Today’s ultra-light hunting demands have never been greater. With the population growth and increasing demands on our natural resources, hunters are facing new challenges. Not only are seasoned hunters navigating these demands, but there are also more and more non-hunters venturing out to the most accessible and remote locations of our forests.
So, we as hunters and fisherman venture into the depths, seeking solitude with fish and game. Caribou Gear OEC has always prioritized remote backcountry ventures in the design of our ultralight products. From game bags to dry bags and hunters’ tarps, our gear is built for the most rugged expeditions. With 52 years of venturing outdoors, Caribou Gear OEC brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our products. Our gear is designed by individuals who truly understand the demands of the wilderness.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Ted Ramirez, and I am the owner, designer, and patent holder of everything Caribou Gear and Koyukon Gear. Hunting and fishing have always been a significant part of my life. Growing up, it was more than just a hobby—it was a way of life for my wife Sharon (44 years of marriage) and me as we raised our four children.
Much time has passed from then till now, allowing for reflection on life in general. For those who have hunting and fishing as their second love, the evolution of gear has been a fascinating journey. From days of old to today’s modern advancements, the changes in materials and technology have revolutionized the way we approach these beloved pastimes.
Well, we haven’t skipped a beat!
