$99.99 - Sierra Designs Sirius 3-season Tent
Altrec.com took 29% off the Sierra Designs Sirius tent. Want to talk about ultralight gear? This is a 3-season, 2 person, two door tent that weighs about 4 and a half pounds. Peak height is 39 inches and the Sirius is self-standing. Tent also includes free shipping and sale ends January 9, 2007.
The key to getting the feature-filled, roomier Sirius tent even lighter than Sierra Design’s clip flashlight is a 3/4 fly. That means this is NOT a 4-season or 3.5-season tent, so don’t risk cold weather or snow in this one. Compared to single-wall tents in warmer weather though, this thing will be like a luxury hotel room with tons of mesh and ventilation. In fact, this may be my new favorite hot-weather and summer backpacking camping tent.

Sierra Trading Post Free Shipping Coupon
One of the most popular stores around the web, and at my house, is Sierra Trading Post. Their camping gear selection isn’t as complete as specialty shops like REI, but everything they stock is a on sale or an end-of-season closeout item. Even though Sierra Trading Post only stocks closeouts, they have such a huge selection that it’s worth checking anytime you need hiking boots, a daypack, or even business-casual shirts for work.
Plus, click through any of the links in this post and they’ll automatically apply free ground shipping to your shopping cart once the order is $100 or more (valid until Jan. 4, 2007).
$90.96 - Salomon Women’s Smart Windstopper Jacket 30% Off
The women’s Salomon Smart jacket sports three-ply Gore Windstopper front panels for awesome wind protection. Windstopper is also WAY more breathable then GoreTex. It’s my favorite winter shell fabric since all the precipitation tends to be frozen and getting sweaty is so much more uncomfortable. Since trail running or snowshoeing can build up some perspiration even under Windstopper the back panel is ActiLite nylon-lycra. Front zip pockets keep hands warm before waiting on the curb for the shuttle to the trails and reflective hits ensure passing cars can see you. Salomon also, smartly, built the Smart with flat lock seams and patterns on the back and shoulder areas to make the Smart jacket comfortable to wear with a backpack.
The jacket is 30% off and scores free shipping at Backcountry.com.
$124.48 - 50% Off the Women’s Arc’teryx Sigma LT Softshell
An Arc’teryx soft shell jacket for just $124.48. 50% off and free shipping at Backcountry Outlet on the Windstopper Sigma LT Softshell jacket.
This soft shell is great for winter active sports like cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and climbing. The Windstopper fabric blocks wind but breathes well and the extra venting from Polartec Wind Pro fabric keeps you dry and comfortable enough to keep warm once you stop moving. The Sigma LT is also only 14.5 ounces and not bulky, so it will also make a great mid-layer jacket under a shell or down parka.
