Members get an additional 25% off on an outlet item with the code CYBER23. This is more than the typical 20% off outlet coupon and there are some awesome items in the outlet currently!
50% OFF! This is an amazing deal. Typically this jacket will sale out or be low inventory after this sale.
This is my favorite technical down puffy. It weighs 10.6 ounces and has 850-fill-power goose down. It has held up on so many backcountry trips and kept me incredibly warm. It also has a more flattering fit than other puffies I have owned in the past.
I use for camping, backpacking, in the winter and around town!
This top rated WOOL sweater is 65% off. That is a deal that is hard to ignore. Especially, since this is a wool sweater. Wool sweaters are a staple for anyone who lives in a cold, wintery areas. This type of sweater can be worn casually to keep warm, but also as a layering piece for winter outdoor sports.
Check out the rest of Fjallraven’s sale at REI.
All Sea to Summit’s sleeping bag liners are 40% off. Sleeping bag liners add warmth to your sleeping bag set-up. This particular liner adds 14 F degrees of warmth to your sleeping bag and weighs 8.1 ounces.
This Exped pad is the BEST DOUBLE sleeping pad for backpacking on the market. It’s so compact and extremely lightweight to competitors. It is a game changer especially for families trying to cut down on weight and save space.
And not to mention that this pad is also very comfortable and quiet! You can learn more from this review here.
Both my husband and I love our Salomon Speedcrosses for hiking AND BACKPACKING (My mother-in-law and father-in-law are also BIG FANS - have owned several pairs). After wearing a lightweight shoe it’s hard to go back to hiking boots.
I love this light and compact multi-tool from Gerber. This is my go-to for backcountry adventures when needed. It only weighs 2.2 ounces and is very compact.
Includes a phillips screwdriver, standard screwdriver, bottle opener, tweezers, scissors, fingernail file, wire cutter, pliers, and blade.
This is a MUST HAVE for any biker. I never go on a mtb or winter fat bike ride without my Crankbrothers multi-tool!
These packable bins are a great addition to your car camping gear to keep you organized. We have loved our REI packaway bin.
This down jacket was 30% off on the last sale, but is now 40% off.
Down jackets are a staple piece of gear. Down jackets have some of the best warmth to weight ratios, which is excellent for activities like backpacking. And this is one of the best-priced down jackets you can get for this age.
Down jackets can also be crucial in adding warmth to layering systems and especially for babies or toddlers who aren’t moving around as much in colder weather (i.e kids in child hiking carriers) or for cold days on the ski hill. I typically would layer a down jacket underneath an outerlayer on the ski hill.
This toddler fleece jacket was 30% off on the last sale, but is now 40% off. This set (fleece jacket and pants) sold out during this sale last year!
And WE love this toddler fleece as a mid-layer in winter, for camping, or just a cute set to wear in the colder months. This item SOLD OUT last winter. Get the matching fleece pants below.
These toddler fleece pants were 30% off on the last sale, but is now 40% off. This set (fleece jacket and pants) sold out during this sale last year!
We love having the fleece jacket and the fleece bottoms! The fleece bottoms went quickly last year. A great deal for a cute outdoor fleece set.
These toddler and kid Timber Mountain Insulated Snow Jackets were 30% off on the last sale, but is now 40% off. I bought this for my son for ski season!
A great waterproof, windproof and insulated winter jacket for skiing or snow adventures this winter! This jacket has matching bibs below.
The matching insulated winter bibs or pants. Get the whole set for less than $100 and keep your skier / snowboarder going all day on the slopes!
Dometic products are expensive! The time to buy is during an REI sale. Currently Dometic is 20% off at REI.
We have been eyeing one of their powered coolers to elevate our camping experience and NEVER worry about ice again.
When it comes to avalanche transceivers I either recommend Mammut or Backcountry Access! You can also get the whole avy package for 20% which saves you even more if you need to get started!
Get the whole avy package 20% off!
An avy shovel for winter backcountry adventures. An item I like to have winter backpacking or winter yurting even if not crossing avalanche terrain!
My go to tumbler! The flip straw and handle plus cup holder friendly bottom is the way to go!
If you follow me on Instagram, you will know that the Nemo Tensor is my OVERALL favorite backpacking sleeping pad. You can learn more from a recent review video here.
This pad is currently a STEAL as Nemo prepares for its spring collection. This is the time to get this pad for yourself or the backpacking person in your life.
You can’t beat the comfort, weight, compact size & warmth. AND ALL FOR THAT AWESOME PRICE!
My favorite technical down puffy. It weighs 10.6 ounces and has 850-fill-power goose down. It has held up on so many backcountry trips and kept me incredibly warm. It also has a more flattering fit than other puffies I have owned in the past.
This jacket went from 30% off on the last sale to 40% off now!
I am surprised I don’t see this jacket getting more hype. This is a pretty amazing winter jacket that can be functional around town but also technical. It’s basically your waterproof puffy that features both down and synthetic fills mapped to the right parts of your body. Down where you need more warmth. synthetic where you don’t. This jacket is going to be warmer than even the REI Magma listed above but does weigh about a pound more than the Magma. Some feel this jacket isn’t warm enough for the category this jacket is in (bigger alpine winter expeditions). This jacket seems to be comfortable with only a light base layer in below-freezing temps and obviously can withstand colder temps with more / heavier layers underneath.
This jacket went from 30% off on the last sale to 40% off now!
This minimalist shell is another great sale item. A minimalist shell is the middle ground between a rain jacket and hardshell. It’s more packable and lightweight than a hardshell but more technical than a standard rain jacket. Minimalist shells are especially popular with backpackers and climbers.
This jacket went from 30% off on the last sale to 40% off now!
This is a great technical fleece for fall / winter hikes, ski tours, days at the resort or around town. I do think full-price this item is a little expensive. Its main competitor is the Arc’teryx Kyanite for $180. But when the REI fleece is on sale, I would highly recommend for its sale price!
This jacket went from 30% off on the last sale to 40% off now!
An awesome-priced parka to keep you warm. This parka has a boxier fit than some prefer, but others love the shape. The boxy fit does allow for better mobility and room for layering.
Other similar parkas will run you at least $100 more around the $300 range.
This sun hoodie went from 30% off on the last sale to 40% off now!
This sun hoodie will go on sale again this spring if you want to focus on winter gear right now. I LOVE THIS SUN HOODIE from REI. I love the scoop shape on the bottom. I have found this sun shirt to be much more flattering than other sun shirts with boxy fits.
This sun hoodie is not an ultralight sun hoodie, but I can still use in temps in low 80 F.
If looking for an ultralight sun hoodie try the Outdoor Research Echo Sun Hoodie (lightest sun hoodie on the market, my husband and I both own these) or the Mountain Hardwear Crater Lake Sun Hoodie.
This sun hoodie will go on sale again this spring if you want to focus on winter gear or other gear right now.
These overalls went from 30% off on the last sale to 40% off now!
You know I love my overalls. A staple for every granola / outdoorsy girl. These overalls are a great price on sale and extremely popular.
Fleece pants are really nice to have for colder weather backpacking / camping. $35 is a great price to help insulate you even more on your cold over nights!

This is another double sleeping pad option for backpacking. AND CURRENTLY A GREAT PRICE. While it isn’t my top recommendation for double sleeping pads it is a great value and insulated to keep you warm.
I also think this pad is durable enough to be used car camping and backpacking.
It’s also an oversized pad which some families prefer.
When it comes to waterproof, wet weather boots I am going to pick XTRATUF everytime! They aren’t insulated, but I just wear with a thicker sock in the winter. If you want the insulated verison see the boots below.
I would recommend sizing up!
The insulated verison. These boots were built for life in Alaska if that tells you how they will handle!
This has been my favorite soft shell the past 6 years! It was designed with high output activities in mind. It’s my main jacket in the winter for ski touring, fat biking, winter hiking, xc skiing since it is breathable but mapped with fleece for some warmth.
This has been my go to backpacking pack, especially backpacking with kids or in the winter when I need more liter capacity.
The padding on this pad is amazing and handles big loads well.
My husband’s go to backpacking pack for the past 10 years.
My favorite hiking reservoir! We use these in all our hiking daypacks.
