Thrifty Hiker: A Blog Committed To Camping Gear
Thrifty Hiker is a blog that was born out of two things: a love for ultralight camping, and a great eye for a bargain! We specialize in reviewing cheap alternatives to big name camping gear.
For years now, ultralight camping gear has mostly been a cottage industry, albeit with a few big-name players operating there as well. The amount of money needed to buy some decent ultralight camping kit, even at a starter level, has historically been pretty eye-watering.
This initial investment can be enough to put people off dipping their toe in the water when it comes to ultralight backpacking. Lately, however, we’ve noticed a big shift in the market.
