“I can’t praise this tent enough,” shared a happy camper. “I’ve used it several times since I bought it but last week I put it to the ultimate test, sleeping through a hurricane and remaining dry. We spent over 12 hours in no less than an inch of standing water around us- combined with the matching footprint, this tent’s sturdy floor remained almost completely dry throughout. I did not notice a single drip from the roof, and the floor had mild condensation at worst, which I found amazing given that it had essentially become a waterbed. We left once the sun was shining the next morning, dry and comfortable.”

“I wear this jacket on windy, rainy or light snowy days,” wrote a rave reviewer. “It’s got an awesome aesthetic and silhouette. It’s lightweight and not overbearing to move in. Occasionally if it’s in the 40s I will wear a sweater underneath and this on top. Great jacket, cool look.”

If you have any camping plans this summer, a high-quality flannel shirt is a must-have. This one from Patagonia is made with organic cotton that’s not too heavy and not too light — perfect for cool mornings in the mountains.
$49 at REI
“This is already my favorite flannel shirt,” raved a five-star fan. “It fits and hangs in a much more flattering way for a woman. Less boxy. Shoulders stay in place instead of falling towards the back like a few I’ve bought. Doesn’t shrink in warm wash. Arms are long enough and it stays reasonably soft after washing. Loved the warm colors so bought the pale green and the reddish brown. Very happy with them.”
