Satmap Active 10 Plus

£380.00

The Active 10 Plus is a beefed-up Active 10 and, with a new rechargeable battery conversion kit, it’s a real contender and definitely the best of the OS mapping- compatible devices (all national parks 1:50,000 scale at £50; or £80 per national park at 1:25,000; or user selections available). Its strength is its huge screen, which gives superb definition, but ...

Vaude Power Odyssee XT 2009

£375.00

Some of my most sleepless nights outdoors have been when the winds have been so strong that the tent either flattened against my face and sprang back each time a gust swept across, or the tent poles snapped because they were not flexible enough to bend under the pressure of a gust. Either way, high winds can ruin your night.But ...

Hilleberg Soulo 2009

£455.00

The Hilleberg Soulo tent is built to withstand the worst weather and it comes with features to let the occupant sit out the storm in reasonable comfort. It pitches as one, with externally attached poles. It’s free-standing, but has a dozen peg and double guy points all the way round for security (in a raging blizzard it hardly flinched). There’s ...

Nikon D60 2008

£440.00

Digital SLR cameras offer better image quality, faster performance and more creative options than a compact, and the Nikon D60 is a great example. It’s one of the smallest D-SLRs available, but it still has a solid feel, with a large handgrip. It’s not daunting to use, either – the options menu is very straightforward to navigate and although there ...

The North Face Modulus

£400.00

This winter jacket weighs just 586g (men’s size M); Gore-Tex Pro Shell fabric offers extremely good levels of waterproofness and breathability; stretch panels; four spacious chest pockets; long pit zips; brushed polyester collar lining; excellent fit and movement on hood. But the price is way out of line compared to similar jackets we looked at; front zip doesn’t get external ...

Terra Nova Voyager

£300.00

This two-person tent from Terra Nova is easy to pitch, stable, even in very poor weather, and light enough for one person to carry, let alone two. The interior is quite cosy, especially at the foot end, but the front porch is a useful size and there’s a small storage space at the rear, too. Packed weight: 2.2kg Dimensions: 14x52cm ...

Garmin Etrex Vista CX

£300.00

This GPS unit from Garmin beats the competition hands down for PC compatibility – it really is simple. Memory-Map routes can be downloaded from your computer straight to the unit with one mouse-click, and tracklogs can be uploaded back to the mapping software in exactly the same way. The menus are extremely intuitive with plenty of customisable settings, and the ...
