    25 Things You'll Want To Bring On Your Next Camping Trip

    For anyone who thinks the great outdoors could be even better with just a few luxury items.

    1. An LED headlamp so you don't have to struggle with a flashlight AND the dishes AND your toiletry kit when you're re-packing your car after dark.

    2. An inflatable lounge chair that will make your midday nap feel like the height of luxury after sleeping on the ground for so long. You inflate it just by whipping it in the wind, meaning no pesky hand pumps or electricity needed!

    3. A set of glow-in-the-dark silicone wine glasses — they're easy to transport, will reduce spills, and are just dang fun.

    4. A solar power bank to give all of your devices the boost they need while you're off the grid.

    5. A cooler light so reaching for a can after the sun sets is never a shot in the dark. Sidebar: would watch a TV show about tricked-out coolers.

    6. An over-fire camp grill for anyone who wants to cook a meal with the coals without having to wrap everything in tin foil.

    7. A pack of cleansing wipes so you can freshen up a little bit between showers, much to the satisfaction of your campmates' noses.

    8. A pop-up trash can that will help you keep any and all waste contained. Always remember to take out everything you brought into the site — especially trash!

    9. A collapsible dog bowl with a carabiner so your pup is always nourished on the go. Gotta keep your #1 camping buddy ready for adventure!

    10. A lauded Yeti cooler, because you'll want your ice to last as long as possible to keep your perishables fresh. Ice doesn't grow on trees!

    11. A cot and air mattress if sleeping on the hard ground is a hard no from you. Sleeping under the stars is rad, but sleeping in a BED under the stars? Unbeatable.

    12. Some Jiffy Pop, because there is truly no greater pleasure in life that watching these bad boys puff up over a campfire. I would sing you my Papa's famous Jiffy Pop song, but alas, this is not the medium.

    13. A camping chair loveseat for snuggling up by the campfire with your boo. Not even arm rests can keep you two apart.

    14. A Lifestraw personal water filter that allows you to safely drink from any water source. This will come in handy if you're wayyyyy out there and need some reassurance that you won't run out of clean water.

    15. A pair of binoculars for getting a closer look at the local flora and fauna. Is that a cardinal?! Oh, nope, just a weird leaf.

    16. A collapsible, solar-powered lantern that's as easy to travel with as it is to change! Leave it out during your day's hike, and it'll be ready to pop up and use by the time night falls.

    17. A foldable flask so you can ~imbibe~ in the great outdoors. Your campsite is the hottest new bar this side of the Mississippi.

    18. A pull-string fire starter, because Boy Scouts is over — you're not gonna win any awards for starting a fire with two twigs and sheer will.

    19. An Aeropress coffee and espresso maker that brews top-notch coffee anywhere boiling water is available. It's also small, durable, and easy to clean, so bringing it to the ends of the earth with you is a no-brainer.

    20. A portable toilet if going number two in the wild is a camping dealbreaker. This thing folds up super small, comes with a substance that turns ~liquids~ into something less horrifying, and the entire apparatus folds into a backpack!

    21. A Rumpl indoor/outdoor blanket to keep you warm and cozy all through the night. Its smooth surface is waterproof and resistant to dirt, so there are no worries about exposing it to the elements.

    22. A seven-day meal kit — if you're doing some serious hike-in camping and don't feel like dehydrating everything in your fridge before you go, this box has got ya covered! Mmmm...freeze-dried spaghetti.

    14 meals in pouches

    23. Extendable skewers so no knuckle hair is harmed in the making of scrumptious s'mores and hot dogs.

    24. A lantern and fan hybrid that's as close as you're gonna get to sweet, sweet AC for a while. I cannot help but stan a mini ceiling fan gadget, it's just so cute and helpful.

    25. A Helinox ultra-light chair, because after a long day of putting on the miles, the last thing you'll want to do is perch on a rock.
