Truck Camping Photo Thread

Well look who got a flippac.
Where did you head out to and how do you like it?

 

Should be on the cover of the latest Adventure Magazine. Awesome photography and camp site selection.

 

I think I finally put together a good list of camp kitchen/cooking items.

Can some one take a look and make suggestions on changes or missed items?

 

Good list.
Get a spice missile thing from gsi to hold a few more flavors than just salt and pepper. Paper plates and bowls make clean up easy. Really easy if you have a fire.

 

Use everything on the list to cook and eat a meal at home and you might find whats missing for you.
I keep a folding windscreen for the camp stove. I bring more than a few stoves, too.

 

This trip was all black and white

Great tip. I'll have to try that.

I always have atleast 1 back up. I carry my Jetboil in my fishing tub and usually pack a single burner Coleman stove just because

 

Friends don't let friends use Jetboil.

 

Why is that?

 

Same reason friends don't friends drive Fords

 

Is someone going to make decals of a little brat peeing on a Jetboil now?

 

Do jetboils breakdown often? Mines always worked over the last decade so I can't complain.

 

For some people, the first thing to go is the little igniter switch. Over time it can stop producing a spark or ignite very infrequently.

I personally love my jetboil. I've taken it on a number of backpacking trips and really appreciate how nicely it performs. That little thing really gets the job done quickly and makes things easier.

 

You forgot the Blue!!

 

Bic for me.

 

A can opener is key to have in your camp kit. Ask me how I know...

I always go through my meal list and mentally "prepare" every dish to make sure that I have everything in need.

 

Wow, your truck sure looks better now. Are those tires from a Prius?

 

I use mine all the time. I have the Zip so it doesn't have an ignition on it. Nothing beats a hot cup of coffee in 2 minutes after a long day of fishing in the snow.

 

How's the jetboil in a 30 mph wind?
I prefer the MSR Reactor or Windburner myself over the Jetboil. I gave the one Jetboil I had away. He said he's happy with it, I wasn't.
I know, they sell a lot of them. They display them on the shelf to sell. And they do sell. I see alot of them returned at REI garage sales, too.
You rarely see an MSR stove there.

Actually I prefer my very old 1st version 1950's Sievert Svea 123 over all of them. Or my Borde (Bomb). Or my...
Did I say I have a lot of stoves?
I don't have a Jetboil.
