For us, Yeti proved to be the answer to our outdoor needs as we traversed from the Mojave desert of Nevada all the way to beaches of Oregon. Coincidently, our Jeep adventures (another one of my blog posts!) also sparked our #eckyetilife journey!
BEVERAGES
Probably best known for their insulated containers, Yeti delivered ice cold beverages in the desert and the mountains as well as hot coffee or tea for early, winter morning jaunts.
Cocktails on the beach, thermoses on long treks, and hot tea all day at work, we sure got our use out of these lovelies!
We found Yeti’s outdoor gear to be a valuable companion on many an outdoor adventure. Yeti’s insulated products are well-known for their durability and performance, making them a reliable choice for all of our outdoor excursions, from the Mojave desert to the beaches of Oregon.
Best know for keeping food and beverages chilled, let’s not forget the versatility of the Yeti chairs and blankets!
JUST SITTING AROUND
We actually got both the Camp chair and shorter Base Camp chair. While both sets were amazingly comfortable, the Camp chair was our first choice for traveling with the easy carrying bags.
And be careful around the campfires! They’re not fire proof and sparks will make a small hole in the comfy FlexGrid Fabric seats;)
The pandemic inspired many a person to get outdoors more and we were no exception . . . and more adventures also meant more gear, right? For us, Yeti proved to be the answer to our outdoor needs and thus began our #eckyetilife journey!
All in all, it was an amazing year of Eck Family Adventures and some very cool Yeti gear:)
The pandemic inspired many a person to get outdoors more and we were no exception . . . and more adventures also meant more gear, right? For us, Yeti proved to be the answer to our outdoor food needs as we traversed from the Mojave desert of Nevada all the way to beaches of Oregon. It was in 2021 that we began our #eckyetilife journey!
OUTDOOR FOOD
The big surprise for me was all the enjoyment we got out of the Yeti coolers and insulated bags! Even a trip through Oregon’s high desert to the top of Glass Butte for a bit of over the fire cooking didn’t faze their amazing chill capacity. The shoulder bag hosted the makings of a beach-side charcuterie board sourced from Provisions. And while the Tundra and stainless steel coolers kept us well-supplied on camping trips, the Water Cooler allowed us to carry the crystal clear waters of the McKenzie River with us where ever we traveled.
All in all, it was an amazing year of Eck Family Adventures and some very cool Yeti gear:)
Our Yeti hats generally traveled around in the Jeep for an easy grab, rain or shine. In fact, the hats sometimes doubled as baskets when our foraged treasures were too much for our hands to carry . . . namely cool rocks and Oregon morels🙂 And, yes, we got ‘his and hers’ hoodies in both green and red;) These comfy, all-season sweatshirts layered perfectly for winter beach or reservoir days but were all we needed on a brisk spring or fall walk.

Reminiscing about 2022 and off-road Jeep adventures with outdoor cooking in the Nevada desert☺️
When we bought the Jeep Gladiator Mojave back in 2021, we took off the next day for a road trip to the wilds of Nevada. Our first jeep purchase, the truck model gave us a functional pickup truck but also allowed us to go off-road in places a Jeep can take you . . . lower center of gravity and all that jazz. Nevada desert adventures in 2022 did not disappoint!
On this adventure, not only did Marshall bring out the cast-iron skillet for some over-the-fire cooking while off-road, we brought out the Yeti water cooler as well as the Yeti steel cooler to keep us hydrated and the food cold for days! On the website, Yeti’s inventory is always changing but you can check out their current stock HERE. That being said, we’ve found some of our favorite pieces from small resellers who will often offer a slight used model that is no longer being produced;)
