The only thing better than cool camping gear is cool camping gear that’s also free.
The Scout Life Gear Up for Camping Giveaway is your chance to win an awesome package of cutting-edge camping gear. The contest is live now and runs through June 30.
One lucky adventurer will win four pieces of awesome gear: a one-person tent, sleeping pad and sleeping bag from ALPS Mountaineering; and a water bottle with a built-in filter from LifeStraw.
On top of that, four individuals will have the opportunity to win one item each by tuning in and commenting during the June 10 episode of #TrekOnTuesday, which will be broadcast live on Scouting America’s official Facebook channels, and on Scout Life’s YouTube channel.
Tell me more about this awesome gear!
The tent, sleeping pad and sleeping bag are provided by ALPS Mountaineering, a family-owned business and longtime valued partner of Scouting America.
Founded by gear designer Dennis Brune, the company has become a leader in both innovation and customer satisfaction. Brune and his wife, LaRayne, raised their children to have a healthy knowledge, love and respect for the outdoors. It’s no surprise, then, that all three of their kids — Brian, Adam and Sarah — have roles in their parents’ company.
Their Hiker Direct program offers big discounts on camping and hiking gear.
The Felis 1-Person tent is a freestanding, two-pole tent that can be assembled quickly and easily. It’s made from 100% recycled polyester fabric and comes with a weatherproof fly that provides maximum protection from the elements.
The Flicker sleeping pad is ultralight, packs small and also uses 100% recycled material. Its pillow-like chambers give comfy support, and its flat valve allows easy inflation and deflation.
And the Genesis +30º sleeping bag features a two-way, full-length zipper that lets you vent or sit up, and it packs down in the included compression sack. The ripstop shell and liner are also made from 100% recycled polyester.
LifeStraw is one of the more unique outdoors gear companies out there. They’re dedicated to creating beautiful, simple and functional products that provide the highest protection from unsafe drinking water. And, for every product sold, a child in need receives a year of safe water.
The Peak Series Collapsible Squeeze 650 mL Bottle with Filter tucks into any pack and filters out gross stuff like bacteria, parasites and microplastics. Just squeeze, sip and keep exploring. Its premium materials make it convenient enough for the most casual campout and tough enough for the most rugged backcountry outing. And, it’s long-lasting: Each Squeeze can filter up to, 2,000 liters of water.
