It's great to see you guys listing the bare necessities here, but it's all the extra little gadgets and things that clutter up your vehicle or campsite and never get used that is always a problem.


Man was placed in charge and given the duty of caring for all creation, are we doing it?

Places like Outdoor Warehouse & Makro make a killing on things that look great and people say "Oh look isn't this a good idea" buy it, load it and never find a use for it. It happens all the time.
