Just wondering what outdoor gear everyone is hoping to get for Christmas? (From other people, not the stuff you'll buy yourself:D).

I've always got a few knives on my list, but I'm also hoping for a few Hoods Woods videos, a Gransfors Bruks small forest axe, and an anorak from Wintergreen (a leading sled-dogging outfitter here in Minnesota). I've got a Hell Razor coming from Busse, but that isn't really a gift from anyone, simply a fun holiday purchase.

So, what about all of you?
 
I want a Stihl MS 361 chainsaw, a Jeep unlimited, A Polaris 4 wheeler, and some knives. But I learned a long time ago what you want and what you get are two different things.

-Yooperman

You lucky guy. I put a stihl on my wish list but won't get one. I am getting a Craftsman though and that's OK with me. :D

So far I think I'm getting:

Smartwool Lite base layer
Kelty Moraine pack
SnowPeak SS personal cook set
Footprint for tent
Gaiters
Rain cover for pack
LMF Sporks
variety of Mt. House food
Waterproof/breathable pants
 
I don't think I have any outdoor goodies under the tree this year. Who knows. Maybe the Mrs. will surprise me.

I'm usually hard to shop for so I end up buying my own gear. I do like Yoopermans list though. Wouldn't mind finding any of those on Christmas morning.:p
 
I already got a Steripen adventurer with a solar charger as an early gift. Can't wait to get home and charge that bad boy up.
 
Thanks to my day job, my girl is always complaining that there is nothing left to buy me since I already bought it all for myself. :)

I do have some outdoor gear under the tree for her though. Does that count?

Was looking for the BRK&T Bravo-1 but couldn't find one with the handle I wanted. There's always Easter soon, maybe the easter bunny might find one by then:D
