Don’t get ticked off
with ticks.
Prevent tick bites. Pretreat clothing and gear with
the wash-in insecticide permethrin. Use repellent with at least 20% DEET
on exposed skin. Sower after outdoor activity, and then check yourself for
ticks. Pull them off with fine-tipped tweezers.
Seasonal Reminder: Dress for the weather, not the car. Spring is not the end of hypothermia season.

Be Safe Out There. Driving to the trailhead, hiking along the trail or bushwhacking and camping in the backcountry need some special techniques and good equipment. Keep your tent, sleeping bag, backpack and other gear in tip top condition.
Wildlife needs your respect, especially if you are part of their food chain. Learn to incorporate preventative techniques in your normal routine and you’ll not need to be apprehensive while in bear orcougar country.
Safe drinking wateris one of your main concerns. Water filters and water purifiers provide safe and convenient water wherever you are.
To fully enjoy the great outdoors you must feel safe and secure. Whether you're new to the wildlands or have spent several years trammeling about, learning or reviewing safety tips is always beneficial.
Be aware of hypothermia whenever in cool, moist windy situations.
So pack up your tent, sleeping bag, and camping gear on your pack frame and get out there.

items for outdoor recreation.

outdoor equipment are offered to increase your enjoyment of the great outdoors.
As experienced outdoor users, we have selected quality products that are
functional, durable and fairly priced to meet your needs.
Tents and sleeping bags of various sizes and styles provide good,
comfortable shelter while strong pack frames help make the hike half the fun.
Trekking poles or walking sticks make a big difference for
increasing efficiency and stability on the trail and especially for cross
country travel.

Hiking & Camping Gear:
As lifetime outdoor enthusiasts, we understand it can be
hard to find gear that is functional, durable and reasonable priced. Finding
yourself five miles from the trailhead and finding your tent frame won’t
function the first time you use it is no fun.
