The Ultimate Weekend Camping Checklist

A weekend in nature is the perfect reset—but forgetting gear can ruin the fun. That’s why Camping Crusaders created this quick checklist to keep your trip stress-free.

Start with shelter: tent, stakes, groundsheet. Add warmth with a weather-appropriate sleeping bag and insulated pad. For meals, pack a compact stove, utensils, cookware, and non-perishable food.

Don't forget a headlamp, first-aid kit, extra layers, and waterproof matches. A good checklist is a camper’s best friend—and helps you focus on what matters: the adventure.
