9. A classic Pendleton blanket that any adventurer would fawn over. Each blanket is named after a National Park, and is made of pure wool so it'll last for years.
Promising review: "I have had my eye on this blanket for years. After a long wait and saving of pennies, I finally purchased the Pendleton National Park Blanket Collection in Acadia. I use it every day as a throw over my comforter because I am always cold. I constantly get compliments on my bedding and Pendleton made my dream bedroom come true. Be mindful this blanket is dry-cleaning only; be careful with the wool to not damage the quality. This is as an investment, you'll have it forever." —Jean Vandekieft

10. A pair of touchscreen-friendly gloves that'll make an excellent stocking stuffer. They can be worn on their own or as a liner under heavier gloves.

They have fantastic grip in both wet and dry conditions and great underfoot protection. They are also quite breathable and dry out quite quickly when you must cross a river or stream. I have now gone through two pairs in the last year and a half and am excited to start my third pair. Nice work Salomon." —Eric G.

13. A Mammut Barryvox Beacon that'll help locate backcountry skiers and snowboarders in case of an avalanche, so you can give the gift of beefing up their emergency pack this year.

Promising review: "Fortunately I have not yet had to use this in an avalanche, but got to use it during a mountain skills course trying to locate a buried beacon. Most of the class used a rented BCA Tracker DTS. I found that I was able to locate the signal from farther away and followed a far more direct linear route to the dummy beacon as opposed to everyone going by a typical spiral pattern toward the same location. Would buy again." —ghengiska
Price: $350

17. A Steripen hikers and backpackers swear by for filtering backcountry water so you don't have to go way off trail to stay hydrated.

Promising review: "Hiking and bike-packing have their perks, but finding water in the backcountry can be daunting, with diseases and debris running rampant in even the freshest looking water. With the Steripen HydroPhoton, I've got a bit of peace of mind. It filters out the debris and kills bacteria, so I can keep adventuring without worries of losing a day to upset guts and bathroom breaks." —BJ Platte

20. A POC Obex helmet that's lightweight enough for all-day wear in the snow, but still sturdy in case of an accident or wipe-out.

Promising review: "I was learning to ride switch this year and this was the helmet I chose to protect the noggin. I was able to get it to a nice tight fit using the boa tightening system. The vents made it so my head wasn't getting super hot. The main thing that I love about it is the number of times it protected me. I caught my edge hard so many times and was only dazed." —Michael Dwyer

Price: $59.95
23. A pair of comfy Birkenstocks that just may outlast all the other gifts they get this year.

Promising review: "Excellent sandals! I have some 20-year-old Birkenstocks given to me by my dad, and they lasted forever, but it was definitely time for them to retire. I replaced them with these and they are still the classic comfort and excellent quality from 20 years ago! 10/10 would recommend." —Jackson McNeal
Price: $135 (available in sizes 41-46 and five colors)
24. A Fjallraven Byron Hat that's a favorite for a reason. It'll help you stay nice and toasty with no awkward fit!

25. A Big Agnes synthetic sleeping bag rated for temps down to 15F. This bag has a water-repellent finish and pad retainer to keep from slipping and sliding.

Promising review: "I really like this bag, it is great for car camping. The synthetic bag is nice if the weather is going to be wet. I really love the pad sleeve, it really helps keep the bag on your pad. I move around a lot when I sleep and often can move off or slide down on my pad, especially if I'm sleeping on a slight slope." —Ryan Anderson
Price: $189.95
26. A pair of stretchy climbing pants with drawcords in all the right places to ensure they have a successful climb at the crag.
Promising review: "I love wearing pants while climbing to protect my legs and since I tend to climb when it's a little cooler and these are the perfect pair. Nice and stretchy so I can throw a heel hook or high foot when needed but still durable to take a beating. The ladder hook waist strap is very nice to get the right size and fit easily and adjust as needed. I also love the ankle drawcord so I can adjust if the ends come up a bit, or flow to my shoes as normal. They look nice enough to wear around town, and then work amazingly at the crag!" —Josh Provost
Price: $51.73 (available in sizes 28-38 and two colors)
27. And an eco-friendly and biodegradable yoga mat that'll leave them gushing after using it for the first time!

Promising review: "This mat is one of the best yoga mats I've ever owned. All of Hugger Mugger's mats are super durable and have a really good grip. Compared to the mats I've used in the past, this is the only one I've had where I can do each pose comfortably, without worrying about slipping around. This mat is incredibly lightweight and is made of biodegradable materials so it's eco-friendly!" —Lexi Merrill
