Getting into any new hobby can be incredibly overwhelming and backpacking even more than most. The sheer number of tents, sleep systems, fabric options, and navigation apps (to name a few), coupled with confusing terms like “R-Value” and “Denier,” can be daunting. And of course, the big question everyone asks: How light is “ultralight,” and is it even right for me?
I am here to help. Together, we’ll build out your entire backpacking kit that is completely tailored to your body, your personality, and the adventures you foresee yourself embarking on. Not only will I list every single item that you will need to thrive in the backcountry, but I will provide multiple options for different budgets, how to hunt for deals, and explain exactly why I am making these recommendations. Backpacking gear can be expensive and typically consists of much trial and error, so why not get it right the first time!
I will recommend over 150 products covering 50 categories of gear, as well as discuss how to find the best deals when purchasing new equipment.
Step 1: Purchase a “Build Your Kit” session below.
Step 2: You’ll receive an email with a questionnaire and a link to schedule your one-hour virtual coaching session. Once you’ve completed the questionnaire, we’ll meet online to review my recommendations and refine your gear list together until it’s perfectly dialed in
Step 3: After our meeting, you will receive your personalized gear recommendations via email, links to purchase, and a printable gear checklist that you can use before your next trip to make sure you don’t forget anything!
