Here's just some of the best deals available right now:
1. Up to 44% off a Therm-A-Rest ultralight sleeping pad so you have some airy padding underneath you while you sleep without adding too much weight or bulk to either your pack or just your regular camping haul.
Promising review: "I recently took this pad on a short backpacking trip and it was perfect. Lightweight, compresses small, doesn't take up much room in the pack, and fairly quick to inflate. It remained inflated throughout the night and I slept comfortably." —Rachel Jorgensen
Price: $79.99+ (originally $199.95 (available in three sizes)
2. Up to 37% off an LED headlamp so you can illuminate your path hands-free while night hiking, tooling around your site after sundown, or literally anything else you need to get done after dusk.
Promising review: "I take this light fishing with me on those early morning trips. It is bright enough to get me to my spots while hiking, works well on the boat, and bonus: the red light doesn't scare the fish. I also love that I can adjust the intensity of the light." —Dave Keogh
Price: $18.99+ (originally $29.95+, available in five colors)
3. Up to 29% off a Rumpl blanket whose water- and dirt-resistant exterior will give you the perfect place to sprawl out if you want to chill on the ground and whose compressible insulation will keep you nice and warm if you want to snuggle up under it.
Promising review: "Worth every penny. Soooo warm. I keep one in my car and one in my camping bin. It doesn't get much better than this. Great fabric, perfect size. I have camped with it and it doesn't smell like fire which was awesome." —Corbin Ekblad
Price: $69.99+ (originally $99, available in 13 colors and patterns)
4. Up to 32% off Smartwool crew socks perfect for treks through the wilderness in boots *or* for lazing about the house. My two moods.
Promising review: "These are the best! I definitely want to get more pairs. They are a great height for wearing with all of your winter boots, they are warm enough for your out and about errands in the winter (but not too warm), super soft and have such a nostalgic feel to them. You'll want to show these off the next time you take your shoes off just because of how cute they are!" —Laurel Worthen
Price: $16.99+ (originally $24.95, available in sizes S–L and six colors)
5. 30% off a three-person, three-season Marmot tent to keep you (and up to two cohorts!) safe from the elements as you slumber.
Promising review: "My Force is six years old and still doing well. Fits long sleeping pads/bags and I've always used a footprint and bottom is in good shape. Vents pretty well with rain fly on — I just try to get some air in by not cinching fly ALL the way to ground. Average 20/30 nights in it per year." —Jay T.
Price: $329.99 (originally $468.95)
6. Up to 52% off a packable camping pillow if dirty clothes stuffed in a random bag just aren't gonna cut it. A perfect ~luxury item~ to bring on trips.
Promising review: "I used this pillow on a three day bike trip where a pace van met us at each rest point. So glad I bought it; it made recovery a lot less of a concern." —Meghan Bruington
Price: $11.99+ (originally $34.95, available in sizes S–Xl and 14 colors)
7. 49% off a pair of Patagonia hiking pants that are moisture wicking, odor repellant, and have elastic cuffs so you can adjust them to the height you need based on the terrain. Basically everything you could wish for in a well-designed outdoor pant!
Promising review: "I'm obsessed with these pants! To me, they are the perfect cross between yoga pants and hiking pants--exactly what I need for warmth, comfort, and sun and bug protection while camping. I guess they might run big; not terribly so, but if you are between sizes you definitely should size down. These pants are very flattering and I'm so glad I found them on sale (though I would have paid full price for the quality!)." —Karen G
Price: $39.99 (originally $79, available in sizes XS–XL and four colors)
8. 25% off a pair of collapsable trekking poles for simply helping you get up and down all those mountains. They can also be used to prop up a tarp if you need to build a lil' shelter on the fly!
Promising review: "These poles are durable and get the job done. You can change the height and pack them up when you're done. They aren't the lightest on the market but are great poles for a great price!" —Joe Guttenplan
Price: $74.96 (originally $99.95, available in four sizes)
9. 30% off a CamelBak backpack so you don't have to carry literally anything at all in your hands. With a 2.5 liter water bladder and 22 liters of space for your other belongings, you're all set for a day of hydrated fun.
Price: $54.99 (originally $78.99)
10. 20% off a Jetboil backpacking stove that's just the light, small setup you've been looking for. You can eat and drink right from the cup it comes with and then store the entire system inside!
Promising review: "This is now an essential piece of equipment for backpacking, hiking and outdoor activities. I can literally make hot chocolate, coffee, soups in less than 5min from setup to eating. This is the best portable stove I’ve ever used." —Cyclewatts
Price: $119.99 (originally $149.95)
11. Up to 46% off a Kelty tarp to make absolutely sure you and all your necessary belongings stay dry should there be a sudden downpour. It'll also provide you some solace from the sun, which is famously hot, bright, and just...too much sometimes.
Promising review: "The Kelty Noah's Tarp is a nice addition to any campsite. It can shade a table, provide a place to get out of the weather or act as a supplemental rainfly is the weather is looking really bleak. It has plenty of ways to set it up and holds up to even the strongest winds. Overall, a great product from Kelty." —Cornell Brown
Price: $44.98+ (originally $59.95+, available in four sizes)
12. Up to 30% off a hooded puffer jacket, because I don't know about you, but the only place I want to be during a snow storm is in a super warm jacket with a hood pulled down to my eyeballs.
Promising review: "Athletic fit, runs true to size. Packs well in a bag, but I’ve had other down coats that seem to pack down smaller. Elastic around hood and wrists comfortable and snug. Kept me comfy standing around in bitter cold wind with a T-shirt underneath. I don’t regret purchase." —Ronald G.
Price: $174.97+ (originally $249.95, available in sizes S–XXL and five colors)
13. Up to 25% off some Gore-Tex bib pants to rock while skiing, snowboarding, or doing any other snowy activities. I guess you can also wear them for fashion purposes if you really want, I would never judge.
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE these bibs. I have not been wearing any of my other pants or bibs since these have came into my life. The zipper around the waist makes going to the bathroom so much easier, and I cannot stress enough how much this feature influenced my purchase. The Gore-Tex fabric keeps me dry and warm during powder days, there's three perfect size zippers on the hips and the legs as well as a chest zipper for a pass!" —Catherine Nunez
Price: $262.46+ (originally $349.95, available in sizes XS–XL and four colors)
14. Up to 50% off a skiing and snowboarding helmet, because keeping that noggin safe should be your number one priority on the slopes. Having fun is a close second.
Promising review: "These helmets only recently got on my radar and I believe these will soon be the top of the game. They are packed with cool features, are very light, and fit super well." —Clay Puglisi
Price: $124.99+ (originally $249.95, available in three colors and two sizes)
15. 25% off a six-pack of carabiners so you can color code your climbing gear like the organized adventurer you are.
Promising review: "Organization can make or break your route. Having your rack organized by color really makes a difference! The neutrino rack pack is the affordable way to do that! Can’t go wrong here!" —Jessica Forsdick
Price: $29.96 (originally $39.95)
16. 40% off a retro Patagonia fleece jacket, because Patagonia fleece is well-known to be both the coziest *and* coolest outdoor apparel around.
Promising review: "Don't let this fleece fool you. It may look just like every other piece, but it has a strong layer of mesh underneath the cozy exterior, so it is built to last. I love the big pocket and color blocking, it has a great retro vibe. It will be my go to camping fleece and I might just wear it around town running errands." —Aliza Mills
Price: $119.99 (originally $199, available in sizes XXS–XL and two colors)
17. 25% off a pair of Merrell hiking boots whose sturdy construction will help protect your feet and ankles from rocks and pokey foliage on your long, strenuous treks.

18. 53% off a set of stakes, because you never know when you're going to need to secure something to the ground. I won't insult you by explaining stakes further.
19. Up to 52% off a foldable chair that may not look like much while you're comfortably looking at it now on your phone or computer, but will look like the height of excess and comfort once you've been walking through the woods for a full day.
Price: $11.99+ (originally $24.95, available in two colors)
20. 41% off a pack of Backpacker's Pantry Pad Thai so you can have an easy meal ready in a jiffy when you set up camp for the night. YES it's a luxury and YES you earned it!
Promising review: "This is the best freeze dried meal I have ever had, and I have had a few. I love this meal so much I have made it at home when I didn't wanna go to the grocery store.10/10 would recommend." —Allison Parrish
Price: $5.90 (originally $9.95)
21. 25% off a pair of climbing shoes that are the perfect pair for beginners. These will help you ~feel the wall~ much better than regular sneakers you've been attempting to climb in and will give you much-needed grip.
Promising review: "If you are new to climbing these are the shoes for you. They are a moderate shoe with good rubber. They have a nice fit and the velcro straps make for an easy to get on shoe hence allowing you to slap that wall faster before all those laces have a chance." —Michael Dwyer
Price: $71.21 (originally $94.95 (available in sizes 5–14 and four colors)
22. 45% off a pair of polarized goggles, because the glare from the sun off the snow sure can be blinding! I'm from Florida, but this is where my research (skiing once in 2010) has led me.
Price: $114.98 (originally $209)
23. Up to 30% off a North Face sleeping bag that's rated for 20 degree weather, meaning in most situations, this is gonna be the ticket to staying warm all night long.
Promising review: "The North Face Aleutian bag is a great option for a value bag with above value features. The versatility of the small side zipper in opening up the bag as a blanket and the interior zippered pocket are both well thought out. The cut is a bit wider than most tapered bags which allows for a more comfortable sleep on your side. Overall, a great bag at a great price." —Cornell Brown
Price: $90.26+ (originally $128.95, available in three sizes)
24. Up to 49% off a Patagonia flannel shirt whose unprecedented softness will have you reaching for it on days when you're active outside or cozying up inside alike.
Promising review: "I love this shirt! Great color, soft and cozy fabric! I'm really happy with the sizing and fit. It is comfortable with enough room to move but not too baggy. Highly recommend!" —erhan ayan
Price: $44.99+ (originally $79, available in sizes XS–XXL and 10 colors)
25. Up to 50% off a daypack that's the perfect for taking snacks and art supplies out on a little hike or just for use in your everyday life.
Promising review: "This backpack is on the smaller side, but that makes it perfect for daily use. I use it everyday to carry my things to and from work. The sleeve in the back snugly fits a 15-inch MacBook Pro. I like the simple design of the pockets, especially the two exterior ones which are sized just right (don't bring things you don't need!) The zippers themselves are big and tactile and fun to open and close. The drawstring design lets me stuff an extra sweater into the pack without a problem. The side compartments are narrow and make accommodating a fatter water bottle difficult, but this streamlined silhouette gives the backpack a minimalist aesthetic I love." —Agatha K.
Price: $69.99+ (originally $139, available in five colors)
26. 30% off a pair of Black Diamond skis if you're the kind of person who owns skis and wants to take advantage of a great deal. Congratulations to you on both fronts!
Promising review: "These skis are a great all around touring ski. I've taken them on a few tours so far and I really appreciate their light weight for the skin up and they can definitely hold their own on the way down. They are definitely happiest in powder and they float very well; even better than I expected for a 105 waist. The skis feel most at home with medium to large turns but given their light weight I was able to make some quick turns when needed. I would recommend these skis to anyone who is looking for a solidly constructed (Made in Austria!) versatile, lightweight touring ski that will save some weight for the uphill suffer fest while still being capable and fun for the ride down." —Graham Dewart
Price: $614.99 (originally $879.95 (available in three sizes)
27. Up to 35% off an Osprey duffel perfect for little weekend trips anywhere and everywhere. The main compartment is even lockable, so your things will be nice and secure.
Promising review: "This bag is perfect for for a day at the climbing gym! Fits all my climbing gear (minus the rope), 40oz water bottle, and extra change of cloths. The front pocket is perfect for all your small pocket items and has a soft liner to keep your glasses nice. The bag is made out of a heavy canvas material that is super durable. Overall a great duffle bag!" —Mike m
Price: $38.88+ (originally $59.95, available in four colors)
28. 20% off a frying pan that'll be perfect for frying up an egg or two on mornings when you're cooking outside. Its foldable handle also makes it easy to pack!
Promising review: "This a perfect pan for frying up the day's catch on a backpacking trip. I use it with my Snow Peak stove. It works great. Heats evenly. Fries up fish or anything else. Washes up easily. Lightweight. Great addition to the backpack." —Jason Wanlass
Price: $19.98 (originally $29.95)
29. 34% off a North Face backpacking pack whose 65-liter capacity will probably be more than enough for trips of any length. Fitting your entire life into this cutie? No problem.
Promising review: "Great pack! Comfortable and holds more than you think. Definitely recommend!" —Matt Ragina
Price: $124.99 (originally $189.90, available in two sizes and three colors)
30. Up to 50% off on a cot if you want to absolutely ball out and sleep like a king while "roughing it." I kid, but after a long day of activity, sleeping on one of these is going to be SO restful and just...bliss.
Promising review: "I love this cot. It offers a very firm sleeping surface. It also folds/unfolds easily. It's a bit heavy at 16 lbs, but that goes with the stoutness of the product." —Dave Keogh
Price: $74.99+ (originally $149.95, available in two sizes)
