Medium: Top Outdoorsy Gifts for This Holiday Season

It’s hard to buy gifts for someone who says they don’t want or need anything. I know that because I’m one of those people, and I always end up getting gifts from people despite the fact that I say I don’t need anything. It can be hard to tell people that what I really need is outdoorsy gear, or money to go towards something I’m saving up for. So usually I don’t say anything and just let them do what they’re going to do, which is probably to buy me something despite what I tell them. Since I know other people often have the same problem, especially if they’re more focused on adventures and experiences, I complied a list of outdoors-focused gifts (ranging from a couple dollars to some more pricey options) that’ll hopefully help you buy friends and family gifts they’ll love!
