Here are some items I recommend you bring on any camping trip in addition to the obvious tent, sleeping pad, pillow and sleeping bag.

I have worked in IT for the last 6 years. In my free time I like road trips, hiking, camping, going to the gym, stock investing, and working on my websites when I get time.
