Five Star Gift Ideas

For a son who loves hiking and geocaching, there are plenty of meaningful and exciting gift ideas to consider. Here are a few suggestions that could help enhance his outdoor adventures:

1. Geocaching Kit: Consider putting together a personalized geocaching kit for him. Include some essentials like a high-quality GPS device, a geocaching logbook, a pen, and small trinkets or geocoins that he can use to trade with the hidden treasures he discovers during his geocaching expeditions.

2. Outdoor Gear: As an avid hiker, he may appreciate some new and top-notch hiking gear. Consider gifting him a comfortable and durable backpack, a high-quality pair of hiking boots or shoes, specialized hiking socks, or a lightweight and compact camping hammock. These items will not only enhance his hiking experience but also demonstrate your support for his passion.

3. National Park Pass: If he enjoys exploring different national parks, consider gifting him an annual pass that grants him access to various parks across the country. This gift would allow him to further his love for hiking while providing opportunities to discover new trails and breathtaking sceneries.

4. Hiking Guidebooks and Trail Maps: Help him broaden his hiking horizons by gifting him guidebooks or trail maps of renowned hiking trails or lesser-known destinations that he may not have explored yet. These resources can provide him with inspiration for his next adventures and help him discover hidden gems along the way.

5. Outdoor Survival Skills Workshop: In order to enhance his outdoor skills and knowledge, consider gifting him a spot in an outdoor survival skills workshop. This would provide him with the opportunity to learn essential wilderness survival techniques, navigation skills, and how to react in emergency situations.

6. Personalized Hiking Journal: A personalized hiking journal can serve as both a practical and sentimental gift. He can use it to document his hiking experiences, record his thoughts and observations, and perhaps even create his own hiking trails or maps. This gift will not only be a useful tool but also a treasured keepsake for him to look back on in the future.

Remember, the most important aspect of gift-giving is to choose something that resonates with his interests and passions. By selecting a gift related to his love for hiking and geocaching, you are demonstrating your support and appreciation for his hobbies, which is likely to be truly meaningful to him.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
