Lunch with GetHiking! A Look at Modern Backpacking Gear

Been thinking about giving backpacking a try but not sure how much gear you’ll need — and how expensive it will be?

In this week’s Lunch with GetHiking! we go over the gear you’ll need, the options available for each and how they vary, shopping strategies and more. You might be surprised at how the reality of modern-day backpacking gear differs from your perception. We’ll also talk briefly, for those interested in getting into backpacking, our GetBackpacking! Intro to Backpacking program.

In our Gear Talk with Trusty segment, Austin with Great Outdoor Provision Co. discusses sleep systems.

As always, we meet for a half hour or so, via Zoom. The link to the gathering will be sent the morning of the event to those who sign up.
