Osprey Sirrus 30 Backpack

I LOVE my Osprey Sirrus Backpack. The fit is amazing for me and as I am only a day hiker it holds just enough. I have room for my lunch, raincoat an a few extra layers if I need them. It also includes a rain cover which has come in very handy a couple of occasions.

Mini Tripod

This mini tripod it the best for hiking. I toss this in my backpack often and use it for sunsets, night photos, or with a timer when there is no one else on the trail to snap a pic for you. Plus your can wrap it around a tree limb to get that prefect angle.

Suitcase

Packing cubes

$23.99

I am new to the packing cubes trend but I gave them a try on my recent trip to Mammoth cave.  I am now a HUGE fan. They help keep everything organize and easy to find.  They are the prefect solutions if you are a traveler on the move!
