Gossamer Gear’s Guide to Stocking Stuffers for Outdoorsy Folk

Have some outdoorsy friends or family in your holiday circle? We've got you covered for all of the little stocking stuffers they'll be hoping to see this year! Below are ten of our suggestions for pulling together a hiker's dream stocking.

1.) Deuce Backpacking Trowel: Hey, everybody poops. And, at 0.6 ounces, this trowel weighs the same as 13 small blueberries. As we like to say, both are good for pooping in the woods! Compact enough to slip right into the side pocket of a backpack– or as a stocking stuffer.

2.) Long-Handle Bamboo Spoon: Our customers rave about this lightweight, naturally odor-, stain-, and water-resistant bamboo spoon! Made out of sustainable, natural material, this spoon will let your loved one enjoy their backcountry meal without that metallic taste of titanium. Make sure to let them know about our blog post about how to take care of the spoon, as well.

3.) The Crotch Pot: This is in the genre of laugh out loud stocking stuffers. It will start as a joke, and end up their new favorite piece of gear. Trust us. Who needs a stove when there's already plenty of heat down below? Dinner is ready by the time you reach camp.

4.) Pack of 10 Aluminum V Peg Tent Stakes: A lightweight and economical option for those of us who seem to always be coming up short a tent stake. Forest gnomes, maybe? Just make sure they keep away from your stocking stuffers!

5.) Cuben Q-Storage Sacks: For everyone who likes to stay organized while on the trail, we offer our Cuben Q-Storage Sacks. Made out of dyneema reinforced laminate, they're ultralight and come in assorted sizes and models to stash everything from tent poles to glasses.

6.) The Hipster: Fanny packs are alive and well. Wear this one as part of a backpack system, or alone as a highly fashionable statement piece. The Hipster Fanny Pack is the answer to all "I wish I had just one more easily accessible pocket on me" woes. Waist band is adjustable to fit all sizes.

7.) Backpacking Pocket Knife: This Swiss Army Classic SD Knife has everything you need and nothing you don't. Slip it in your pocket. Hook it to your keys. With its seven implements, it can save the day!

8.) Photon Freedom LED Micro Light: The Photon Freedom has long been one of our favorite, essential pieces of gear. Single-button operation provides full range brightness control plus safety strobe beacons. Water-resistant. Easy to use. Great for the backcountry or everyday use!

9.) Sticker Pack: Have a Gossamer Gear fan on your gift list? Aw, shucks! We're blushing. Stuff their stocking with our new sticker pack! Five awesome sticker designs will let them rep their Gossamer Gear pride on a water bottle, laptop, or even on their forehead!

10.) Gift Card: Sometimes it's best to let your loved one pick out what it is they most need or want. We've got you covered with gift cards starting at $10 and going up to your desired price.
