To know I am doing my part in preserving and respecting nature and all its wildlife is only second from my belief in the almighty .This is only my thoughts.

It would be great to have updated equipment instead of well used hand-me-downs.

After my last backpacking trip carrying a 48 lb pack for a 10 day solo hike on the Quachita Trail and having a heart attack. A med flight, and an open heart double by pass and a defib pacemaker, I am being forced by my limitations to dramatically reduce my carry weight.
I’ve been walking 5 miles a day with 20 story’s of elevation change and cycling 10 – 15 miles a day to get back in shape.Boy Scout leader for over 20 years, 2 Eagle Scout sons.
Winning your gear, might save my life.

Nothing like new gear to drive a need for being outdoors.
Donna Duran
I’m getting back into camping after many years. It would be great to have newer gear than what I have from early 80`s

My wife and I just got back from the Appalachian Trail. I have a Roo double but I bought a Roo single with Python 10s for less weight. I’m 6’1" and 250lbs and I slept great.

I started hiking/walking with my dog to relieve anxiety. It’s been a great remedy. I hope I win one of these. I could really use some of this stuff. I got my first true backpack recently and love it.

I dont even know what I would say if I won the first place package…would be a dream. I would probably take off and yo-yo the Colorado trail this fall. My plan is to start my CDT Thru-hike spring 2020 and finish my Triple Crown in 2021. As a Disabled Veteran, this ultralight set up would save the extensive wear and tear on my joints. Every finger and limb are crossed.

Michael Harmon
This is great. My grandson would love it!
Aleisha
Headed out West for a month this summer hitting some sweet spots like Shi Shi Beach, Cape Perpetua, Redwoods, Tamolitch Falls, Bagby Hot Springs, Big Sur, and many more. Your brand would be killer in my travel photos on my trip! See ya on the flip side 🤘
Lisa
How exciting to win all that gear! Can’t wait to hear from you!
Craig Hargrow
Awesome gear! I hope someone wins who will actually use it.
Scott
Good luck to us all. If I win, and “if” I make it to Mount Katahdin….I will take a selfie photograph with all the prize products, so you can all see how it helped me get there. Also….a note to the other winner….“if” I win, maybe we can all get together, and trade…(?)….there are things in each of the three categories that I would like….maybe we could trade? Hope to see you soon!
