Is the best companion for a sleeping bag in a tent. Hold the heath near your body and is easy to fold so it saves up space. Be careful as for long expeditions a simple neoprene mattress is usually more reliable that an inflatable one. A inflatable pad is a luxury gift for a hardcore adventurer.

Sleeping under the stars is a relaxing experience and most enjoyable. If you are warm and comfy. So, a great gift is a sleeping bag. This one is waterproof and has a mummy hood to keep the head or pillow off the ground. Pick a down one that is also light and warm, and check before if anyone is buying a similar gift – you don’t need to many down bags at one, they loose properties over time.
Food is vital for anyone. But in conditions of camping, hiking can be particularly tricky to prepare a meal. Good thing we can find outdoor cooking sets.

A good idea for that special other is to have a jacket to keep her warm and protected from the wind. This wind stopper is made out of bonded fleece and has a Omni-Heat thermal reflective layer.
For cold weather there is nothing more suited than a comfy, cool jacket. It has synthetic insulation on the inside, the DWR finish repels moisture and the hood is a protective layer for stormy weather. An adventurer needs maybe 2 down jackets, a lighter one for not so cold areas and a serious down jacket – usually this one he chooses by himself, don’t assume you know his choices in something so important.
First layers are very important in hiking apparel. It help protect from cold temperatures and keep a low level of humidity. An adventurer can use it during winter hikes, skying, expeditions or any other cold environment.
