3. For the mom with zero time on her hands: A JetBoil

While we are on the subject of coffee, the JetBoil is a must-have to get through chilly mornings. Every seasoned camper knows that boiling water over a gas stove is a long and arduous task. The JetBoil can boil water in 100 seconds—even in sub-zero temperatures.

Whether she’s making coffee, cocoa or a freeze-dried meal, having a speedy boil is one of life’s most underrated luxuries. A JetBoil is lightweight, compact and takes up almost no space but is the ultimate campsite self-care tool.

5. For the active mom: A breathable wind and rain layer

The only thing worse than being soaked by the rain is getting soaked by your own sweat because of a stifling rain jacket.

This jacket is a marvel of modern technology. It’s 100% windproof and waterproof, yet it’s breathable so that you don’t overheat. It’s perfect for layering, or it can be worn on its own over a T-shirt. It can be used year-round and, because it comes in a selection of flattering colors, the special mom in your life will even love it for everyday use.

6. For the mom who is tired of melting her shoes by the campfire: A heated camp seat

There’s nothing better than getting good and close to a campfire to warm up after sundown—that is, until a gust of smoke blows in your face, or the soles of your camp shoes start to get soft from the heat.

For a safe place to heat up, this USB-chargeable camp chair is perfect for on-the-go coziness. Reviewers praise this chair for being comfortable and supportive and for being able to heat up quickly with a portable battery pack.

If you think of wool as being stuffy, scratchy and sweaty think again. Smartwool is known for making super-soft, moisture-wicking base layers that are made from 100% merino wool.

These are machine-washable and, because they are moisture-wicking, Mom can wear these for days straight while staying stink-free.

If the mother figure in your life daydreams of basking in the beauty of our National Parks, she will love a one-of-a-kind piece of wearable art that commemorates these beautiful vistas. These stunning, handcrafted necklaces are each mini works of art individually crafted in earth-clay by Minnesota artist Grace Vanderbush.

10. For the mom who likes her drinks at the perfect temperature: Yeti Rambler

However Mom likes her beverages, they’ll stay at the perfect temperature with this vacuum insulated bottle. The Yeti Rambler is rated one of the best water bottles we’ve tested—and for good reason. 

This double-walled water bottle is easy to chug from, easy to wash, and at a 26-ounce capacity, it has enough room to accommodate “three lemonades, four mint juleps, or one long chug of water,” according to the company. We also love that it keeps hot drinks hot for almost four hours, and cold drinks cold for almost 12 hours.

14. For the mom who likes to feel cozy: A Rumpl recycled blanket

After a long day adventuring, it’s so nice to curl up in a cozy, colorful and sustainably-made blanket.

A blanket is one of those gifts that always comes in handy—particularly if they are specifically made for the outdoors. This lightweight, multi-color, quilted blanket by Rumpl is sustainably made and filled with 100% post-consumer recycled material. We also love that it’s water-resistant, making it the perfect choice to keep warm in on dreary days.
