Christmas gift idea thread

[Bmcox86]

So the wife asked me for a list of things of wanted and I couldn't come up with much. Usually I have a list a mile long but I'm drawing blanks this year. Figured we could make a good list on here that might help us all.

I was able to come up with
A new daypack
Benchmade saddle mountain skinner
Tenkura rod setup

What's everyone else asking for

I thought about that and that would be hilarious. It would just mean that I would have to buy the binos to match because I wouldn't want the gift to go to waste.

You'll love it, I have one and it cuts thru wood like butter! Not the smallest packable option but IMO the best packable option in function.

A quality soft side cooler like a Polar Bear. The 12 pack is a handy size for in the truck and they will surprise you on how long they keep ice.

If you've got extremely deep pockets and absolutely positively have to have a waterproof zipper you can try Yeti's version, or get 6 of the Polar Bears.

I'm on my phone but I'm not seeing dimensions on those soft sided coolers. I wouldn't mind getting the largest one possible that could still be used as a carry on.

The 48 is 13x21x13 and looks to be their largest.

Thanks. Looks like the 24 would be a safer option for a carry-on but man, $65 is a bit of money.

Are you set on using it as a carry on? We have checked soft sided coolers lots of times as baggage with no issues. Sometimes inside something else (a tote or duffle bag) and sometimes alone.

Mostly I was thinking about our trips up there to Alaska either for fishing or hunting. Usually we pack the fish/meat in fish boxes and check those. However, we have found that a soft sided cooler makes a great carry on and you can load it down with frozen meat. I think we are usually able to get another 30lbs or more home in the carry-on.
