Genius self-cleaning tent pegs
Breaking camp is a skill, and any seasoned camper knows it is best to pack up properly so that you don’t have loads of post-camp tasks to do when you get back home. One thing we’ve always found near impossible to do is pack away tent pegs without bringing a load of mud with us. And let’s face it, filling the kitchen sink with muddy pegs to wash isn’t fun for anyone. That’s why we were super excited to discover NEMO’s genius tent pegs, which have a tethered polymer ‘biscuit’ that you can swipe down the peg to remove all the dirt before packing them away. Even better than that, it glows in the dark so that you can avoid tripping over guy lines when wandering around camp at night. Oh, and the pegs themselves are made from 7000-series aluminium with a Y-shaped cross section, ensuring strong and sturdy placements in all weathers

The idea of NEMO was born one turbulent night on the side of Mount Washington while Cam Brensinger spent a sleepless five hours in a poorly designed bivy. That night he realised how much opportunity there was for thoughtful design as part of the equation of enjoying adventure. And, coming down off the mountain the next day, he resolved to tackle that challenge. Three days after graduation from Rhode Island School of Design, he founded NEMO Equipment.
