$66 - SOG S62 Powerlock Multitool
The SOG Powerlock tool is simply awesome. It’s gear-driven pliers grip like crasy and the high-end stainless steel looks great and lasts forever. It’s American-made too so the warranty is good but probably won’t be needed as good as SOG’s knives are. Down from $105, it’s on sale for just $65.95 at Sierra Trading Post.

$40 - Montrail Orbit Women’s Climbing Shoe
With plenty of boots companies getting into the climbing shoe game preices have been falling steadily for several years. Even better is that great climbing shoes like this Montrail Orbit end up at bargain prices during closeout sales. From Mountain Gear.com the Orbit gets to take advantage of Montrail’s heat-moldable boot technology to make it a super-comfortable all-day shoe. Normally asymmetric (ie: very curved) shoes like this are really uncomfortable for long periods of time, expecially because they never really break-in with all the rubber wrapped around your foot. Not the case with these, just read the MGear reviews.
Aside from being a top-quality shoe, these Montail Orbits are 53% off and available in euro sizes 37.5 - 40.5 (about a US women’s 7 - 10, or US men’s 5½ - 8½).

$29.70 - Gregory Nano Backpack (70% Off!)
Sierra Trading Post is having a BarnBurner sale this weekend. All items on sale are discounted at least 50% for just 1-2 days at a time, with new items getting added each day.
My top pick in the clearance today is the Gregory Nano backpack. This pack is part of Gregory’s “All Terrain” series, so despite it’s daypack appearance it has a sturdy harness and light frame for better comfort and load support. With the trim, 1,000 cubic-inch profile it will make a great climber’s or skier’s pack (though you’re going to have to be creative in carrying skis with this thing, not many straps on the outside to attach them to). Even better though is that it will make a great daypack for kids who want to carry some of their own gear, or even a weekend pack for smaller children not yet ready to lug their own sleeping bag and part of the tent.
Making the pack even better is the $29.70 price, it’s normally $99. Also if you’re in a gear shopping mood and want to add a few more items to your order this link is the: Sierra Trading Post free shipping on $100+ coupon, coupon applied to cart when total is over $100 (NOTE: only this link in the message is a coupon and it doesn’t link straight to the Nano pack, so you’ll have to use this link & then search for “nano” if you want the coupon and the pack).
$5.49 - Wide-Mouth, Lexan Nalgene Bottles
What does every experienced camper have 10 of, but still needs more? Wide-mouth, lexan Nalgene bottles (no direct-links at REI.com, so search for item #402065 for gray lexan or item #664604 for colors).
So why are these water bottles, normally $8+, far better than sliced bread when you’re camping? Even at this sale price of $5.49?
It’s not just because the loop top makes for easy carrying and the lexan material can stand ridiculous abuse without breaking (I have broken a couple of these though, one when it fell 90 feet on to a hard sandstone landing, while climbing. Another broke when it had frozen overnight and I tossed it only 10 feet, to a sunny spot so it could melt while I cooked - apparently ice and extreme cold aren’t friendly to lexan). The real reason you just HAVE to carry at least one wide-mouth Nalgene bottle on any camping trip is because every water bottle on the market seems to have a slightly different-sized opening, but Nalgene’s is the standard that all other cooking and water equipment attaches to.
For example, most water filters either screw directly to the top of a wide-mouth Nalgene, like the MSR ceramic water filters, or they have a cheap (as in less than $5) adapter that fits onto the top, like the Katadyn Guide water filter that my wife and I own two of (pre-marriage camping gear, I may write Hiker Deals but I’m not that much of a gearhead to keep a spare water filter). Also, some cooking accessories are sized just for the wide-mouth Nalgene bottles too, like the Press-Bot coffee press.
Since you need them anyway, scoop up a few of these wide-mouth Nalgene bottles while they’re just $5.49. And since there aren’t direct-links to REI.com products allowed, search for item #402065 for gray lexan or item #664604 for colors.
