Fun and Unique Camping Gear for Your Next Outdoor Excursion

People of all ages and all walks of life have enjoyed camping. It is an activity which has been going on for a long time. Some adventurers like to spend time along in solitude, while some people enjoy camping with their families and their friends. When you think of camping, most people think of tents and sleeping bags. These days however, there is a wide variety of unique camping gear that is from from the traditional. In this article, I will provide a basic introduction to some of the latest gadgets available.

One of the latest and coolest gadgets is the luminous tent, as offered by the BradCamping Limited company. These yellow tents glow in the dark and serve two purposes. They let you find your tent more easily when it is dark and they also repel insects. Another popular tent is the featherlight tent - these are made by the likes of Advantage Innovations. These tents are very lightweight and therefore very portable. Now that you have learnt about some of the latest tents, let's talk about some fun accessories.

You'll need a few utensils for eating and drinking, and one of the most efficient is the plastic spork set offered from X-treme Geek. This spoon/fork/knife combination do it all in one simple gadget and come in colourful sets of four. Need a little flavour? Try the Swiss Spice waterproof salt and pepper shaker which is made for the outdoor, whether dry or wet. For hot coffee in a flash, the Aeropress Coffee and Espresso Maker fits the bill. Simply combine the coffee grounds with hot water and press for the perfect cup of fresh coffee in 30 seconds.

Another example of unique camping gear is the Swedish Firesteel flint and steel igniter, used with Maya Campfire Starter as tinder. You'll never need matches again! To find your way, check out the Highgear Handheld Digital Compass, which does a lot more than tells direction. You get a countdown timer, time, day, date backlit LCD display, alarm and water resistance up to 30 feet. Finally, consider the Survival Kit in a Sardine Can. This incredible little kit can be cooked in, drank from and contains acetaminophen (paracetamol), bandages, antibiotic ointment, whistle, compass, fire starter cube, matches, notepaper, pencil, duct tape and more. And, it's so tiny and light that it can go anywhere. There's no doubt about it -- today's innovative gear offers modern campers everything they'll need to make the most of the great outdoors!
