About Gearkata

Gearkata exists to allow you to create and save packing checklists for outdoor activities.

If you're looking at this site then you likely know how critical packing the correct gear can be. Moreso, how critical not forgetting anything is. Our gear is often all that stands between a successful trip and a hair-raising epic.

Checklists: they're not just for doctors.

But Do You need an account?
No, you don't need an account to use Gearkata. You can browse, download, print and email any public checklist whether you're logged in or not. You can also create your own checklists without a Gearkata account. However these checklists are only preserved for seven (7) days.

A Word of Thanks

No website is created in isolation. Gearkata was partially made possible because some excellent designers and developers saw fit to release their works to the world for public use.

Some buttons on this site are generated via Michael Henriksen's CSS3 Buttons.

The icons used in the grey buttons throughout this site are from P.J. Onori's Iconic set.

Gearkata supports Gravatar icons. If you aren't using Gravatar, you should check it out.

Who's Behind This?
