Just like with my Apparel and Footwear Reviews, in my Hiking Lady Essential Gear Reviews I put to the test various backpacks, water bottles, trekking poles, tents and more! I know how to beat up gear, and as I go on hiking adventures I test gear! When stuff is great, I let you know, and when it is bad, I also let you know!
All of the gear I either own or have borrowed (for the sake of my critical testing! 
). If you have questions or comments on any of the items I’ve reviewed, feel free to drop me a line! Happy Trails!
