Money spent on outdoor activities annually is very large:
Camping: $143 bill, Water Sports: $86 bill, Bicycling: $81 bill, Trail Sports: $81 bill, Snow Sports: $53 bill,
For all outdoor sports: $646 billion each year
That’s $292 billion more then Americans spend on gas each year
OBSERVATIONS
Winter related activities require the most amount of gear
Usually travel in groups
Gear often packed in roof racks
Multiple bags brought
Main items left behind were primarily leisure items
People don’t often like to stray too far from car, lodge, campsite (homebase) due to inability to transport gear
CURRENT EXPERIENCE
Gear is rounded up and packed into multiple bags.
Then pack into vehicleBags usually in trunk or back seat, boards and skis on roof rack
Once arriving at the location all the gear is unpackedGear is put on (more layers, boots, gloves, etc)
Once everyone’s geared up, the bags get repacked and ready to be carried to final location
Once to final location, bags are unpacked again, home base is established, (Tent set up, fire built, etc)
MAIN PROBLEMS
Inability to carry all gear in a single bag
Difficulty carrying larger or bulky items
Difficulty carrying obtained items when out (firewood, game)
Cramped Vehicle space filled with both gear and people
