The Bottom Line

Compact and complete is about the best short description I can think of for the GearPods Adventure Gear System. A quick glance at this GearPods Backcountry photo gallery will show you why.

There's more survival equipment packed into this little waterproof plastic container than I've ever seen in this small of a package. It's got just about everything you would expect for the type of system you get.

A GearPods Adventure System would make a great companion to the Trail Toolz Complete Tool Kit and a nice addition to your ATV repair kit.

Guide Review - GearPods Backcountry Adventure Survival System

When you're hard at play you don't want to have to think about, or take up space with, a bunch of equipment that you will only use in the unlikely event something goes catastrophically wrong and you can't get back to camp before dark.

GearPods Backcountry is a system that really caught my attention; it's got many (most?) of the basic things you'll need to get you through an emergency while on the trail with your ATV or jeep or even on foot.

And it comes in a very small, efficient package that makes it easy to carry and it's probably got some items you might already be carrying in your ATV repair kit.

There are several different systems that come in water-tight modular containers that are highly impact-resistant. They include kits for cooking, shelter, first aid, fire starting and others.

Kits come in water-tight plastic containers that can be used with connector kits to make them interchangeable with other kits.
