Spotlight: Wildland Coffee Co.
For the overland enthusiast and coffee lovers out there, we all know that making coffee while out on our outdoor and camping adventures can be kind of a pain. Plus there’s no better feeling than waking up outside to a nice warm cup of coffee.
But, carrying around a coffee press can take up some of your precious storage space and just gives you something else you have to remember to pack. That’s where Wildland Coffee Co. comes in to solve that problem.
I was given the opportunity to do some field tests trying out Wildland Coffee and loved every bit of it.
Wildland Coffee gives the great taste of fresh brewed coffee all with the ease of using a tea bag. Simply boil your water, and place the coffee bag in the hot water and let it steep just like you would with a tea bag.
It made the whole experience super convenient and allowed me to enjoy a fresh cup of coffee while out on my camping trip.
I am really picky about my coffee and I’m pleased to say that after trying out their roasts, I especially loved the extra dark roast.
Midland MXT275VP4 Micromobile Bundle
Communications while on the trails is very important not only for keeping in contact with your trail buddies, but also for safety while out on the trails. Proper communication can prevent getting lost on the way to the campsite and even for use for spotting during some of the more difficult obstacles you may encounter while overlanding.
What you may notice is that sometimes out on our adventures, we may be in areas where there’s no cell coverage so it can make communication a lot more difficult. That’s where a GMRS radio comes into play. GMRS radios are by far the most popular form of communication for overlanders as they provide a strong enough signal to keep you and your trail buddies in contact in those places with spotty to no cell coverage at all.
The Midland Micromobile MXT275VP4 Bundle is a great overall GMRS radio kit that comes with everything you need to get a full communications setup on your overland vehicle and performs a lot better than other radios on the market and at a budget friendly cost.
Little Buddy Mr. Heater
Camping is a great way to get outside and enjoy the world around you, unfortunately the weather isn’t always ideal for it. If your overland and camping enthusiasts loves to camp year round, instead of just packing a ton of blankets in hopes of staying warm, the Mr. Heater Little Buddy is a tent safe camping heater sure to make their camping trips a LOT more comfortable.
It’s smaller size also makes it super portable and easy to pack up along with their other gear. Plus it runs off propane so they can use their propane bottles from their camp stove or other equipment and run it when it’s time to get their tent nice and warm.
Devos Outdoor LightRanger 1200 Telescoping LED Lantern
I can’t count the times that I have used my Devos LightRanger and I’ve loved it. every single time. It lights up my campsites amazingly and the telescoping feature allows me to set it up above my head to keep the bugs away.
The lantern is LED and rechargeable so all you have to do is charge and it’s ready to go. Alongside being rechargeable, it actually can charge devices via USB too. For longer trips, Devos also offers a solar panel that mounts to the top of the lantern so you can charge it on the go.

GCI Outdoor Freestyle Rocker
Who seriously doesn’t like sitting in a rocking chair when sitting around a campfire? The only problem is they can be hefty and not at all portable. That’s where the GCI Freestyle Rocker comes in. This portable fold up rocking chair is perfect for any camping trip and folds up nicely so you don’t have to worry about taking up a lot of space or hauling it to your campsite.
Honestly, since it was pretty pricey I had high expectations, and I was pleasantly surprised as it seems very durable and worked just as I expected. It was super nice to be able to just take It out, set it up just like a normal folding chair, and kick back (or rock back?) and relax.
