Okay, laugh all you want. My sister bought me one of these as a gag gift one Christmas. I don’t think she realized how much I would use it.

These are my all-time FAVORITE socks. I have a million pairs, but I have fallen in love with these colors this year! If you’ve never owned a pair of Stance socks, then you have no idea what you’re missing out on! These are best for hiking, or daily winter wears. You can never have too many!

You need this book because you are a bada** too!
Okay, seems a little silly! But Zach got this for me as a gift last year because I saw it on a FB ad and had to have it. This was the best purchase we have made for my phone. I can sling it over my shoulder when we're on a hike for easy access and hang it off my wrist when I'm in the grocery store!

I use a propane stove every single day while living in the van! I have grown fond of and come to love how easy they are to work. This is a smaller version of the not-so-very-fancy stove I use daily! This little stove packs up nicely and is compact enough to be stowed away in a hiking bag!
A MUST-have for all the outdoor lady enthusiasts out there! This camping cookware set includes mugs, plates, and silverware for two, a kettle, pot, and sautee pan!

They are made with all vegan material and come in high-top or low- I ask for a new pair of Bangs Shoes for Christmas every year, and after you get your first pair, so will you!
Don't get caught in the wilderness without a way to charge your camera batteries! While I'd consider this Jackery a bit too bulky and heavy to carry on a hike, it is perfect for the traveling lady who needs all the extra power! It is one of our top-used items in our van build! This is the ideal size unit for boondocking and tent/car camping!
This limited edition Opinel folding knife is a perfect size and just the right amount of girly for the outdoorsy woman in your life. For me, a knife is more than just protection.

No woman is fully prepared for adventure without a cooler/dry box to complete her gear list! This is the perfect size for travel, equipped with a strap for lugging around, and has a small compartment within the box to separate food that can get soggy from the ice.

If you've ever been out in the woods and run out of water, you'll understand how essential it is to have a high-quality water filter.

This water filter allows you to fill all your bottles and water packs to keep moving for extended periods!
Almost every traveling lady I know lugs around a good yoga mat for stretching! This mat has straps for keeping it all wrapped up nice and neat. It is half the size of my current mat and can stow away easily in a tiny space!
