Spring brings plenty of sunny days on the trails(hopefully)! For us, protecting our skin is a no brainer whether we are out on the trail or paddling on the water.

Spring is a great time to add or refresh your kit. Adventure Medical is a trusted brand and this kit is waterproof and has the essentials.

We all done it, head out for a Spring hike, with high water levels and super mucky areas and end up with water, mud, rocks and sticks in your boot. Spring is when we are sure to pack or wear our Gaiters to help keep your feet dry and debris free.
