Hi Friends!

Fall is coming on fast and we're squeezing in as much recreation as we can in the last weeks of warm weather. That said, we're really looking forward to the cooler weather as well. Fall is one our favorite times of the year to hike, backpack, and camp!

Now's a great time to grab some waterproof footwear and a new rain jacket so you can still get outside when the weather changes.

We also have two brand new guides covering the Best Backpacking Cookware and Best Camping Cookware of 2021. We put a lot of hard work into our market research, testing each product, and reporting our findings. Enjoy!

As always, thanks for following, and make sure to hit us up on social media.

GEAR PICK OF THE WEEK

TOAKS Titanium 750ml Pot

If you’re looking for the best balance of low weight and durability for backcountry cooking, you can’t beat a basic titanium pot. The TOAKS Titanium 750ml Pot is a long-time favorite in the outdoor community for it’s excellent value and compact size. Titanium can be expensive because it’s rarer than other metals and it’s more difficult to process, but this TOAKS Pot comes in at about half the cost of many other titanium pots. It isn’t all-inclusive (with a cup and stove) like some kits, but the 750ml Pot is a great building block for an efficient, ultralight cook system. You can easily fit a fuel canister, a small backpacking stove, and a lighter inside. The 750ml pot is the most popular size, but there are larger and smaller sizes available.

See how the TOAKS 750ml Pot stands up to the competition on our Best Backpacking Cookware list.
