That’s right. We said “free.” And “win” and “stuff.” And “Yakima.”

Only one requirement: the pic has to have your friends in it. Your buds. Your chicas. The whole fam damily.

That’s it.

Winners get $200 worth of Yakima stuff. You can apply it to every accessory we make or to a whole setup. Your choice.

There are three different ways you can enter:

]]> You’ve got room for your canine companion, now that you’ve got your gear more efficiently stowed.

But do you have all the right doggie gear?

Whether your mutt just tags along while you climb, or your barking buddies are integral to your adventure, one of these 5 sources of gear should help:

  • Ruffwear — A little bit of everything from one of the bigger brands in poochie performance.
  • Backcountry K-9 — They carry Ruffwear and many other manufacturers in their online store.
  • Wild Mountain Online — Comprehensive online store from the Santa Fe outfitter. Be sure to check out their Singing Dog Blog.
  • Fidogear — Jean Ziegler started this company in her sewing room when she retired at age 60.
  • Ultrapaws — Founded by a dog-sledding couple over 40 years ago. If you’re into skijoring, look here for harnesses and more.

Be sure to let us know in the comments below if we missed a good source of dog gear.

What trips do you take your furry friends on?
