Ranger Review: OOFOS at Namanock Island

Campground Review (Update): Namanock Island is only accessible by water and is roughly 4 miles down the Delaware River if you put in at Milford, Pa. I have now taken my packraft to the island twice and have had a fantastic trip each time! The sites are maintained by the NPS and are available on a first come first served basis. Also there is no cost! You are limited to one night on the island though as the expectation is that you will continue down river to other primitive sites. They are primitive campsites which include a fire ring and a primitive toilet. The sites are in excellent shape! I have only ever gone during the week so I have not had any issue securing one of the four available sites but would recommend getting their earlier if you intend to go during the weekend. It's a rare thing to camp on an island and Namanock is so serene and peaceful you hear the water flowing gently all night, perfection!

Product Review

As a Ranger for The Dyrt, I get products to test from time to time. At Namanock Island, I got to test out some OOFOS OOahh Slide Sandals.

These sandals are amazing. As a runner, trailrunner, hiker, backpacker, and camper these will now be my go to recovery slide. They feel so soft and comfortable and lend themselves very well to being a quality camp shoe!

I have nothing negative to say about the slides, I've been wearing them all the time and have zero complaints! If you're in the market for a new pair I highly recommend taking a look at oofos!!
