Outdoor Gear Rentals at Peace Outfitters

As the days get longer and warm weather continues to set in around Northern Arizona, summer camping, hiking, and backpacking season is in full swing. From the red rock desert of Sedona to the ponderosa pine forests of Flagstaff and the San Francisco Peaks to the allure of the Grand Canyon, this magical region offers something for everyone this time of year. Accordingly, Peace Outfitters is excited to offer something for everyone too. With a wide variety of camping, hiking, backpacking and even some water sports rentals, we want to help anyone fuel their adventures in Northern Arizona. Furthermore, as we seek to expand our rental options, we hope our rental program can provide more flexibility for any kind of traveler – without breaking the bank.

Why Rent Gear from Peace Outfitters?

There are many benefits to renting gear versus purchasing it. Foremost, gear rentals provide an easier, more affordable, lower risk option to those who are new to camping, hiking, and backpacking. These people may not want to spend the money on activities to which they are not fully committed yet—or perhaps, the processes of researching and purchasing gear simply feels to daunting at the current moment. Renting gear allows these individuals to test out different gear and setups to know not only what they are getting themselves into but also what kind of gear they may want (or not want) to purchase when they are ready. 

Another benefit of renting is the ease of acquiring gear in-situ. Some folks may have all or pieces of a backpacking kit but are flying to Arizona to hike in the Grand Canyon (i.e., the large numbers of out-of-state visitors to Havasupai Falls). This means they might not be able to fit all their gear with them on the plane, making renting a better option. 

Other times, people simply want high-end gear without the high-end price tag. All these reasons make renting more feasible, and Peace Outfitters is happy to be able to offer rentals for anyone in these situations across Arizona and beyond!

The bulk of our rental program is our a la carte rentals for camping, hiking, backpacking, and paddle boarding. These items cover everything from spontaneous car camping trips in Coconino National Forest to overnight backpacking trips in the Grand Canyon to a day (or even a few!) on the water at one of Northern Arizona’s water holes such as East Clear Creek or Blue Ridge Reservoir.

Future Expansions to Peace Outfitters Rentals

Going forward, we are excited to continue to expand and deepen our rental program. We are working to both modulate and simplify our rental reservation system and processes. Moreover, we hope to soon offer a wider variety of a la carte options, including premium a la carte options that are currently only available within the backpacking kit. These changes will make reserving rentals with us far easier and offer more flexibility to campers and backpackers looking to visit the Grand Canyon, Havasupai Falls, and other destinations around Northern Arizona.
