Watch: 'Portlandia' Spoofs Our Obsession With Outdoor Gear

How much gear do you need to go on a hike?
Related: Adventure, Pop Culture

By Jim Benning



Once upon a time, people simply walked. Then at some point, if those people were on a trail, we gave that walking a special name: "hiking." People who liked to hike became "hiking enthusiasts," and an entire industry evolved to supply them with gear. Mountains and mountains of gear. The whole enterprise is rife for spoofing, right?

Enter the brilliant minds behind television's "Portlandia."
