You can wheel in places like Moab or the Hammers without ever having to sleep in a tent or make food on a propane stove. For many people though, the camping aspect of off-roading is as appealing as the obstacles. Trails like the Rubicon are best enjoyed over multiple days, and that means bringing along enough gear to be self-sufficient and comfortable while still fitting everything within the confines of your vehicle. While not meant to be an entirely comprehensive list, this is what we carry with us after years of running trails like the Rubicon on a regular basis. • 00:00 - Intro • 01:04 - Front Runner Outfitters Wolf Pack • 01:34 - Cooking Gear • 02:52 - Storage Options • 03:17 - Freezer/Fridge or Ice Chest • 03:51 - Bring Water • 04:06 - WaterPORT GoSpout • 04:45 - Recovery Gear • 05:25 - Clothing • 05:54 - Swim Gear • 06:08 - Tent and Sleeping Bag • 07:38 - Bestop Saddle Bag • 08:28 - Trasharoo • 08:40 - Helinox Chairs • 09:28 - Dog Bed • 09:45 - Outro • Camping Gear- Backpacking gear like tents and sleeping bag takes up minimal space and is lightweight, but at the expense of comfort. If you are short on space or are only going overnight this is a good option. Inexpensive gear like collapsible chairs and sleeping pads tend to be less durable, but that might be a tradeoff you are willing to make if you only use the equipment a few times a year. • Clothing- We generally like to dress in layers on the trail since it can be quite hot during the day but temperatures drop as soon as the sun goes down. A wide brimmed hat and long sleeves help keep the sunburn to a minimum and synthetic fibers generally do a better job of wicking away moisture and insulating that cotton does. We generally wear hiking boots, but if you are going someplace with water remember to bring your sandals, towel, and swimsuit. • Food- We could do an entire video on how to eat on the trail. Some people like to go gourmet with complete camp kitchens, while others are content with a box of cold pizza to get them through the week. We typically find it easiest to do as much prep at home ahead of time so we have more time to relax on the trail. Paper plates can be added to the campfire once you are done with them to minimize cleanup, and there are even disposable utensils now made from avocado seeds. Remember to bring a trash bag though for items that can’t go in the campfire and need to come home with you. • Tools- We recommend keeping track of what tools you use in the garage when working on your vehicle and bring those same tools with you on the trail. There is no point in carrying a 5/16-inch socket and wrench if you don’t have any 5/16-inch hardware on your vehicle. Specialty items like hub sockets are particularly useful, as are multimeters to troubleshoot electrical issues if they occur. • Spare Parts- If you have a known issue with your vehicle like breaking axle shafts or bending leaf springs, we recommend addressing that before you hit the trail. We do regular maintenance on our vehicles (see more at • DIY Maintenance Overlanding and Off-R... ) and carry minimal parts on the trail since they can be heavy and bulky, and you never know what parts you might need. A fullsize spare tire is always a good idea though, as are small items such as sensors that can leave you dead in the water if they fail on the trail. • • Drop a comment and let us know what you want to see next from Harry and Mike! • Subscribe: / drivingline • Follow us on Facebook: / drivingline • Follow us on Instagram: / drivingline • More Articles: https://www.drivingline.com/ • Want to know the different features of the Nitto tires we used? • https://www.nittotire.com/light-truck... • More backcountry content from All-Terrain Family: • / @allterrainfamily • Follow Harry on Instagram: / harrysituations • Follow Mike on Instagram: / allterrainfamily • • Keywords: Driving Line; Harry Situations; All-Terrain Family; Nitto Tire; Nitto Trail Grappler; Rubicon; Camping; Overlanding; Expedition; What To Pack; Action Packer; Spares; Tools; Tent; Sleeping Bag
