Hiking, camping, skiing, snowboarding, and climbing essentials can be costly, but the cost shouldn’t keep you from enjoying the great outdoors, whether you’re a seasoned backpacker or new to camping. Stock up for your next trip while you can score quality goods on the cheap. Tents, sleeping bags, hiking packs, camp chairs, GPS devices — you name it, there’s probably going to a deal on it during Cyber Monday and Cyber Week. Even better, they’re coming from the top brands in the industry: REI, Backcountry, Columbia Sportswear, Patagonia, Black Diamond, Marmot, and more. We’re scouring your favorite retailers for the best online deals and listing them here in one convenient place.

Best Cyber Monday deals on outdoor gear

What to know about Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday is December 2, the Monday after Thanksgiving. However, Cyber Monday is more than a one-day “holiday” — it has become quite the phenomenon. The best discounts will be available on Monday, but we’ll continue rounding up deals through Cyber Week, which stretches to Sunday, December 8.

How do you know if a Cyber Monday deal is good? Well, we’ll only feature the best, so if a product is on this page, it’s from a trusted source. It also helps to Google the product name to compare reviews and prices.

A quick note about REI, one of our favorite retailers for outdoor gear: REI does not participate in Black Friday. Instead, the nationwide co-op has been encouraging would-be shoppers to #OptOutside since 2015. As a result, we didn’t see any Black Friday sales from REI, but we are still anticipating some great deals for Cyber Week.

Aventon goes all in on smart security and connectivity on Level 3 commuter e-bike
Aventon Level 3 right profile with Queen Mary in the background.

Aventon invited me to a pre-launch press briefing on its new Level.3 commuter e-bike in Long Beach, California. The Level.3 has several significant upgrades from the Level.2, including increased range and an adjustable suspension seat post, but the greatest upgrade is the Aventon Control Unit (ACU).

The ACU is a proprietary technology that incorporates 4G, Bluetooth connectivity, and GPS tracking. It enables a host of security, convenience, and personalization features. The Level 3 isn't the first Aventon model with the ACU; the Abound SR utility and cargo e-bike was the initial ACU-equipped e-bike.

Aventon launches Abound LR super-cargo smart e-bike
Aventon Abound LR left rear three-quarter view facing Long Beach harbor.

Aventon announced the Abound LR e-bike, a longer alternative to the Abound SR and original Aventon Abound cargo e-bike lineup. During a pre-launch press briefing for the Abound LR in February, Aventon characterized the Abound SR as an all-purpose utility and cargo bike and the Abound LR as a cargo carrier for families and a possible replacement for a second car.

The new long-rack LR version shares the short-rack SR's technical and ACU-based smart features and most physical details, except length and weight. The Abound LR is 8 pounds heavier and 7.1 inches longer than the SR. The two new Abound models are similar to the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban, two other vehicles built for the same purpose; one's just longer.
