This holiday season, give the gift of adventure to your loved ones with the help of our holiday gift guide. We’ve compiled some of our favorite camping gear to help you give the best gifts this year.
Water Storage + Filtration
Let’s face it, water is the most important and the heaviest thing you’ll be carrying when going on a camping trip. Did you know water weighs over 8 lbs per gallon? The Seeker 6+ is the perfect piece of gear to eliminate the hassle of packing in heavy loads of water. The Seeker 6+ inline filter connects with a Plug-N-Play Cap to deliver gravity filtered water when hung. The filter itself removes 99.99% of E Coli & Parasitic cysts and filters approximately 1,500 liters of fresh water at a rate of >1 L per minute.
