PITTSBURGH, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- "I thought there should be a way to utilize a traditional trowel, trekking pole, and stake driver in one convenient tool," said an inventor, from Nampa, Idaho, "so I invented the Hike & Hide. My design not only ensures a trowel is available, but it also enables you to anchor, remove, and pick up dropped stakes when setting up or taking down a tent, dig a cat hole, put out a campfire, and garden without bending and straining."

The invention provides a trowel head for use with a trekking pole. It also would function as a stake driver. As a result, it offers an easier way to set up and break down tents, dig a cat hole, put out a campfire, etc. Additionally, it saves time and effort, it eliminates the need for a hammer when installing tent stakes within the ground, it can be used to retrieve dropped stakes or camping poles, and it eliminates the need to bend and strain to use a hand trowel when gardening. The invention features a multipurpose and lightweight design that is easy to use so it is ideal for campers, hikers, gardeners, and other outdoor enthusiasts.

The original design was submitted to the National sales office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers.
