Luxury Camping Gear Items

There has recently been a switch in the type of camping some people enjoy. There is now luxury camping gear available to the outdoors crowd. Many of these seem like a little over the top but people are buying them and the market continues to grow. Luxury camping gear items are expanding rapidly.

One of these items is the Martin Backpacker acoustic guitar. For people who know nothing about guitars, Martin is the oldest guitar manufacturer in the country. Many are hand made. The Martin Backpacker is only thirty- five inches long and costs around two hundred seventy dollars. This is a must have item for the camping musician. A person can get more information by logging onto martinguitar.com.

Another luxury camping gear item is the Sierra Designs Nomad 4. This isn’t the normal backpacking tent that many people use. It has fifty six square feet of floor space and a peak height of sixty six inches. In no way will people feel claustrophobic in this tent. It is easily packed because it fits into a small bag and only weighs fourteen pounds. It is more like a motel room than a tent and sells for about three hundred fifty dollars. Their website is sierra designs.com.

More Luxury Camping Gear

For those campers who feel luxury camping gear includes staying clean while camping and will only shower when the water is the right temperature, the Zodi Hot Camp Shower is made for them. It weighs about eight pounds and uses a small camp propane bottle to heat the water. It’s sort of like a water heater. It has a three hour limit for hot water. They cost around one hundred forty dollars and people can go to Zodi.com to get more information.

Another luxury camping gear item to take along while roughing it in the wild is the GSI Lexan Javapress. Most people that camp make cowboy coffee that has the grounds floating around in the pot. But now, people can enjoy coffee with the java press. There are several models that make between a half liter and one and a half liters of gourmet coffee. It is only eleven ounces and costs around twenty dollars. GSI also makes back country champagne flutes and cocktail shakers. More information can be had by logging onto gsioutdoors.com.

Finally, for the outdoors type of person who must always have a nice chair to sit in, the Mountain Hardware Backcountry 72 chair can be packed to wherever one is going. At three pounds, it is not heavy and it folds up for putting it onto a backpack. The cost for this luxury camping gear item is about seventy dollars. People can go to the website for more information at mountainhardware.com
