9 Must Have Items To Carry While Hiking Or Camping

Most hikers probably think about packing up the camping gear or hiking gear when they think about spending a few nights under the stars orugaing a remote back country. But aside from the fact that these are obviously much cheaper than hotel accommodations, you also learn to share a decent amount of gear between each other in a way that we wouldn’t normally be able to do in our everyday lives. Everyone has their own travel packing list of things they would rather not have to deal with.

But on the other hand, just because you have to conserve space and weight doesn’t mean you have to leave everything behind. There are certain items that are standard in every camping repertoire that will simply not fit into a backpack. Here are 9 must-have items for every camper to avoid leave behind.

Your sleeping bag will be the only thing that is left behind. Unless you’re lucky enough to be sleeping under the stars, you’ll still need a good sleeping bag that can keep you warm and Look for that type that is as light as can be. If you’re not used to sleeping cold, then you’ll be surprised at how quickly you become accustomed to it.

Your rain gear needs may change depending on where you are. If you’re heading to a desert, you’ll need your rain gear to be able to deal with accessorized weather. If you’re heading to a warmtrain ride, you may need a lightweight poncho or rain suit. And among friends, a lightweight sleeping bag and pillow case may be the most important item to bring.

Your shoes, which may already be on your back pack, but need new socks. Or if you’re thinking about cross country skiing, you’ll want to bring your trekking shoes, gaiters, and hiking boots along.

There are a number of different types of tents available, in all different shapes and sizes. Sleeping bags come in all different colors, with fancy models looking like Christmas bags. Some sleeping bags are worth looking into and its worth taking a look at reviews of the different types. You will also need to bring along a tarp or two to cover things that you don’t want to get wet, like food and drinks.

You will definitely need a first aid kit, something to small to make a camping trip enjoyable. You can put together your own first aid kit or buy one from your local outdoorsman for about the cost of a bottle of sunscreen.

Don’t forget to bring a good rod and tackle box along, Maybe a couple of those 2000′ carbon fiber rods to do some serious rod fishing in.

Being able to do some serious rod fishing at the campsite is another good reason to bring along the sail boat and tackle box. Many rod manufacturers use this specific carbon fiber and inflatable rod in their high-end, high-profit carbon fiber rods. High-end rods are designed to provide a long, lasting, and super-lightweight feel.

The Tackle Box:

A tackle box can be used for any number of things. These little boxes can hold a multitude of items. They hold items like spoons, cutters, knives, forks, and more. The knife and fork box can also be used to store your iodine tablets or other sundry items that you want to access frequently.

Inflatable Boat:

Inflatable boats are a great way to enjoy a piece of water in your camping trip. They are super compact, and once you have a good nice boat you never want to go out on a boat again.

They are easy to maintain, and if you like them a lot of people will want to invest in a boat. But you will have to get a good quality one.

Wine Escape:

Saying that a boat can make it to the top of a mountain is like saying an SUV can make it to the top of a mountain. Or perhaps a person can make it to the top of the mountain.

Hydraulic Chair:

While in the boating chair situation the boat becomes a hydraulic lift that versifies a person’s weight to float above water and propels them to the top of the mountain. These chairs boated in backcountry lakes and reservoirs work great for the early riser. They are also helpful for people visiting areas that have unpredictable water currents and wave faces.

Belly Bag:

A belly bag is a waterproof liner that is big enough to hold a sleeping bag. The original design was created by cyclist Pete Lehman in the early 1900’s. Pete Lehman did not have access to a boat when he traveled. So he created a chair out of wood using a steam engine.

You can find a lot of Pete Lehman gear online. Go Daddy and look. If you like Whitewater rafting as well as canoeing, he has some gear there as well.
