Picture this: it’s a crisp November morning. You toss a couple of fresh logs into your Esker stove and feel the warmth spread through your tent as the world outside settles into winter. ❄️🔥

With an Esker canvas tent and wood stove, the colder months don’t have to mean the end of camping season. Whether you’re setting up a hunting base camp, heading out for a winter camping trip, or just looking for a cozy getaway to enjoy hot cocoa, Esker’s tent and stove systems make it easier to get out there when the temperatures drop.

Ready to extend your camping season into winter? Stop by the shop and check out our new seasonal Esker stove display, and ask our staff about the best Canadian-made winter hot tents! ⛺️❄️☕️

Staff Test! 🥾

Liam recently took his new AKU Tribute Alp Wide GTX hiking boots out for a proper test in Mount Carleton Provincial Park, tackling the steady climb and rocky scrambles of the Sagamook Trail.

Here’s what he had to say:

“One of the first things I noticed when I slipped on the Tribute Alp Wide GTX boots was how comfortable they felt right out of the box. The leather was soft and supple from the get-go, and I never felt like I was in for a long break-in period.”

Built for demanding terrain, the Tribute Alp Wide GTX features a reinforced toe and heel for added durability, a Vibram Sendera outsole for reliable grip, and the support you need for everything from day hikes to multi-day adventures.

After reaching the summit and making his way back down, Liam came away impressed.

“After a successful summit and hike back down, I was happy to finish the day without any pain or discomfort. The Tribute Alp Wide GTX boots felt stable and secure on rocky, uneven terrain while still feeling light on my feet. I wouldn’t hesitate to wear these on hikes of any length, including multi-day backpacking trips.”

Ready for your next adventure? The AKU Tribute Alp Wide GTX is available in both men’s and women’s fits, in-store and online at BackTrails!

Fall is officially here, but it’s not time to put the canoe away yet. 🍂🛶

There’s no better way to experience the changing colours than from the water. We still have a great selection of Nova Craft canoes in store, or now is the perfect time to start building your dream boat for next season.

We work directly with Nova Craft Canoe to create custom boats built to last for many seasons. Come chat with us if you have any questions!
