With over 83,000 miles of streams & rivers, a 232 mile section of the Appalachian Trail, at least 6 other trails exceed 100 miles and a $3 billion hunting and fishing industry – Pennsylvania is a ripe ecosystem for outdoor gear & equipment companies. This is why the 
reknown Cabelas opened one of its few East Coast stores in Hamburg, Pa.
It is also why Williamsport based EQUINOX has grown substantially since opening production in 1986. Equinox is one of the very few companies manufacturing outdoor equipment in Pennsylvania – despite the healthy outdoor culture that sends millions of hikers, hunters, fishermen (and women) and other recreationists into the nether corners of our great state.
The company has ~30 employees who take care of everything from product design to sewing and marketing. If you’ve shopped for a lightweight backpack, climbing gear, or even a dufflebag - you’re familiar with Equinox and perhaps, you’ve noticed the “Made in the U.S.A.” proudly stamped on most of its products. The company sells backpacks, bags, gaiters, outdoor apparel, blankets, pillows, sleeping bags and many other items to suit your outdoor needs. You can browse their selection at Campmor or check out their recently redesigned, superb website for more information on the great little Pennsylvania company. Company Website.
Please consider them the next time your filling slots under the Christmas tree or out searching for a new edition to your collection. They would certainly appreciate your business and their items are all fairly priced.
