Three Ideas.
#1 is REI (REI: Deals on Outdoor Gear, Equipment and Clothing for Camping, Cycling, Fitness, Hiking, Kayaking and More) a big supplier of high grade camping/backpacking/climbing equipment and they rent most of it at almost any of their stores. Check their website for one near you.

# 2 some Military surplus stores also have rental equipment.

#3. Some local stores will let you rent gear. Try going through the phone book and calling a few up. Rates may vary between stores.

If you can narrow down where you are heading to or where you are coming from I could better help. My spouse is from CA (I am from MD, odd mix right?) and I am sure I could ask him for a couple of places that his sister hits up (she still lives out west).
