On this episode of The RV Atlas podcast, and here in this post, we recommend some amazing gear for outdoor adventure, the ultimate campfire kit, and for your camp kitchen! This is part two of our 2022 spring gear guide podcast! To check out part one, please click here

Outdoor Adventure

Nocs Provisions Standard Issue Waterproof Binoculars ($95.00)

First things first. The packaging for these Nocs Provisions 8X25 Standard Issue Waterproof Binoculars is super fun and gifty. If you have a junior ranger in your life, then these binoculars will make a much more exciting gift than any other pair of binoculars that we could recommend. The rubberized grip makes them extremely comfortable to hold and the selection of colors is delightful. Besides being really good looking, they also work just as well as another high-end pair that we own. We are keeping them in our RV this summer so they are always ready for adventure.

Campfire Kit

The Yeti LoadOut Bucket as Ultimate Campfire Kit ($40.00)

Yeti LoadOut Bucket Lid ($30.00)

Yeti LoadOut Bucket Gear Belt ($40.00)

The Yeti Bucket is one of the most maligned pieces of gear on the internet. Some folks just seem to get angry at Yeti for charging $40 bucks for a bucket. But we love this thing and don't really look at it as a bucket. We purchased the lid and gear belt to go with it, and have turned it into the ultimate campfire kit. Ours is filled with fire starters, lighters, newspaper, a Fireside Friend maul, and everything else we need to start an awesome campfire. Plus, the lid allows it to be used as an extra seat around the campfire. If you are looking for something cool to give dad for Father's Day this year--then load one of these up with some cool campfire stuff and call it a day. We promise you that he will love it. We recommend skipping the bucket caddy because then you can't fit fatwood or an axe into the bucket--essential items for this to become a serious campfire kit.

Barebones Railroad Lantern ($85.00) and Cases ($20.00-$30.00)

This Barebones Railroad Lantern is an excellent facsimile of the Union Pacific Railroad lanterns from many years ago. This rechargeable lantern has metal construction and is well built from top to bottom. We also like that Barebones offers a variety of colors so that you can match your lantern to your tent or RV setup. This is a 200 Lumen lantern, so it works well for mood lighting, not for task lighting, Check out a complete review of this item from Jeremy's Gear Garage on the RV Atlas YouTube channel by clicking above.

SOL Fire Lite Fuel Free Rechargeable USB Lighter ($23.74)

 

Are you sick of digging around in your camper for a lighter only to discover that it is out of fuel and ready for the trash? Then check out this USB rechargeable lighter from SOL. This is a nifty little gadget and it could be the last lighter you buy for a long, long time. The flame that it creates is small, and does not rise upward, so you may need to use it to light a rolled up piece of paper and go from there--a small price to pay to avoid using el cheapo lighters that may end up in a landfill,

JBL Flip 5 Bluetooth Splashproof Speaker ($94.18)

We gave up on getting good speakers in our RVs years ago. So we always bring a USB rechargeable bluetooth speaker with us. This JBL Flip 5 is the best portable speaker we have ever owned. The sound quality is terrific and so is the price. Just don't blast your music too loud at the campground okay? Your neighbors may not like Van Halen as much you do. JBL offers a huge range of colors. So getting one that fits your RV kit will be a cinch.

Camp Kitchen
