While some of us can't get enough of sunny summer weather, others can't wait to feel the drop that comes with autumn temps while crunching all the freshly fallen leaves. If you've been waiting for fall adventures, you don't have to wait much longer. But as we wait out the last few weeks of August, now is a great time to take stock of what your outdoor gear look like. We're often pretty rough on outdoor gear, so it's possible some essentials need replacing.
Thankfully, there are some great deals out there that will help you replenish your gear while saving some serious money. Below, we've collected some of our favorite outdoor deals that'll get you out camping, hiking, or chilling in the backyard as we enjoy the changing season.
Best camping deal

Our pick: REI Co-op Skyward 6 Tent
$223.83 at REI
$449.00 Save $225.17
Why we like it
There's nothing quite like sleeping under the stars, or at least looking out from your bug-free and screened-in tent. If you're interested in sleeping in comfort while camping, the REI Skyward 6 Tent aims to impress with its high ceilings that allow for people as tall as 6'3" to stand upright in the tent. Thanks to today's sale price, this spacious tent can be your haven for just $223.83, which is a whopping 50% discount off the usual price of $449.
The close to vertical walls means you'll be living in luxury in the Skyward 6 Tent that can sleep up to six people. Weighing a bit more than 15 pounds, this option might be best if you're camping from the car and don't need to hike in all of your supplies. But the spacious tent can be perfect for families heading out for some fall camping.

Best hiking deal
Credit: Garmin
Our pick: Garmin inReach Messenger
$249.99 at Amazon
$299.99 Save $50.00
Why we like it
Safety should always come first when you're out hiking. Taking pictures of every single mushroom you come across is second. But in terms of safety, head out well-equipped with the Garmin inReach Messenger, which is on sale today for just $249.99, down from the list price of $299.99. That's a 17% discount, or a savings of $50. But having peace of mind that you're always in contact with the outside world is priceless.
The Garmin inReach Messenger allows you global two-way messaging even when there's no cell coverage. With a satellite subscription, you'll be able to stay in contact long after your phone has lost a signal, letting friends and family know you're safe and what your expected ETA back home is. You can also share your location via GPS and should things go wrong, you can trigger an SOS message.
