens that two of my teammates, Russ Beebe the Winehiker and Annie Yearout the OutdoorsyMama, are located in the Bay Area! We decided to have a little tweetup to get to know each other and do some mild training for the trip.
When it comes to selecting shirts for adventuring, I have a tendency to pick merino wool over synthetic. But every once in a while, there’s a synthetic top that catches my eye and tickles my fancy. Right now, it’s the Outdoor Research Ignitor Tee!
Sometimes planning for camping meals can be a drag. Great Outdoors Food makes shopping for camping meals convenient and easy. I’d seen Laura and Great Outdoors Food lurking around on social media, so when she reached out to me to review the meal builder, I said sure!
As first and foremost a meal planner, it allows you to select a variety of pre-packaged meals from various offerings of meats, veggies, desserts, condiments, beverage packets and snacks. The site also offers a store to easily stock up on favorites.
With summer just around the corner, it’s time to start talking sun care! I previously covered Sun Bum’s PRO SPF 50 Sunscreen here. Today, I have the Sun Bum SPF 30 Continuous Spray sunscreen!
