My Favorite Hiking and Camping Gear & Clothing

I want to preface this with you don’t HAVE to buy the gear that I have listed and you don’t need this exact gear! You actually don’t need the perfect or most specific gear to start. 🙂

Even if social media leads you believe that, it’s not true.

Get out there with what you have NOW. 💛

When choosing gear or clothing, it comes down to what works best for YOU, your budget, your needs, your body, and your adventure.

Note: I’ve added a section at the very bottom covering vehicle emergency preparedness items. It’s not really hiking/camping related, BUT we do use our vehicles to GO on adventures & sometimes use our vehicles for camping!

👉 I’ve recently partnered with RockPorch where you can view all my favorite items all in one, beautiful platform/storefront!
