Affiliate Disclosure

Ethereal Shadow SN is built around things we actually do, places we actually go, and gear we actually use. When we recommend something, it is because it earned a place in our bag, our car, or our routine — not because someone paid us to say so.

Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. This means that if you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.

We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. We may also work with other affiliate programs from time to time, including but not limited to brands in the travel, outdoor, pet, and gear categories.

Affiliate commissions help us keep Ethereal Shadow SN running — covering the cost of trips, gear, and the time it takes to put these field guides together. We are genuinely grateful when you use our links.

A few things we want to be clear about:

Our editorial content is never influenced by affiliate relationships. If something did not work for us, we will say so or we simply will not include it. We do not link to products we have not used or would not recommend to a friend.

Not every link on this site is an affiliate link. Many recommendations are just recommendations.

If you ever have a question about a specific link or partnership, you can reach us at hello@etherealshadowsn.com
