Okay. Quick show of hands. Who wants to win free gear for a year? Yeah, I thought so!
Gear company Marmot and retailer Dick’s Sporting Goods, have teamed up for a contest in which they are giving away $5000 worth of free gear to one lucky winner. They’ll also throw in free gear advice from Marmot sponsored athlete Angela Hawse for good measure. Hawse is a certified mountain guide with years of experience leading teams across the globe on big peaks like Ama Dablam and other Himalayan peaks.
To enter the contest, go to the Marmot Facebook Page and hit the “Enter Sweepstakes” button. Then, simply fill out the form, and hit submit. Entry is limited to U.S. citizens (Sorry everyone else!) and the deadline for entering is December 24th, which is when they’ll pick the winner. For more information on the contest check out the video, starring Angela, below.
Do they actually think $5000 is enough to buy gear for an entire year? Seriously?!? (Just kidding. It is at least a good start!)

If I could get 5k cash, I'd buy all the gear for life ( buying form Craigslist… why do people still pay retail price ? )
But it's nice to get free brand new gear..
Thanks for the tip Kraig !
Yep, nothing like new gear. 🙂
Good luck in the contest Paul! 🙂
