We talk about everything outdoors and the gear that goes along with it. Interviews with people from the hiking, backpacking, kayaking, and skiing world as well as hunting and fishing. From Outdoor Gear Made in the USA to one person startups and Kickstarter campaigns, OGP hopes to bring you the best information on gear and relevant news in the outdoor world. Also, we like to talk about conservation and how we can all work together to retain the wilderness areas we all want to use. Hunters and thru hikers are more similar than most people think. Hosted by Stephen and Seth, most of the time.
If you are someone that wants to get those amazing aerial shots in the remote locations you backpack and hike, please listen to some of the rules around flying drones in those areas.
In this episode, Seth talks about companies that provide ready to eat food for backpacking, camping, and emergencies.
Today I talk about some of the recent Amazon purchases I made. I bought most of the best selling in knives in various categories and for the mos part I dont think they are good.

On the show today Seth talks about 2 of the best general use backpacks on the market. Both are made by 5.11 but one is a day-use pack and the other is for longer outings. 5.11 names their Rush series packs after the number of hours they are designed to provide support. The Rush 12 is a day pack, Rush 24 is overnight and the Rush 72 is for 3 days or so.
The 5.11 Rush 12 is a 24L pack and is designed as a day pack. The Rush 24 pack sits in the middle of the ones talked about on the podcast and it is a 37L pack and is great for overnight trips.
Today Seth talks about 2 of the best flashlights on the market.
Olight makes some of the best flashlights you can buy. We both own Olight brand lights and endorse them as one of the best lights you can buy. but if you are looking for something a little more budget friendly, the Sofirn SC31 Pro is also an excellent choice.

In this episode Seth talks about stoves.
Whether you are just going out for the weekend or doing a thru hike, your going to want to eat. There are numerous options to cook with in the backcountry. You can go Viking and build a fire to cook the deer you harvest with your bare hands or you can be more subtle or you can use a 46gram Brasslite alcohol stove. I prefer to be in the middle with an Isobutane stove like the MSR Reactor. On a solo trip this might be more than one person needs but if there are 3 or more people and the weight is distributed, this can be the most viable option. But that is my personal preference as there are many options available that I have not tried. I know many UL backpackers light the alcohol and esbit stoves from the weight savings. We are not trying to say one is better than the other because each is useful in its intended environment.
