Every campground has one person who knows where the bears wander, which trail floods in spring and exactly how many marshmallows is too many. In the Rangers collection, that person is covered in fur. Three park rangers in wide-brimmed flat hats and pressed khaki keep watch over the woods, each holding a cold one inside a vintage badge that reads I've Got This… Hold My Beer.
On patrol
Ranger Ruby's Wild Watch stars a bright-eyed ranger with a flat hat tipped just so, big blue eyes and a green uniform shirt with the pockets buttoned. She holds a pint in one paw and a spare can in the other, because a good ranger always packs extra for the trail. The next design gives the woods a red panda in full kit: round-brimmed hat with a badge on the front, a red bandana knotted at the neck, suspenders over his uniform and a bottle held up like a lantern. He looks like he has just finished explaining campfire safety to a troop of scouts and is now officially off the clock.
The old hand
Brutus Bear Ranger is the veteran of the park. He is a stout brown bear in a flat hat, green shirt, suspenders and a necktie, standing in front of a sunburst sky on a slate blue background. He has a pint in one paw and a bottle in the other, and the look on his face says he has personally named every tree on the ridge. If you get lost on his trail, he already knows, and he is on his way with a map and a very patient sigh.
For the one who never leaves the trailhead
This collection belongs to the park ranger, the camp counselor, the scout leader and the weekend hiker who treats a national park pass like a membership card. It is for the friend who can identify birdcalls, the uncle who insists on building the fire himself, and the family member who has a laminated list of every campsite they have ever stayed at. Pick the ranger who matches their trail style and send them into the woods looking official. Remember the one rule of these parks: leave no trace, pack out what you pack in, and never, ever reach for Brutus Bear's bottle.
