This month, for Scouting magazine’s December issue, GearJunkie collaborated with the publication to assemble a quick gift guide, the “Gift ideas for the savvy outdoors enthusiasts on your list.” Scouting is the magazine for the Scout leaders, not the boys, so these gift ideas are mainly oriented toward grownups. But anyone (Scouts or not) on your list might appreciate the gear below, all of it GearJunkie tested and approved. —Stephen Regenold
