| Home Store Videos Contact Gear News March Gear News! Welcome to the Arrowhead Equipment Gear News, our semi-monthly newsletter about all the gear and going ons at AHE. First days of spring! Spring is in full swing across much of the country and that means it's time to get out for some camping trips. Here are a few things to consider about spring hammock camping. Remember that the nights can still get cool in the mountains. Go prepared with enough layers, proper hammock insulation and a quality tarp to shed any early season moisture. Trees are just starting to grow for the season. Be sure to protect them with wide tree straps so that you don't compress the growth layers. Eat plenty of calories to help keep you warn though the night. A good balance of fats, sugars, and protein is better than just something sweet. Starting a fire can be difficult with wet wood. Practice up on your fire starting skills with one of our Fire Kits, just what you need to practice your fire making skills. Fire Kit $25.00 Planning a thru or Section Hike this year?

Also new this month are out new thermal printed product labels. We have spent a lot of time recently working to find a quality label that holds up to use and meets our quality standards.
