Welcome

A black van parked on a dirt road in a desert landscape with a prominent butte in the background, under a mostly cloudy blue sky. 
Well, come on in.

Gear I Use

Everything here has been out with me — on the trail, on snow, or riding around in the van for a year. If it isn't on this page, there's a reason.

What I'm Reaching For Lately

RUX 70L

The thing everybody asks me about. Fair enough — it holds a startling amount of clothing.

SHOP THIS

Patagonia Capilene

Sun protection that doesn't feel like sun protection. I wear it hiking and biking until someone makes me wash it.

Snow Peak GigaPower Tabletop Lantern

No flame, no fuel canister — just a knob you turn until dinner looks good. It runs on a battery, and it's the nicest-looking thing at camp.

UPDATED WHEN I REMEMBER

Shop By Activity

Person wearing a winter helmet and goggles taking a selfie in a snow-covered forest.

Ski Kit

Shells, midlayers, goggles, and the rest of it. Built for resort days in Utah, Colorado, and — yes — the Midwest.

VIEW KIT
First-person view of a mountain biking trail through a dense, green forest, with the cyclist's hands on a Specialized mountain bike handlebar, wearing black gloves.

Mountain Biking Kit (coming soon)

Gloves, pads, shorts, and the helmet I've tested harder than I meant to. Dirt is optional. It happens anyway.

VIEW KIT
A sign welcoming visitors to a campground called 'Oh Beh Joyful Campground' under the Bureau of Land Management in Gunnison Field Office. In the background, there are parked cars, a dirt road, lush green trees, tall mountains, and a blue sky.

Camping Kit

Sleep setup, stove, lantern, and the chairs we end up sitting in far longer than planned.

VIEW KIT
A gravel forest trail covered with fallen autumn leaves, surrounded by tall trees with some green and yellow leaves, and a van parked on the trail amid the trees.

Van Life (coming soon)

Kitchen, storage, sleep. Everything that keeps my van feeling like a house and not a garage.

VIEW KIT
A trail sign indicating the Colorado Trail with left and right arrows, set against a mountainous landscape with trees and grassy fields.

Hiking Kit (coming soon)

Hiking shoes, packs, poles, and layers that hold up from Colorado 14ers to the Colorado Trail to the Appalachians.

VIEW KIT
A person skiing in a snowy mountain landscape with trees and ski slopes in the background.

Everyday Gear (coming soon)

Bags, layers, chargers, water bottles. The unglamorous things I'd notice immediately if they went missing.

VIEW KIT
A smiling woman wearing a green cap with the words 'HAPPY CAMPER' in white; behind her is a mountainous landscape with green trees, a wooden bridge, and a blue sky with clouds.

I write Overland Girl, where I share gear I use on trips... I only recommend gear I'd bring myself.

Some of these are affiliate links, which means I get a few dollars if you buy through them. Costs you nothing. Buys me gas.
