Hunting can be thirsty work, and Timber Hawk has stepped up with the Spike Pack, a storage and Hydrapak Bladder for those heating out in the woods during hunting season. It is slim and form-fitting, allowing wearers to crawl through bramble and brush without getting snagged, and it also features an easy to clean bladder with insulated hose to keep it from freezing in cold weather.
The Spike Pack also offers plenty of storage, including a compartment for medium-sized gear, and a zippered mesh pocket, while the main compartment will allow for wearers to store an extra layer of clothing. So that hunters aren’t without their optics, the Timber Hawk Spike Pack even includes a Hawkeye Bino System so there is need for an additional shoulder harness.

The high-tech world is moving to the cloud, but so too may those looking to camp out. And while maybe it isn’t exactly the “clouds” UK-based tent maker Tentsile has introduced the “Stingray,” which will get you off the ground at night. Currently being refined through a Kickstarter project the Tentsile Stingray is being viewed as ideal for flooded terrain or other areas where the ground is otherwise unsuitable for a traditional tent, but we like to think of it as a penthouse for the campsite! 
We’ve seen a number of action camera accessories that are designed to change the perspective, including a few wearable systems that change the view from first-person to third-person – putting the rider/runner/athlete in the shot.
Roller skis are commonly used to train in the off-season but with one serious drawback – it can be difficult to stop. Without snow to carve into stopping can be tricky. This is why it is said that necessity is the mother of invention, because the need to stop has resulted in the RollerSafe.
Getting away from it all still has its downsides, and those who head out to the wilds on a motorcycle need to worry that it will have to endure sitting out in the elements.
