The first mile you question everything you packed. By camp you remember why.
Backpacking rewards good gear decisions more than almost any other outdoor activity. Every ounce matters by mile four, which is why this collection is built around what actually earns its place in your pack: Sea to Summit dry bags, HydraPak hydration, and stove setups that hold up from a shoulder-season weekend to a week in the backcountry.
Shelter
For shelter, Sea to Summit Telos Evo, Telos Evo Bikepack, Ikos Evo, and Sentinel tents live in our backpacking tents collection.
Sleep System
Sleeping bags live in our ultralight gear collection. For a synthetic bag that handles damp camps, the Sea to Summit Hamelin and Hamelin Women's come in 30°F and 15°F ratings.
Cooking and Hydration
Titanium cutlery and a double-wall cup make a light trail kitchen. For fuel, the solid tab systems are the simplest setup for short trips; the Trekker's Alcohol Cookset handles longer hauls without the weight of a canister.
On the hydration side, the HydraPak Force reservoir fits most hydration-compatible packs and comes in 2L and 3L. For non-reservoir setups, HydraPak Stow soft flasks collapse when empty and disappear into a hip belt pocket.
For lighter day trips that don't require overnight gear, our day hiking collection covers a more focused kit.
