Renting Camping Equipment

I want to stress the fact, that it took us years to build up all the camping, hiking, backpacking, and climbing equipment that we own. We have a garage full of equipment, including our GPS unit. If you’ve ever been into an outdoors equipment store, you know how expensive all this type of equipment cost. Once you make the initial investment though, it’s a fairly cheap form of family fun and entertainment. You have all the camping equipment you need, you just need to fill the car up with gas, get some food, and go.

Now, let’s say you’re not sure if you will even like it. Maybe your kids, especially the teenagers, are balking at the idea of sleeping in the woods for two days. Yet, it’s something you really want to try out. There are companies like LowerGear.com that actually offer camping and GPS rentals, so you can enjoy the great outdoors without a big investment.

They have rentals for every thing you could ever want while camping.

• Backpacks
• Cookware
• Sleeping Bags
• Tents
• Trekking Poles
• Bear Canisters
• Lantern/Lights
• Stoves and Fuel
• Thermarest Pads
• Water Filters

Those items are high ticket products, especially the Thermarest Pads. We own them, and we wouldn’t ever go camping without them, but they were almost $100 a piece. Renting camping equipment for the first timer is a must. It will make your trip so much more enjoyable knowing you have everything you will need, without making a huge dent in your pocketbook.
