Affiliate gear library

The gear Wildstead actually uses on 10–100 acres.

Trail cameras, chainsaws, UTV / ATV accessories, solar kits, and camping gear — every pick on this page survived at least one Wisconsin season on a working property before we linked it. We earn a small affiliate commission on qualifying purchases at no cost to you, and we never rank a paid product above a better one. If a piece of gear did not hold up in the field, it does not appear here.

Going from a shortlist to a plan

Gear is the start of a property plan, not the end.

The gear on this page is what we use; the workbooks are what we use it on. A trail camera scout, a hinge-cut oak with the right chainsaw, and a marked-up food-plot sketch in the same season turn a project list into a property plan.
