How about gifting your friend a personalized backpack with her/his initials on it? This would be a practical and meaningful gift that would remind her/him of you every time she/he goes backpacking. You could also consider getting her/him a portable water filtration system or a high-quality sleeping bag that will help during backpacking trips. Another great option would be to get her/him a guidebook to explore new hiking trails across different parts of the world.
Or you can get her/him a star map with the date when she/he was born.
