Here’s everything you’ll need – and everything I bring – for three-season success in the backcountry.

A dive into gear for hiking the Continental Divide Trail.

A comprehensive picture of the gear JMT hikers use.

Here is the newest and my favorite gear from the past year, and what I’ll (likely) be updating my next year’s gear list with.

This post covers the highest-rated gear, the most common gear, base weights, gear advice, and more.

Reviews of the gear you will need to thru-hike the Pacific Crest Trail.

A guide to hiking the Wonderland Trail in Washington’s Mount Rainier National Park.

A dive into gear for hiking the John Muir Trail.

Using the data from the Pacific Crest Trail survey, I’ve come up with a list of the best PCT water filters and treatment systems.

I’ve organized this in a way that I hope will give a comprehensive picture of what gear PCT thru-hikers are using.
