I'm An Experienced Camper, These Products Make My Trips So Much Easier
Camping exploded in popularity over the last few years, with millions and millions of people grabbing a tent or camper and trying it for the first time.
In fact, 80 percent of leisure travelers in 2021 choose some form of camping or glamping for at least some of their trips, and the trend shows no signs of dropping. Shopping for tents on Amazon alone rose 33% by last year compared to pre-pandemic levels.
Outfitting yourself for a camping trip can be a confusing mission. Gear comes in so many makes, models, materials, sizes and features, and the last thing you want to do is buy something that’s going to fail you during an emergency.
