There are so many things that an adventurer might need and so many adventures that require different equipment, it’s very difficult\u00a0to make shopping suggestions that can apply broadly. \u00a0Nonetheless, \u00a0I’m going to suggest a few things that I have found useful regardless of my adventure. \u00a0Most of them have everyday uses beyond outdoor recreation, so you really can’t go wrong with these gifts.<\/p>\n

Leatherman\u00ae Brand<\/a>\u00a0and just that brand has many choices.\u00a0\u00a0Personally I carry a\u00a0Leatherman\u00ae Wave\u00ae<\/a>\u00a0in my pocket all the time. \u00a0I use it around the farm for things like cutting open bales of hay, building fences, pruning trees, removing staples, cutting rope, cutting wire, putting in and removing screws, pulling nails, repairing eyeglasses, and on and on. \u00a0I wouldn’t know what to do if I reached in my pocket for my Leatherman and didn’t find it there. \u00a0It’s certainly not an ultralight backpacking accessory, but for almost any other adventure, it’s sure to be useful at some point. \u00a0Leatherman\u00ae also offers a 25-year warrantee if you manage to find a way to break your tool.<\/p>\n![\"headlamp\"](\"https:\/\/explore.globalcreations.com\/theblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/headlamp.jpg\")
consideration to the type of adventures your explorer might want to pursue. \u00a0In many cases a light weight headlamp<\/a> will be handiest. \u00a0These allow your hands to be free if you happen to have the need to hike or set up camp at night. \u00a0For car campers, \u00a0a lantern<\/a> is the way to go. \u00a0Lanterns are too heavy to be of interest to backpackers, but they are ideal for those that drive to a campsite. \u00a0Many are bright enough to light up a wide area. \u00a0For a more unusual lighting system, consider Big Agnes’ line of mtnGLO tents<\/a>. \u00a0These high end tents come with a built-in lighting system. \u00a0If you don’t want to spring for a complete tent, Big Agnes also sells their lighting system separately<\/a> so it can be installed in any tent\u00a0or you can even\u00a0hang it\u00a0in the trees. \u00a0It’s small and weighs only 3 ounces so backpackers may even enjoy\u00a0it.<\/p>\n![\"First](\"https:\/\/explore.globalcreations.com\/theblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/firstaidkit1.jpg\")
old GPS belt pouch I had. It’s just the right size, doesn’t weigh too much and, with a little supplementation (some moleskin<\/a> and a couple of other things) it has what I need. \u00a0If your adventurer has a car, \u00a0a first aid kit for the vehicle\u00a0is a great idea. \u00a0These kits can be larger and contain as much stuff as your budget will allow. \u00a0You can go even further and get a survival kit in a bag<\/a> that includes a first aid kit and much more. \u00a0Whatever your adventurer does, \u00a0you can probably find a first aid kit<\/a> that will work for them.<\/p>\n![\"paracord\"](\"https:\/\/explore.globalcreations.com\/theblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/paracord.jpg\")
Paracord.<\/strong> \u00a0I know it’s an odd thing for a gift, but nylon\u00a0parachute cord\u00a0has many uses when out exploring or even around the house. \u00a0Any adventurer will appreciate the gift. \u00a0There are many types of cord\u00a0that are advertised as paracord, so be sure to\u00a0get a Type-III, also know as 550, paracord<\/a>. \u00a0This type is heavier and can hold up to 550 pounds, in case your adventurer needs to get out of a really tough situation. \u00a0Paracord can be used for all kinds of things from staking out a tent to tying things to whatever to even replacing boot laces. \u00a0Paracord can be disassembled and it’s component parts used for fishing line\u00a0or\u00a0thread. \u00a0 In a \u00a0survival situation, it’s great for lashing\u00a0branches together to make a shelter.<\/p>\n![\"Frogg](\"https:\/\/explore.globalcreations.com\/theblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/froggtoggs.jpg\")
outdoors where it rains all the time or they need to keep dry in the snow, something in GoreTex<\/a> is the way to go. \u00a0For most adventures in drier climates something less expensive will be appreciated. \u00a0I carry\u00a0a Frogg Toggs\u00ae Ultra Lite<\/a> rain suit in my backpack, whether on a multi-day adventure or just a day hike. \u00a0This light outfit is made of a laminated polypropylene material that is breatheable and waterproof. \u00a0It’s really for occasional use and costs less than $20 so don’t expect it to hold up to a lot of abuse. \u00a0If you want a heavier version, try the Frogg Toggs\u00ae Pro Action <\/a>style. \u00a0These are mostly marketed to men, but they will fit women as well. \u00a0Since rain gear is worn over clothing, be sure to get a larger size than normal.<\/p>\n![\"food\"](\"https:\/\/explore.globalcreations.com\/theblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/food.jpg\")
two companies: \u00a0Mountain House<\/a> and Good To-Go<\/a>. \u00a0Both have a nice\u00a0variety although Good To-Go tends more toward gourmet fare as well as special meals for vegetarians and those that need to avoid gluten. \u00a0These packages are designed so that your adventurer can zip open the top, pour in boiling water, wait a few minutes and have a great hot meal. \u00a0No need to wash dishes either! \u00a0For those that need a large supply to have available in case of an emergency, Mountain House sells complete kits<\/a>. \u00a0Determine the number of people and the number of days and they will have a perfect kit. \u00a0These freeze-dried foods are well protected, without chemicals, so they\u00a0can last for 30 years!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h1>\n
