Tent | Big Agnes Copper Spur | Hell yes to this tent. | |
Sleep Pad | Thermarest Neo Air | This is stupid-expensive - but I swear - the pad is the most important piece of gear… | |
Camp Chair | Helinox | I had an REI Flexlite, but this is the same thing. I sent this home, but a nice luxury item. | |
Cheap Camp Chair | Knock Off Chair | A cheaper knock off that's probably just as good. | |
Quilt/Sleeping Bag
(TAT) | Enlightened Equipment Revelation 30 Degree | High quality quilt. I'm into the quilt thing and I love this company. Expensive! | |
Sleeping Bag
(OLD) | Aegimax Bag | I used this for backpacking and the SM 500. It's a decen bag, but not for less than 50 degrees. | |
Quilt/Sleeping Bag
I might get next | Enlightened Equipment Convert 0 Degree | I'm thinking about doing the NEBDR in September/October and I think I need a lower degree quilt. Maybe. | |
Bag Liner | Vumos | These are great to have. If it's super hot, these alone work great. | |
Water | MSR Dromedary Bag | Great and holds a lot of H20 | |
Water | Drinking Tube for MSR Bag | | |
Pocket Blanket | Matador Pocket Blanket | One of my favorite pieces of kit. | |
Camp Towel | Sea to Summit AirLite Towel | Love. Tiny and works well. You'll be the talk of the camp shower... | |
Tent Lamp | Black Diamond Lantern | Love. Great to hang in the tent. | https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PRQ0O94/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 |
Headlamp | CREE LED | I used the tent lamp much more than this. But - handy to have for sure... | |
Poo Shovel | UST Dig | Leave no trace people | |
Ditty Bags | Ditty Bags | Kept things organized. | |
Buff | Merino Wool Buff | Love. Great for wiping gauges, sweat, water, whatever. Use as a headband or make it into a hat. | |
Cook Stove | Fancy Feast Cook Stove | You can make these yourself out of a cat food can. But - be lazy like me. I like this because it's quiet (unlike a jetboil). And it boils quickly. | |
Fuel Bottle | Plastic Dispensor | For stove fuel | |
Stove Fuel | HEET (yellow) | I like it because you can find it anywhere... | |
Survival Knife | Smith & Wesson | I got this to process wood for campfires I never had... Someday! | |
Camp Spoon | GSI Long | You need one of these to dig into those freeze dried bags of goop. | |
Camp Spoon 2 | Collapsible Spoon | I love the GSI spoon. But it's length is kind of a pain in the ass to pack neatly. I'm trying this one. We'll see... | |
Cook Pot | Toaks | Light and great. | |
Wind Screen | Toaks | To put around the stove if there's wind. | |
Collapsible Cup | Sea to Summit X Series | Handy | |
Coffee Press | Aeropress | If a flood came, this is what I would save. We use this every day at home - not just for camping. | |
Bear Bag | Rock Sok | A clever bit of kit | |
**Fig Bars | Natures Best! | The world's most perfect food. | |
Vegan Camp Meals | Leafside (Disgusting) | The world's most imperfect food. | |
Camp Shoes
(TAT) | Vertico Sliders | These were fine, but just a bit big to pack (and squeaky!) | |
Camp Shoes
(Current) | Vifuur Water Shoes | These pack to nothing, but I’ll feel stupid wearing them in a Mexican restaurant lounge. | |
Current Med Kit | Adventure Med Kit | In addition to this, get some tweezers or a tick key. | |
Tick Removal | Tick Patrol | I hate ticks. | |
Insect Repellent | Saywer Picaridin | Good stuff. | |
Insect Treatment | Sayer Permethrin | Spray all your stuff down before you go. | |
Camp Saw | Silky Gomboy Pro | Amazon won't let me link to this - just google it. | |
Water Treatment | Saywer filtration | I didn't bring this on the TAT. But if you're getting super remote - this is a good kit. | |
Merino Wool Socks | Time May Tell Socks | Great. | |
Soap | Dr. Bronner's | Careful of the bottle being secure. My toothbrush was super minty in a bad way one morning. | |
Laptop Protector | Urban Armor | | |
Mesh Laundry Bag | Mesh Laundry Bag | Good for drying clothes on the bike... | |
Underwear | ExOfficio Boxers | Synthetic for wicking and quick drying. | |
Backpack | Backpack | | |
Paracord | Paracord | | |
Puffy Jacket | | | |
