I love me some Earth. It throws so many things at me when Iâm out trying to explore the next nook and cranny. Iâm glad that @gearaid has me set up with success. I use their products to repair and refresh my gear so I can keep it out of the garbage dump even longer. Local Portland folks can get their products at @locoporlaaventura and @sportsmans_warehouse .
If you love the outdoors⌠đ ask yourself these questions:
How am I impacting the earth?
Am I throwing out my gear for the latest trend?
Am I over consuming when I can just repurpose, re-use, fix, maintain, patch it, or repair it? @gearaid
Am I treating everyday like itâs #earthday? Leaving no trace? Following the 7 principals?
Respecting & caring Mother Earth?
CAMPING GEAR! đĄâşď¸
Versatile use but I love bringing this compact light with me for camping!! Who else is excited for the spring/summer season? đď¸
The Carabiner Light Kit by @gearaid is a rechargeable LED light that can be attached to keys, backpacks, or used as a mini lantern, flashlight, or signal. With 4 light modes and runtimes of 1.5 to 4 hours, it recharges in 40 minutes and is IPX4 water-resistant. It also includes a webbing adapter and a paracord adapter to convert it to a Camp Carabiner for hanging electronics and gear at camp.
Ideal For:
Lighting up tents, tarps, or camp kitchens
Clipping and hanging lights wherever you need them
Adding portable, adjustable lighting to any outdoor setup
Happy adventures!

Before you throw outgrown kids gear away⌠try this first đ
These were Corbinâs bootsâand now theyâre ready for Rubyâs next round of adventures.
3 easy steps:
⢠Clean
⢠Restore
⢠Protect
We used @gearaid boot kit to bring them back to life, and honestly⌠Iâll never look at âoutgrownâ gear the same again.
Kids gear is expensiveâkeeping it in rotation just makes sense.
Better for the planet đ
Better for your wallet đ¸
And way more meaningful đ¤

Patching your outdoor gear is quick and easy with a peel-and-stick repair patch. No sewing, no fuss, just repair tape that holds up against the elements, and is fully machine washable just 24 hours after you apply it. Whether itâs your favorite puffy or a tent youâve had for years, you can keep it going with Tenacious Tape.

You donât always need new gearâŚ
sometimes you just need to take better care of what you already have đ. April is Earth MonthâŚ..
In anticipation of Earth Day, Iâm making it a priority to repair, refresh, and extend the life of our gear instead of tossing it.
Because every small fix = less waste in our landfills
âŚand more adventures for us đ¤
If your gear has been through it (same đ ), nowâs the time to show it some love.
Stock up on @gearaid essentials and give your favorites a second life.
Adventure longer. Waste less.

Any travellers out there would know the biggest pet peeve is having to put your backpack on the ground in the public washrooms, like grosss...đŠ
This is the HEROCLIP by @gearaid itâs the ultimate TRAVEL HACK âď¸â¤ď¸ no hooks in sight, no problem!
It is super compact with its rotating 360 degree clip built with solid aluminum. It comes in 3 different sizes: small, medium & large.
The medium clip is perfect for backpacks, hanging camping lanterns & hanging any outdoor gear!! Iâm excited to update my gear wall with these clips soon⌠đ

When youâre deep in a canyon and stuff goes sideways, @gearaid has you covered. I stuffed the aquaseal UV in my kit and Iâm ready for whatever the river throws at me. Kit includes some tenacious tape patches just in case the drysuit catches a leak.
