Morsel

Morsel created an innovative and highly functional Spork and Spoon for camping and backpacking with a useful shape and extra long length that makes them ideal for eating out of dehydrated food packs.

They retail for $12.95 or come as a set (spoon/spork or sporks) for $25.90.

Thoughts => I did a camping trip down to Havasu Falls in November and hated that my hands got messed up when eating out of a dehydrated food container. Their XL design and strength, along with the asymmetric shape would have been highly appreciated. I am looking forward to trying them out on the trail and campsite.

Gear Aid

Gear Aid is expanding its line of Adventure Tools with the launch of four new products: Camp Carabiner, Camp Line Kit, Taut Line Kit, and Carabiner Light Kit. These unique tools are interchangeable and easy to use, enhancing the outdoor experience for adventurers of all ages. The suggested retail price ranges from $11-$30.

With the Camp Carabiner, quickly suspend gear with knot-free ease. Featuring GEAR AID’s signature twist-and-clip design, attaching backpacks, gravity filters, lanterns, and other gear securely on a paracord has never been easier. Just thread cord and twist. Once anchored, it won’t slip off. Each carabiner swivels 360° and can hold up to 25 lbs. For a complete system, use the Camp Line Kit, which includes two Camp Carabiners, 30 ft of reflective 550 Paracord, and two Line Tensioners. If carabiners are unnecessary, use the Taut Line Kit to make a clothesline in no time and dry towels, life jackets, wetsuits or booties. This kit includes the GEAR AID 50 ft reflective 550 Paracord and four Line Tensioners. The innovative Line Tensioners feature numbered slots, so a simple figure 8 knot is all that’s needed to hang a taut line.

For adventurers that are active at night, GEAR AID offers the Carabiner Light Kit. Illuminate the campsite, trail or sidewalk with this multipurpose and rechargeable LED light. Use it as a mini lantern, flashlight, signal or nightlight. An included webbing adapter easily mounts the light on backpack straps for lighting on the go. The light is detachable from the carabiner, so when lighting is no longer required, it can be used as the Camp Carabiner to simply hang up gear.

Rumpl

Rumpl has the new NanoLoft Puffy Blanket, and the Original Puffy Blanket utilizes post-consumer recycled materials and plant-based coatings, the Puffy Poncho gets the NanoLoft insulation, and their Shammy Towels get some fun new colors.

NanoLoft Puffy Blanket

Rumpl’s first-ever down alternative using synthetic insulation made from 100% post-consumer recycled content. It features 100% post-consumer recycled 20D ripstop and plant-based Teflon Ecoelite DWR coating, and each blanket is made from 60 discarded plastic bottles. It offers warmth and functionality equivalent to conventional down, without the animals.

Original Puffy Blanket

The Original Puffy Blanket is now made using 100% post-consumer recycled materials. They’ve overhauled every trim and detail of our most popular blanket for superior functionality and form-factor. The new upcycled hollow-fiber fill adds more loft and improves packability, and it’s treated with plant-based Teflon EcoeLite DWR coating for maximum water repellency.

Puffy Poncho

The Puffy Poncho is more than a poncho, it’s part blanket, sleeping bag, and jacket, and is excellent for camping, sitting around at home, festivals, etc. It has a waterproof shell on the shoulders and hood to help in inclement weather, big front kangaroo hand pocket and packs down into the front pocket. This year it gets some more fun colors and is insulated with new NanoLoft insulation.

Towels

They added a slew of fun new colors to their Shammy Towels and Clean-Up kits.
