Does any one have a good site for buying camping gear. I have found one site, Explorepacks.com. But I am looking for more. Please send me recommendations.

Zunnie4, I'm partial to the www.campmor.com site. Plenty of eye candy! : )

What type of camping do you plan on doing? If it's primitive hiking, REI and Sierra Trading Post are great. If you're going for an easier approach with lakeside camping or State Parks, Cabela's has a nice assortment of gear. Just a few ideas. I'm sure if you search for "camping gear" on google you'll find tons of sites. Have fun!

I do most of my camping off a motorcycle, so backpacking equipment pretty much fits my needs also. I get 90% of my equipment from Campmor and REI. I'm partial to Cabela's Boundary Water II duffle bags, and to LLBean's Mt. Katahdin down sleeping bags. Other than a Sierra Designs Sirius 3 tent (I don't recall where I found it), these are about the only items I have that aren't from Campmor or REI.

Thought I'd add my 2 cents. If you buy from LLBean (great return policy!!!) or Cabellas, some people think the prices are too high. I found with LLBean, and I am sure it is the same with Cabellas, if you get the credit card,and sign up for e-mail flyers, the sale prices are very reasonable. The credit card purchases get free shipping and the (APR)rate is awesome. (Of corse we all pay off our purchases before End of Month:))Also, they have something like LLBean Bucks. But mainly, the sales flyers they e-mail me are very reasonable priced.

Explorepacks.com is a pretty cool site; good priced but they have an expanding selection. Need to grow a bit more; they can find gear for you not listed. That's a good feature. I do most of my shopping at campmor.com.
