I am needing to buy some camping gear in the next year or two. Husband, Me, and toddler.

What is your favorite companies? Maybe not a name brand or maybe a name brand? What has worked the best for you? What has made it through trip after trip?

I really love backpacking and I want to take our daughter out for some good rough weekends, especially while she is still young so she grows up passionate about the wilderness.

I love to hear what brands have held up so well. Lots of stuff looks "purty" but I would love to hear some real-life testimonials, like what you mentioned about the Kelty.

We've been using the same gear for ages, nothing high-tech except for a nice Kelty kid pack that was a gift when our 1st daughter was born. It has carried 3 kids and packed hundreds of pounds of elk meat out of the woods without showing any wear!
If I were in the market for new stuff, though, I'd first go to UpsideOver (www.upsideover.com) - lots of good stuff for family outings.
