Patagonia shoe GIVEAWAY!

Giveaway is closed!
I’m a sucker for all things Patagonia. If I had to choose one clothing brand to be stranded on a desert island with, I’d probably choose Patagonia.
But we’re not talking about their clothes today. We’re talking about Patagonias shoes. I’ve never tried any of their shoes, but they sure have some good looking styles. And if they’re as awesome as their clothes? Well… I would willingly be stranded on a desert island with those too.
So, in celebration of Patagonia Advocate Weeks, we’re going to give a pair of shoes away!
What is Patagonia Advocates Week?
It’s an event that starts today. For every pair of Patagonia shoes purchased at OnlineShoes.com from 10/9-10/22, Patagonia will donate $10 to the Conservation Alliance.
What is the Conservation Alliance?
Their mission is “to engage businesses to fund and partner with organizations to protect wild places for their habitat and recreation values.” They direct their funding to community-based campaigns to protect threatened wild habitat, preferably where outdoor enthusiasts recreate.
How can you win some shoes?
Leave a comment telling us What is your favorite fall outdoor activity?
Winner get’s to choose a pair of Patagonia shoes from OnlinceShoes.com. Choose from their women’s, men’s or boot collections.
..and I will be completely jealous of the winner.
Good luck!

Favorite fall activity in Alaska for me is the Tuesday Night Races! Sept – end of October each week a run through the woods! Fantastic
My new favorite activity is mountain biking on local trails.
Hiking. Or maybe jumping in leaves. How about hiking WHILE taking breaks to jump in leaves. Throw in some warm apple cider post-hike and I’ll be all smiles!
Playing in the desert now that the weather is cooler!
My favorite fall activity is crunching in the leaves on a trail! Thanks for the opportunity
Making Fall foliage crowns and going on fall color/object scavenger hunts with my kiddos. These activities help us get down and truly observe the beauty and changes taking place in the season!
My favorite fall activity is taking my new little baby girl out hiking in the changing foliage!
My favorite fall activity is camping! We just got back Sunday from a weekend trip here in Indiana to Clifty Falls, and Fall is the best time to hike the trails there! -brittanyllawrence@gmail.com
I really enjoy driving up north and looking at the leaves on the way to go pick apples! Thanks for the opportunity!
Crisp afternoon runs!
Campfires in the crisp fall evenings (regardless of whether we are camping overnight or not)
Hiking among the fall foliage, hands down. I love it about as much as I love shoes. Fun give away!
I love fall camping! The weather is perfect and the leaves are beautiful. We also have a fall family tradition of building a leaf pile and jumping into it.
Hiking while crunching through leaves, looking at all the different leaf colors & shapes with the kids. Or maybe fall camping. Or maybe fall bonfires. I love them all!
Definitely climbing up Little Cottonwood Canyon, the white granite and gold leaves are awesome!
I love campfires with hot cider and pumpkin donuts! Fall is amazing… and so is Patagonia. Thanks for the giveaway!

Camping! No special place just where ever we can setup the tent and have a campfire.
I love Fall hiking! The cool, crisp air always invigorates me and my kids.
Walking! Slowly and attending to the sights, sounds, colors, smells of fall. With layers on. And the baby on my back and big boy at my side. Autumn, I have declared my favorite season (until winter comes and I get to ski again!).
My favorite fall activity is taking the “trail” on the way home from school with my three children…the colorful leaves, the butterflies and the giant spider webs that line the trail make it a new adventure every day.
Fall favorites include a hot cup of coffee, blanket over the knees, the Adirondack mountain view, crisp cool air and the sun rising. All of this, of course, on the back deck.
I love going to the pumpkin patch with my kids. We always pick one that’s too big and impossible to carve.
Favorite fall activity? That’s a loaded question. Living in southern Arizona, fall is when we finally get outside. The list: dual sport riding, hiking with dogs, camping, Jeeping…..
I love running anywhere where there are lots of trees. I love the Fall!!!
Definitely climbing in Red Rocks, NV or Zion National Park!

We live in central Az and by the time “Fall” rolls around we are just happy to be able to walk outside during the day (ok, evening) without melting! But I love to go on walks with the kids. And escape to the mountains for some cooler weather and pretty colors ;)
Biking! Roads and off roads!
Hiking or biking through the changing leaves…

Hiking while looking at all the pretty leaves and feeling them crunch beneath my feet. Nothing like it!
I love climbing on top of the hill and see the foliage, collect leaves with my son and come home and bake some goodies.
So many to choose from… steelhead fishing or huckleberry picking or leaf collecting… but my top choice is mountain biking through colorful maples and aspen. Love it!
Hiking in the woods or just around town.
We love fall hikes to enjoy the colours!
Mountain biking during the autumn in Utah is amazing.
I love hiking in the fall. The temperatures are nice & cool, the trees are gorgeous. There’s nothing better.

Ooo, I love playing in the leaves with the kids in the fall and as an outdoor ed preschool-3rd teacher this year I have really enjoyed spiders, bird watching, and soon making leaf crowns!
I love walking or running in the cool, crisp air! I’m not a fan of heat and even mild summer days just don’t have the fresh crisp air that fall does!
I love hiking in the fall. The crunch of the leaves under my feet and the smell is intoxicating!
Thanks for the opportunity.
Hiking in the fall is my favorite! Thanks Lindsey!
Hiking, hiking, hiking!!
Hiking with the kids!!
Canoeing on our lake or down the Blackfoot River. I love looking at the Western Larch change to yellow. Great times.
I love fall hikes, and collecting colored leaves with my kiddos. They spent so many years in CA (where fall was just a slightly cooler summer) that they kinda freak out about leaf piles and all the colors.
PS– Dear Random Number Generator, Oct 16 happens to be my birthday… Just sayin’.
That would have to be mountain biking! Working up a sweat in the chilly air equals perfect temps.
