Anker SOLIX EverFrost 2 Electric Cooler

Whether gearing up for a multi-day wood land getaway or a sun-soaked afternoon on the Jersey shore, this mighty 58L electric cooler allows thirsty adventurers to ditch the ice. It features two compartments and a temperature range of -4 to 68 degrees F, thus users can cool and freeze simultaneously. Juice the battery via solar, AC, car socket, or USB-C for a 52-hour charge (or add a second battery to double the time), or remove the battery to use as a power bank for your phone or other devices. $800+

Lugging heavy watercrafts to the lake can be a laborious task, but this portable kayak eases the chore. Compact and lightweight, the 17-pound vessel packs down to the size of a carry-on suitcase for painless transport, easily sliding into a car trunk, backseat, or overhead bin on a plane. Once lakeside, it assembles in less than a minute. $499

Porsche eBike Sport

First released in 2021, Porsche’s eBike line spans two varietals: the city-slicking Sport, and the mountain ready Cross. This year, the Sport arrives with a slate of performance upgrades that prep the urban cruiser for light off-road action, so pilots can take the same pair of wheels from the thoroughfare to the trails. Its feather light carbon frame is equipped with a new Fox Float 34 Performance Elite suspension fork to tackle rougher terrains, and the wheels, handlebar unit, lights, and brakes have all been enhanced, too. $10,920

Matador Freerain22 Waterproof Packable Backpack

This one packs down to the size of a small speaker when in tow, then expands into a 22L daypack for trail treks or mountain climbs. It’s 100% waterproof, even in torrential downpours, keeping your goodies safe and dry when inclement weather strikes (just ensure the rolltop is rolled at least three times). A removable hip belt, adjustable sternum strap, and ultra-lightweight shoulder straps provide comfort, while UHMWPE reinforced panels promise mighty durability. $100

Cinch Kitchen Cruiser Camping Kitchen

A portal grill is a mainstay of any intrepid chef’s camp cache, but this full-scale kitchen-in-a-box ups the ante. Crafted of ultra-light weight space-grade aluminum, the setup clocks in at two-feet wide when not in use, then unfolds to offer stations for prep, cooking, and cleaning, plus integrated bins and drawers for storage. Rib-eye puttanesca under the stars? Coming right up. $449
