Clemency mentioned in another thread about giving away gear to his son. I too have given away gear to my daughter because she showed a love for camping, hiking and paddling. Nothing I gave her was new, but all in good condition, I think.
Let’s see
BA solo tent
Neo air mattress
Older air mattress
Bought her a 10F enlightenment equipment quilt
Pocket rocket stove
Coleman large propane stove
Kelty tarp
Stool
Assorted cooking pots and pans
Pocket knives
Next month large NF 6 person tent
Next year I’ll drive to Minnesota or Denver and give her the Old Town canoe I bought from Robin years ago.
Micro spikes
Trekking poles
Probably more stuff.
I’m so happy when she “oohs” and “ahhhs” and smiles. She’s so happy and talks about her camping and hiking trips. Her boyfriend is from the Twin Cities and the BWCA is on her radar after our Teton trip a few years back.
So, isn’t it a great feeling giving away gear to a child, relative or friend.
