For most of us who love being outdoors, once summer hits and the temperatures sore there are a few ways to cool off: hit the lake or hit the mountains and go camping. I have a few go-to spots but one of my favorites is a lakeside campground up in the mountains with an abundance of sites as well as trails, but it books up quickly, normally months ahead of time. I was fortunate enough to snag a last minute cancellation this week, so I packed up the car with some of REI’s best camping essentials and spent a few days among the trees testing them out to see what you should bring on your next camping trip.

When imagining a canyon, many national park visitors would likely picture a wide expanse of land stretching out below them, like the famous view from the top of the Grand Canyon. That's not what you can expect when you visit the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park in Colorado. This surreal canyon is deep and narrow, like a thin, jagged slice carved out of the cliff by the Gunnison River, roaring almost 3,000 feet below. It gets its name, Black Canyon, not from the color of the ancient rock that makes up its walls, but from the deep, dark shadows that often fill the canyon.
