Schmidt's Aluminum Free Sandalwood + Citrus Natural Deodorant for Women and Men
My husband used this scent after I told him about how well it worked for me. The smell is great and so far so good, no more smelly armpits and natural to boot!

I have finally found the holy grail. A natural deodorant that works! I have tried at least 6 different natural deodorants after making the switch die to harmful aluminum options. Baking soda based deodorants made my skin darken and other 'sensitive' deodorants with alternate ingredients just didn't work. Thankfully I tried this and not only does it work but it smells like orange creamsicle :) -

Had the Heritage hash and coffee on a slightly hungover morning following an evening out.
Honestly, quite possibly the best breakfast I have ever had from a restaurant. Peppery pastrami was amazing as was the parmesan crisps.
Will definitely be back the next time I'm in North Vancouver. Some may not like it, but I like that you order and pay at the counter...no sitting and waiting for the bill!

Camp Chef Over-The-Fire Cooking Grill
Nice little grill that I purchased from Cabela's for $30. Good for when you are not camping at a campsite with built-in fire grills. Yes, I have a portable BBQ but there is something about having meals cooked over an open flame. Works as intended... +
Nice little grill that I purchased from Cabela's for $30. Good for when you are not camping at a campsite with built-in fire grills. Yes, I have a portable BBQ but there is something about having meals cooked over an open flame. Works as intended, just be careful about drying off the grill to prevent rust. -

I spent a lot of time researching for the best GPS communication device for use while in the outdoors. A surprising amount of places I go to are out of cell reception due to the mountainous terrain in BC.
The great thing about the Delorme Inreach is the ability to not only send an SOS signal (which yes, Spot devices can do) but also send and receive messages (which the Spot device cannot do). I've heard a few stories of Spot users not receiving timely emergency help due to the lack of communication. Spot contacts your emergency contacts first and decides the appropriate response based on the info they receive from your contact. To some this may be fine, but I do not want my safety in the hands of someone that may or may not reply! The peace of mind to be able to communicate with an emergency team if I am ever in this type of situation is invaluable.
On the non-emergency front, the Inreach has proved to be a great communication tool with those back home. It's nice to be able to check-in with loved ones and let them know you arrived or are planning on staying an extra night. It is really handy as well if another party you are travelling with has a device as you can communicate between each other.
While it may seem expensive to some with the upfront price and the monthly plans, for me it is the absolute best option around. You can also suspend your monthly plan for no charge which is nice. All in all a very handy device and well worth the cost.

I was looking for a BPA-free water bottle for use at work and during my workouts. I love the S'well bottles but at around $50 I couldn't rationalize the cost. Very happy I found this bottle by Mana for $25. Not only does it keep my water cold it also can double as a tea mug and keep it hot for hours. Seems to be holding up well so far and I love the wood look! -

Was on the lookout for something to flavour my water and club soda that didn't have the preservatives that your typical drink additives have.
My search has finally ended with the 'True Lime' or 'True Lemon' Beverage Powders. They come in convenient individual packets so you can make it as strong as you like (one packet goes a long way due to the concentrated flavour). I read that WestJet also uses these on board for mixed drinks so I used this with a vodka and soda and...wow, so good!
