The recommendations in this list are for the items that we think often get overlooked in favor of more cliche and ultimately useless gifts.

The gifts here are practical, not crazy expensive, and fall into the “they probably wouldn’t buy it for themselves, but they’ll love that they have it when they need it” sorta vibe.

We have also made a shoppable list of these gift ideas and a few extra ideas which you can find here.

[TEMPORARY UPDATE: March 2024]
We’re interested in improving our articles, felt like I’ve kinda hit a wall lately.

Do you as readers/writers have any suggestions on how to improve our articles?

More photos? More story? Longer Posts? Shorter Posts?

Drop a suggestion in the comments below, or message us on IG. Thanks!

1. Extra Batteries

Pretty simple. They aren’t the flashiest gift out there, but man are they useful. Extra batteries can make a remote trip worry-free. Also, sometimes they can be a bit more expensive than we would prefer, so having someone else gift us a battery can be a really thoughtful and useful gift.
