I feel pretty horrible about asking such a question that I am about to ask. I am looking at getting new items for hiking/camping. Christmas is getting closer!
I normally research everything but I thought I might ask everyone on this board as a 'pre-study'. My work is planning a trip in the Spring for a 15 mile moderate hike and camp on a trail. One of the people going has been on the trail already, so he is pretty familiar with the trail. Most of the people who may go are sit down job people.
The deal is that most people are not going to have many (if any) items to bring. I need to create a letter to everyone to simply suggest things they need to stock up on now.
So the question that I hate to ask since it is such a typical un-educated question, what items should a beginner have on a 15 mile overnight hike/camp?
The person who drew my name for X-mas is willing to spend 100-120 on me. Is there anything worthwhile on Amazon that I could grab now that is of a good brand that could fit in that budget?
