The Natural Navigator

The upside of winter is the opportunity to read good books.  I am currently in the midst of Tristan Gooley’s The Natural Navigator.  Even if you never step foot outside of your local park, this wonderfully interesting book has something that can make your time spent outdoors infinitely more engaging.  I have suddenly found myself attuned with the way the hardwood trees “reach” predominately toward their south facing side.  And, while I shiver in this heart of winter I now look forward to sitting on the beach (as if I needed more of a reason before!) and planting a stick in the ground to map the suns arc through the sky.

HOLIDAY DOPP KIT – VIA URSA MAJOR & TOPO DESIGNS

Dopp kit highlights include:

• A triangular shape allowing it to sit upright on small hotel/bathroom shelves, while providing ready access to everything in the bag
• Small enough for the travel light crowd but roomy enough to hold all you’d need to stay looking good on the road (dimensions: 11″w x 5.5″h x 5.5 d)
• The pack cloth lining is water-resistant making cleaning a snap and the wrist strap makes it easy to carry
• Handmade from 1000d CORDURA® fabric with coated pack cloth, sturdy YKK zipper, parachute cord hook loop in the USA (in a LEED-certified building no less)

The four Ursa Major products in this kit – as featured in our Big Kahuna set – work together to offer a simple yet robust daily skin care regimen - everything a man needs to develop and maintain clear, healthy, comfortable skin – minus all the irritating/unhealthy synthetic chemicals found in conventional products.

1. Fantastic Face Wash (8 fl oz)
2. Stellar Shave Cream (5.3 fl oz)
3. 4-in-1 Essential Face Tonic (8 fl oz)
4. Fortifying Face Balm (2.5 fl oz)

5% of sales on these kits will fund the preservation of essential winter grazing habitat for the American Bison (funds will be matched by The Orvis Company – more info here).
