Oct. 11 & 18: A Gear Swap and a Gear GrabKitsap Gear Swap
October 11, 7 p.m.
Kitsap Cabin, 3000 Seabeck Hwy., Bremerton

If you would like to trade items or share information about how to best pack for day hikes or backpacking, come to the swap at Kitsap Cabin. Directions to the cabin are available at www.kitsapmountaineers.org. The Gear Swap is a great way to learn about how to get started on outings or how to go lighter and a wonderful chance to find a good home for some unused gear or add to your own gear collection.
