Can beginners rent gear too?

Absolutely. Local lenders often cater to all experience levels and may offer advice on what to pack.

Do I need to reserve gear in advance?

It's recommended to reserve in advance, especially during peak seasons or weekends, to ensure availability.

Can I rent for multiple days?

Yes, most lenders allow multi-day rentals.

What backpacking gear can I rent locally?

You can rent backpacks, tents, sleeping bags, stoves, water filters, and trekking poles from GeerGarage's peer-to-peer rental platform.

Do snowshoe rentals include poles or additional gear?

No additional gear is not included. We highly recommend that you add ski poles or trekking poles to your order along with the snowshoe rental.

What should I pack for a snowshoeing trip?

Packing thoughtfully ensures a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable snowshoeing experience. Here’s an in-depth guide to the essential items you should bring:

  1. Water and Hydration:Staying hydrated is critical, even in cold weather. Bring a reusable water bottle or hydration pack. For longer trips, consider insulated bottles to prevent water from freezing.

  2. Snacks and Food:Pack high-energy snacks like trail mix, energy bars, or dried fruit. For longer outings, include sandwiches or other easy-to-carry, non-perishable meals. Food helps maintain energy levels in cold conditions.

  3. Layered Clothing:

    • Base Layer: Moisture-wicking fabric (like merino wool or synthetic materials) to keep sweat away from your skin.

    • Mid Layer: Insulating layer (fleece or down) to retain heat.

    • Outer Layer: Waterproof and windproof jacket and pants to protect against snow and wind.

    • Socks: Wear thick, moisture-wicking socks to keep your feet warm and dry. Consider packing an extra pair in case your feet get wet.

  4. Gloves and Hat:

    • Gloves or Mittens: Insulated, waterproof gloves are essential for keeping your hands warm. Consider bringing a lightweight liner glove for dexterity during breaks.

    • Hat: A warm, snug hat that covers your ears is crucial. A lightweight, breathable option is best for active movement.

  5. Sunglasses and Sunscreen:

    • Snow reflects sunlight, making sunglasses essential to protect your eyes from glare. Choose polarized lenses for better visibility.

    • Apply sunscreen to exposed skin, even on cloudy days, to prevent sunburn from UV rays reflecting off the snow.

  6. Safety Gear:

    • First Aid Kit: Carry a compact kit with bandages, antiseptic, pain relievers, and any personal medications.

    • Navigation Tools: Bring a map, compass, or GPS device to stay on track, especially if you’re venturing into less-marked trails.

  7. Dry Bag:

    • Use a waterproof dry bag to store essentials like your phone, wallet, and snacks, keeping them protected from moisture.

  8. Optional but Useful Items:

    • Trekking Poles: Helpful for balance and stability on uneven terrain.

    • Gaiters: Keep snow out of your boots and pants, especially in deeper drifts.

    • Hand and Toe Warmers: Disposable warmers can be lifesavers on especially cold days.

    • Headlamp: Essential for early starts or if your trip extends into dusk.

By preparing with these items, you’ll stay warm, comfortable, and ready to enjoy the beauty of snowshoeing in the trails near Redmond. Adjust your pack based on the trail conditions and the duration of your trip for an even better experience.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

Yes - deposits are required for all rentals on GeerGarage.

Are there age restrictions for renting gear?

Yes, we require renters to be at least 18 years old. Minors may need to be accompanied by an adult or have a guardian's consent.

Can I rent gaiters for both hiking and winter activities?

Yes, gaiters are versatile and can be used for both hiking and winter activities. They provide protection against debris, snow, and water, making them a valuable piece of gear for a variety of outdoor pursuits.

Here are some specific scenarios where gaiters can be beneficial:

  • Hiking: Gaiters can keep dirt, rocks, and other debris out of your boots, especially on trails with loose gravel or muddy conditions.

  • Winter Hiking: Gaiters can help keep snow and ice out of your boots, providing warmth and dryness.

  • Snowshoeing: Gaiters can protect your boots from snow and ice, preventing them from getting wet and cold.

  • Backpacking: Gaiters can be useful for protecting your boots from brush and debris on backcountry trails.

By renting gaiters, you can enhance your outdoor experiences and stay comfortable and protected, regardless of the weather conditions.

Are your microspikes compatible with most hiking boots?

Yes, our microspikes are compatible with most hiking boots. They are designed to fit a wide range of boot sizes and styles, including hiking boots, trail running shoes, and winter boots. The adjustable straps and flexible design ensure a secure and comfortable fit.

Are the trekking poles adjustable for different heights?

Yes, our trekking poles are adjustable for different heights. This ensures a comfortable and ergonomic fit for all users. By adjusting the length of the poles, you can optimize your stride, reduce strain on your joints, and improve your overall hiking experience.
