Summer is the perfect time to head to the great outdoors and have a fun camping trip. But what should you bring with you? We’ve put together our list of Must Have camping trip items that will get you ready for a fun and relaxing trip outdoors.
Pop-Up Green Trash Can
Not every campsite will have a trash can at your disposal. This pop-up green trash can is a definitely Must Have. The trash can is made from polyester it includes 3 grommets on the bottom to be able to secure it into the ground in addition to 4 alligator clips on the inside to keep your garbage secure.
Black Camp Grill
This is about to take camping for you to a whole new level. This camp grill goes right over top of your fire and allows you to cook over the open flame with ease.
Camp Shower
The great outdoors are wonderful… but not always the cleanliest. Some campgrounds don’t have a shower for you to use, and if you’re a traditionalist camping in the wilderness then you definitely will be missing a shower. This camp shower is solar heated, meaning you leave it out in the sun and it will warm the water up for your perfectly. It also holds enough water for 3 to 4 showers and a hook for hanging so you can take a shower like normal.
Emergency Survival Fire Starter Putty
How cool is this! I’m not very good at starting a fire, so this is a definite Must Have for me. This awesome fire starter party is waterproof and weather resistant, designed to ensure you can start a fire even in the harshest of conditions. It helps you create a fire that can burn for up to 15 minutes with even just a quarter-sized dab of putty. This is a great find for every outdoorsman, adventurer, camper, etc.
LED Flashlights Gloves
While it goes without saying, it’s worth the mention that it’s going to get dark when you’re camping. Especially if you’re deep in the woods, you’re going to want light. Which makes these LED Flashlight gloves such a cool find! You will literally have light at your fingertips, helping you guide your way or dig through whatever your need in the dark.
Portable Fire Pit
Take your fire pit game to the next level with this portable fire pit. We like the idea of elevating a fire pit. The mesh is stainless steel and according to reviews cools quickly.
Camping Lantern and Phone Charger
If you’re not feeling the gloves, might we suggest this lantern? Not only will it bring light to the darkness, but it can also charge your phone, which lets be realistic you’re going to bring with you anyway. This lantern is also solar powered, so during the day when the sun is bright and shining you can charge your lantern and then at night use it.
100 Piece First Aid Kit
You need a first aid kit. Nuff said. If anything happens to you, you’ll want to make sure that you can treat yourself with proper first aid.
Waterproof Dry Bags
If you don’t know about these you’re going to need to. Waterproof dry bags are incredible. I use two whenever I go kayaking, but they also work great for camping. The weather can be finicky, and depending on where you go you might get wet. These waterproof dry bags help keep your valuables safe and dry.
Ultrasonic Pest Repellers
Keep the rodents and insects away from your camp with these electronic pest repellers. These nifty devices send out wave frequencies that will hit the nervous system of pests and make them uncomfortable and wary of the area. These are great for keeping rodents out like mice and rats, but even on bugs like spiders, mosquitoes, and ants.
