You won’t need everything on this list for every camping trip. Some items depend on where you’re going, what you’re doing, how rustic you want your trip to be, the time of year, and how long you plant to stay. Items with an asterisk are most commonly needed and you should have them for ANY trip into the woods.

Print the list and use the first circle to mark items you packed for your trip. Use the second circle to make sure you have everything when you’re packing at the end of your trip.
