Give the ‘Gift of Go’ This Year With 25% Off Hydro Flask Water Bottles and More

This year has inspired more of us than ever to get outdoors and explore. We’re hiking, camping, road-tripping, boating, and RV’ing in record numbers. All that exploring requires the right gear. From essentials like water bottles and daypacks to even-more-essentials like outdoor coffee mugs and insulated wine tumblers, Hydro Flask has your back. Hydro Flask’s 2020 holiday gift guide is encouraging you to give the Gift of Go. Whatever “go” means to you — whether you’re a backcountry explorer, park picnicker, weekend warrior, or urban commuter — there’s an “on-the-move” gift for you, your friends, and family. True to the brand’s roots, most of the products are designed to keep you well hydrated (it’s in the name). But, there are plenty of niche gifts for coffee drinkers, mobile wine connoisseurs, and every beverage lover in-between.

The last decade has seen an explosion in tech innovation in the RV and travel trailer industry. With batteries and mobile solar setups getting cheaper, better, and more ubiquitous, many of today's recreational vehicles are finally capable of keeping up with the demands of today's tech-obsessed travelers. Case in point: Coast's all-new Model 1. It's a solar-powered travel trailer designed to take you just about anywhere without having to leave your gadgets behind.
Get the details on Coast's Model 1 solar electric trailer

From afar, the exterior of the Model 1 has the same recognizable silhouette as many of today's premium travel trailers. But, decked in jet black or two-tone black-on-white (it's also available in all white), it feels sleeker, more modern, more ... premium. The glossy shell appears vaguely futuristic, a hint of the solar-heavy tech that lies beneath. The genuine composite structure is made by, in Coast's words, "combining differing fully recyclable, re-purposable, and environmentally friendly natural components [that are] virtually waterproof."

Camping hacks: Is Vaseline the secret to an incredible campfire?
Want a great campfire? Pack vaseline
A campfire.

Vaseline, also known as petroleum jelly, is a versatile product widely used for everything from skin care to squeaky hinges. But did you know that it can also be a great fire starter? Getting that fire started is a crucial skill for camping enthusiasts for warmth, cooking, and campsite ambiance. This fire starting hack is one that seasoned campers swear by. Is this common household item the ticket to an incredible campfire? Here's everything you need to know.
How to use Vaseline to start your campfire

At its core, Vaseline is a blend of mineral oils and waxes, which creates a semi-solid jelly-like substance.
