How To Take Control When The Weathers Changes: Creating Your Plan B
How To Take Control When The Weather Changes: Creating Your Plan B
1. Waterproof your gear (Gore-Tex is not a solution).
Waterproof your gear because you will carry less weight (as water) and your gear will function better.
2. Use a vestibule.
Avoid your gear getting wet overnight. Get a reliable freestanding tent with
3. Know your route, plan for shelter if possible.
It rained for 4 days in a row when I was in New Zealand but because we knew where the National Park hut was, we were able to start a fire to dry our clothes. Oh, what a luxury!
4. Pack a warm sleep system.
Being wet and cold is a recipe for disaster if you have to camp in the rain. Consider:
5. Extra cover is a godsend.
Even when going out for day hikes it's a good idea to bring along a lightweight tarp in case you get caught in the rain.
DOES ANY OUTDOORS PERSON LIKE GETTING WET?
TNH Outdoors aims to give you the gear that you need so you can focus on the trail.
You need your gear to be simple and functional.
We’ve seen a bevy of moisture issues in our day, even with the most experienced outdoorsmen. While they’re not something to call 911 about, a wet sock or a damp thermal can be the kind of low-level aggravation that slowly saps your energy or drives you nuts.

"TNH Outdoors!" is the sound of a revolution when it comes to the outdoors. The big "gear gap" is between low-quality entry level gear and professional equipment and because we have eliminated the middle man, you now have access to unprecedented value for money and ultimately can explore further with every $ spent.
James from California thinks TNH Outdoors has the right gear for unexpected rain with our Backpacking Tent and Tarp combination.
"Their Backpacking Tent has a 1 pole system that is so quick and easy to set up. About 200-300% cheaper than REI and with a risk-free trial, how could I say no?"

Our founder Che, created our entire product line, including our Tents and Tarps. As an environmental scientist and backcountry hiker, Che had a unique insight into exactly how to get the best out of your gear yet keep it uncomplicated. Che always said “you are in real trouble if your gear breaks out here, but it has to be simple and easy to use”
“The biggest mistake that you can make as a hiker and camper is taking low-quality gear that will let you down” Che would lament. “Yeah it might be ok, if you are close to your base camp or even a campground, but the further you get away, the greater the problem becomes especially when you are thru-hiking”
With this experience, he knew exactly how to create real value for money too. "Eliminating the middleman is a huge saving for our customers" Che would say with a smile on his face. But it would not end there, Che constantly found ways to remove waste and expense for the outdoorsmen and the environment too.
Che began his 12-year Environmental Scientist career in Auckland, New Zealand. But it was when he was hiking the remote backcountry of the New Zealand Alps, the idea for his first major breakthrough came about. He designed a self-inflating sleeping pad that sold 40,000 units in the first year.
Now 3 years later, Che has provided easy and comfortable camping gear to well over 100,000 customers and with no middleman. Along with his mission to reduce 10 Billion Tons of Waste, Che is super proud of how many people he has put on the trail.
“Today, Che’s legacy is being made with over 100 thousand outdoorsmen and women using his gear.”
'To my surprise, we hardly had any condensation on the inner wall of the tent. It's very easy to put up and take down. The zippers seem to be made of good quality. Overall a very good tent..' - Meayle
