Get adventurous with some great gifts for the dad who loves the great outdoors! From camping to rock climbing, backpacking and white water rafting, we've created a guide to all the gear he€™ll need for his next fantastic feat!
Whether he's a land lover or a deep sea diver, we've got the gift for him! A portable GPS navigator will surely keep him on the right track during his treks through the wilderness, and an under water digital camera mask captures scenic seascapes on his next big dive. Equip him with a fancy pocket knife detailed with inlaid red jasper and a handbook with helpful hints.
The Voltaic OffGrid Solar Backpack will keep all his handheld devices charged, not to mention provide plenty of pockets for all his equipment. Let Dad record his travel memories in gorgeous leather bound journals, and upon his return ... maybe a hammock hanging from his favorite tree to rest his weary bones.
Take a look at our slide show for all the gear in our Father's Day gift guide!
Hot In The Hive: I Am A Stuffed Animal Buddy!

So the other day, I was complaining to my main boy-toy that I wished he could be more comfortable to cuddle with. I told him he should be softer, or "plusher", if you will. I wished that he would stop fidgeting and moving around or breathing when I was trying to have a relaxing snuggle with him. He told me that I'd be better off getting a stuffed animal. Great idea! Not a problem! A company called, "I Am A Stuffed Animal", can turn any of us that have a skeletal structure and nerve-endings into soft, pliable stuffed animals that can take on even the biggest of bear hugs. Simply send in a picture of you or your friends' likeness and have a plush version sent back! Besides making perfect snuggle-buddies, I Am A Stuffed Animal Buddies also make unique and fun gifts for friends and family of all ages, even if they aren't usually a fan of stuffed animals. Soft, funny and totally one-of-a-kind, I Am A Stuffed Animal Buddy will soon be the only one you'll need around for a good round of hugs and cuddles ... or use it as a doppelganger to blame any mishaps on!
