Helly Hanson has been a trusted name in outdoor wear for years, and for good reason. Their gear
is not only affordably priced, but it’s also built to last. I should know – I’ve been wearing Helly Hanson gear for years, both as a ski patroller and in my everyday life. Whether I’m out on the slopes or hiking through the woods, I know that Helly Hansongear will keep me comfortable and protected from the elements. And if my gear does happen to get damaged, Helly Hanson’s excellent warranty policy means that I can get it repaired or replaced at no cost to me. That’s why Helly Hansen is my go-to brand for all of my outdoor wear needs.

Lazer Sport produces a great line of helmets ranging in size from kids to adults. Their Helmets provide great crash protection and they stand by their gear which is part of why I trust them with
my kid’s noggins. Lazer sport provides a crash replacement program where they are happy to offer a 50% discount off a new replacement helmet so you can get back on your bike as soon as you are ready. Any Lazer helmet purchased within 3 years of crash damage is covered by the Lazer Crash Replacement Program. This is an awesome company that believes in its product and wants to help you get back on your bike as soon as possible! They have a wide variety of helmets to choose from so you are sure to find one that fits your style and needs.

Backcountry is one of my favorite places to shop for outdoor gear. They carry gear from some of the most reputable brands in the industry, like North Face, Patagonia, Yetti, Black Diamond,
and more.

Their prices are always reasonable, and their sales are incredible. In addition to their great return policy, Backcountry is now making their own line of high quality lifestyle gear. I highly recommend shopping with Backcountry if you are in need of any new outdoor gear. You won’t be disappointed!

If you’ve watched any of our family’s adventures, you’ve probably seen footage captured with our Insta360 camera. This powerful little camera is absolutely amazing, and I almost never leave the house without it. Not only does it have the ability to film in 4k, but it also records 360 degrees. That way, you won’t miss a thing and you can get some pretty nifty shots using it. While it’s filming,
it has a program built in that stitches out the pole that you have it mounted on, so it provides you with a seamless shot no matter what frames you’re choosing to use for your next video. We absolutely love our Insta360 camera and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, high-quality camera that can do it all!

If you’re looking for a phone case that can keep up with your active lifestyle, LifeProof is the way
to go. I’ve had my LifeProof case for several months now, and it’s been absolutely amazing. I’ve dropped my phone while skiing, biking, hiking, and canoeing, and it’s never once failed me.

The case is super durable and has a great warranty – if anything ever happens to it, Lifeproof will replace it for free. Knowing my phone is protected gives me an enormous peace of mind, and I would highly recommend LifeProof to anyone with an active lifestyle.

Head was established in 1950 by Howard Head and was predominantly a skiing brand to start.
Since its inception, they have created a great lineup of skies for both professionals and recreational skiers. Head provides amazing gear for winter activities and our family has been riding their skies
for years and using their gloves to keep our hands warm.

We love their products because they are durable and Head always offers the latest technology in their designs. Their products are also very affordable, which is important to us as a family. Overall, we highly recommend Head for all your winter gear needs!

REI is our go-to one stop shop when we are looking for outdoor gear while traveling in the US.
We appreciate their wide selection of top-quality gear as well as their excellent return policy. REI members can return gear within one year of purchase for a full refund or exchange, while non-members have a 90-day return period.

This policy gives us confidence that REI stands behind every product they sell. Additionally, REI is a great place to try out new gear before making a purchase. We can always count on REI to have
the latest and greatest in outdoor apparel and equipment.

Osprey is a brand known for their amazing warranty. Osprey provides a lifetime warranty for all of their bags dating back to 1974. If your bag falls apart, tears or is otherwise deteriorating Osprey will either fix it or replace it for free. They do this because they are committed to making the best
quality backpacks on the market and can only do that by taking in backpacks that have fallen
apart and learning from what went wrong and how people are using and abusing their packs.
That Mountain Life family loves using Osprey packs and would highly recommend anyone looking for a great outdoor pack check out their website or stores near them that carry these amazing packs. Osprey has everything from small day hiking packs to large expedition packs and everything in between! Their prices are also very reasonable for the high quality of backpack you’re getting.
We have never been disappointed with an Osprey pack and know you won’t be either!

Outdoor Research was founded by a man named Ron Gregg out of a necessity to create quality gear that won’t fail, at first specifically gaitors. He has a once and a lifetime trip cut short because
of failed pair of gaitors and this sent him on a mission to help the outdoor industry never have
these issues again. Since then the Company has gone on to create all sorts of quality gear from jackets and gloves to bivy sacks and backpacks.

All with the same desire for high quality and top-notch functionality. We know lots of people that
use Outdoor Research and love the brand and find their gear to be extremely durable, warm and
fits well. Outdoor Research is a great company with amazing gear, if you haven’t tried them before we highly recommend giving them a shot!

Thermarest is a great brand if you are looking for sleeping mats for your next camping adventure. They created the world’s first inflatable sleeping mats in 1972 and have since dramatically improved their design making them a great choice for any multi-day hiking expedition. Being an adventure family we know the importance of getting a great night’s sleep and we trust Thermarest to help ensure that our kids get the best night’s sleep while we are out on our adventures. Thermarest has
a wide variety of sleeping mats to choose from depending on your needs and they also offer a variety of accessories to go along with their mats such as pumps and repair kits. We have always been happy with the quality of Thermarest products and their customer service is top-notch.
