MY WILD CAMPING & BACKPACK CAMPING EQUIPMENT
Hilleberg Soulo
Since the Soulo’s free standing construction allows it to be pitched almost anywhere, and since it is remarkably light and tremendously strong, it is ideal for almost any adventure. During its development, nearly every tester found it perfect for whatever trip it was used on. Mountaineers, both recreational and professional, will take to its strength and low weight, as will backcountry hunters and winter campers. Bicycle, motorcycle and paddle tourers will choose it for its free standing simplicity and compact packed size. Backpackers in all seasons, long distance trekkers, and weekend hikers alike will be drawn to its light weight and integrated vestibule, and ski tourers and ski mountaineers will appreciate its snow load handling. Tall users will love its length, and all will appreciate its remarkable overall roominess.
VANGO BANSHEE PRO 200
The Banshee Pro 200 is an update on the flagship Vango tent. After nearly a decade of excellence, the Banshee has evolved into the ideal tent for multi-day hikes and wild camping. Established convenience and lightweight features have been augmented by innovative technological additions. The new ripstop flysheet is 13% tougher than previous versions and improves durability. The inclusion of Yunan eco-poles give another lightweight dimension whilst reducing environmental impact and making pitching easier than ever. This is a tent for people who want to balance mobility and performance when exploring.

ANTUR CAMPING MAT 2.0
We know carrying a big heavier camping mat when on a hike/camping or festival trip is really annoying and makes finding room in your backpack a little bit harder, so we created an ultralight sleeping mat weighing only 548g with a packed size of only 22cm x10cm x 10cm (that's about the same height as a water bottle!) It takes 8-12 breaths to inflate, (NO PUMP REQUIRED)! and when inflated it measures 193cm x 56cm - Perfect!

When your backcountry pursuits demand extreme insulation and an ultralight packed size, alpinists and mountaineers turn to the NeoAir XTherm. The unrivaled Triangular Core Matrix offers the best warmth-to-weight ratio of any air sleeping pad construction. The construction gives the 2.5 inch (6.4 cm) thick pad superior stability, boasting the most inches of weld for maximum camp comfort. The packable pad boasts a 6.9 R-value, allowing users to take it into the most extreme conditions. A

REVOLT 350 HEADLAMP
Now running on our new modular BD 1800 rechargeable battery, the Black Diamond ReVolt 350 is a powerful, versatile and rechargeable headlamp that has now been fully redesigned. Now producing 350 lumens of light, we’ve also updated the user interface by adding a second switch for easy lens mode selection. In addition, the improved optical efficiency provides brighter light with more peak intensity, and you can track the battery life with a six-setting, three-LED battery meter. The ReVolt 350 easily spots anchors while you rappel in the dark while its proximity lighting gives you a large area of light for hiking down the trail.

A warm, 650FP duck down sleeping bag with a recycled, wind resistant Pertex® Quantum outer. Designed with a comfortable wide shape, it's ideal for those buying their first down sleeping bag for use in cold conditions.
jETBOIL STASH
Stash Cooking System combines a titanium canister stove, lightweight FluxRing pot with an innovative lid and a pot support. In a set like this you get the added benefit of versatility so depending on your next adventure you can take the whole set or just take parts, such as the burner alone. Each part of this system is made with low weights in mind and it certainly delivers on this front. The ability to stow everything away in the pot, along with a gas canister, makes it highly packable too.
The FluxRing pot uses a heat diffuser on the bottom which is highly efficient in terms of gas used to heat the pot. It has a simple folding handle that makes it easy to stow away while the lid has a handy pouring hole and, as a nice extra touch, a second top on it where you can store a small lighter or flint. The pot support does a good job of stabilising the whole system and it is especially handy when you have a full pot.
