Absolute High Quality Products

I purchased an Alpenglow Wander Towel as a gift for my son and (3) Woodland Friends Enamel Mugs for his wife to include in their family of three camping equipment. I LOVE the Trek Light Gear question: If you're not making woodland friends as the sun rises, what are you even doing with your life? These mugs will elevate their stargazing when the world comes alive around the campfire - they're truly that magical! And who knows? Someday that wander towel might rub dry a woodland friend in need and they’ll shout out, “My, that Alpenglow sure looks good on you!”

I ordered the Alpenglow Wander towel and it is beautiful! As it is still cold out here, I have not gotten a chance to use it yet, but it is clearly high quality and the colors are so pretty. I also love the little bag it comes in, which is super convenient. I cannot wait to bring it and use it on my honeymoon in June!

Feel Good. Do Good. Pass It On.

Small Business, Big Heart

We started Trek Light over 20 years ago in Boulder, Colorado with a simple mission: to build a business with heart.

A business that would be centered on happiness, a business that would give back with every sale, and one that would inspire its customers to share that happiness with others.

Today, more than two decades in, our mission continues stronger than ever.

Thanks for being part of our story. Thanks for supporting a business with heart. And thanks for being you.
