The other tent they're packing along is Coleman's new-for-'05 Crestline four-person tent. This tent sets up in minutes, features a waterproof floor, leak-free and protected seams, weather-resistant fabric, rainfly and a strong frame design. Also worth noting is the trick Variflo adjustable venting system, the Cool-Air port and the power cord port. Oh, and genuine Coleman stakes will ensure that their tents will stay planted no matter what the weather.

At night, the boys will scoff at RV's with their yellowy exterior lights because they'll be lighting camp with Coleman's brightest propane lantern, the Northstar InstaStart. This monster offers matchless lighting with easy-to-use InstaStart ignition, easy-to-install string-less Insta-Clip tub mantle and a metal guard that helps protect the globe. The Northstar InstaStart also comes with its own case to make transporting it easy and worry-free.

One of our adventurers will be sacking out in Coleman's new-for-`05 Granite sleeping bag. This king size bag has ComfortSmart technology (this means it's guaranteed to keep you comfortable), a Comfort Cuff (surrounds your face with softness) and Thermlock (reduces heat loss through the zipper, keeping you warmer). It measures 39x81 inches, has 5 lbs. of Hollofil 808 fill and a cotton flannel liner. The Granite bag is designed to keep the user warm down to 20 degrees F. Our other adventurer will saw logs in the new-for-'05 Colossal sleeping bag. This new bags stats mirror the Granite's stats, except it's designed to keep the user warm down to 30 degrees F. But that's not all. The guys will have happy backs thanks to a pair of ComfortSmart Quickbed twin size airbeds. They have `em inflated fast too, thanks to the a battery-operated Deluxe Quickpump. Speaking of air, they'll also be packing along the 12-volt Inflate-all Quickpump system. This cool compressor can inflate almost anything from airbeds to car tires.

This new GPS 10 Deluxe kit from Garmin will ensure that our Adventurer Boys don't turn into Lost Boys. This trick system includes nRoute navigation software, which is loaded into their laptop computer (it can also be loaded into a pocket PC). This software includes detailed maps and allows the user to automatically calculate a route as well as look up addresses, attractions and services, among other things. This software works in conjunction with the GPS 10, a waterproof GPS receiver that receives satellite signals and wirelessly transmits them to our guys laptop (using Bluetooth wireless technology) to give them navigation capabilities. Garmin also hooked them up with their MapSource topographical maps, which in addition to highways and roads show terrain contour, topo elevations, summits, and hiking and snowmobile trails. Now they have no excuse to claim to be lost.
