The Colorado Sun had a recent and excellent articl The Colorado Sun had a recent and excellent article on the cost of the “free” outdoors, be it gas, permits, and, of course, the gear. ... I applaud any article that shows how expensive the outdoors can get, especially when starting out. ... But it did give me the idea that I could put together a budget day hike kit. Something for three-season conditions in non-technical, if rocky, conditions in Alpine terrain. ... It is not the cheapest list but rather a list of gear that both beginners could theoretically use and still have some use as the person gains more experience and branches into backpacking. It lasts for a few seasons or more, too. ... 👣🧭 Read the article and see the list via link in profile 🎒🥾 ... #hiking

So, I want outdoor clothing that ends up being functional and not necessarily fashionable at the end and will do what is intended. And like any tool, I use different tools for different jobs. .. And my outdoor puffies are no different. .. In 2023, puffies are a “go-to” layer for winter and all seasons. Light, compressible, and capable. Though it is not the ideal layer for all situations, it is unusual for a person not to take this layer overall, especially when on extended backpacking trips during typical three-season conditions. .. And like other clothing or gear, Joan and I tend to have a quiver of puffies for different uses. ... 🧥 More info via link in profile ❄️ @montbellamerica @nunatak_gear #thriftstorefinds #militarysurplus #corporateschwag
