Lightrek Hiking Umbrella

This umbrella is worth its weight in gold. Being under it in the otherwise open sun, I can physically feel a temperature difference that makes a huge impact on my comfort level. I will use this for everything from hiking, to music festivals, to Burning Man. A great investment!

Works well in the Arizona desert, sure seems a few degrees cooler under it. The handsfree holder quickly attached to the shoulder strap.

We won a permit to hike the Wave, coyote Butte in Utah/Arizona and it was the hardest hike we’ve been on. It was so hot. We started at 4am because of the heat and it was 101 degrees when we finished. I honestly believe we wouldn’t have made it out on our own steam if it hadn’t been for the Gossamer Gear umbrella and system. We were grateful to have them since we are both in our 70’s. Thank you for such a wonderful product.
