20 Pieces of Equipment Anew's Guides Couldn't Live Without

Day in day out the following equipment has been in our backpacks, kayaks, and even our shoes no matter the adventure. This gear is often the most worn out, well loved, and traveled equipment we own.

Fortunately and sometimes unfortunately, manufactures and distributors will change or even discontinue the availability of a particular piece of equipment. Because of this, we are listing pieces of equipment that might not be exactly what we own. In these cases, we have drawn on our previous experience and focused great care into selecting what we believe to be an equivalent or superior piece of equipment.

Those items that are exactly what we own are noted by an (*).
