Vargo Outdoors began as a website devoted to providing information on how to backpack and offered various hiking checklists and Appalachian Trail statistics. Our site was not a * making venture, just a place to publish ideas on backpacking. It was a few years later, around 2002, that we converted to an online store and began selling backpacking gear, climbing equipment and outdoor apparel.The next leap occured a year later when we began designing and manufacturing backpacking equipment. We started with titanium tent stakes, then backpacking stoves, then a titanium mug and kept expanding. In 2008 we added a dry bag line called the DriSeal Series. Today, we offer about 60 items manufactured under the Vargo brand and have a retail store in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania.Thank you for taking the time to check out our site. It is filled with lots of information and camping hiking equipment, including: North Face Jackets, Patagonia, Mont Bell, Nalgene, Equinox, Osprey Backpacks, Vaude¦. and the list goes on.
