What are some camp essentials to ensure a great experience?

Camp essentials are what we consider vital for your health and safety, whilst still having fun! Bringing it down to essentials, camp water filtration and water treatment are the most important, especially if you’re uncertain of clean water access at campsites. Even if there is fresh water in a stream, it doesn’t mean it’s clean, therefore it’s a camp essential to have manual or chemical water treatments from brands including Katadyn, MSR and Steripen. From there, a shelter is the next camp essential, with a tent including footprints and stakes important for protection from the elements. Having sufficient warmth, including thermal layers, insulation, sleeping bags and camp sleeping mats will ensure a restful evening. The final camp essential is food, as no one wants to be a hangry camper.
