Gear

Here are items that can make your camping/hiking better. Some are necessary & others are just cool to either see, own or just know about. We're seeing technology make huge strides in anything from technical clothing to equipment. Enjoy them......and let us know of any others you may wish to share!

Cool Stuff....................

Headlamps.....
One of the simplest, but most essential gear items that scouts use nightly is the handless version of the flashlight, known as a "headlamp". This small & relatively inexpensive piece of equipment gives scouts (or any others) the freedom to use both hands in the dark, like a coalminer, instead of having to hold their flashlight. Using the headband to attach the headlamp aound your head, the beam is directed exactly where you are looking. For better clarity, attach on top of a ball cap or visor. The bill keep the beam from getting into your eyes! Small, lightweight, LED bright & usually run on a couple AAA batteries, you can find them anywhere from KMart or Dicks to Outdoor Provision Co. or your local hardware store anywhere from $8-$500.
