5. First Aid Kit
Arguably the first thing that should go into your backpack, your first-aid kit, should have antiseptic wipes, painkillers, band-aids, and creams to safely face the typical challenges that the wilderness will throw at you.
You may not plan on getting insect stings, blisters, or sunburn, but with a first-aid kit in your backpack, at least you’ll be prepared.
That’s the thing about camping; it’s a great way to escape the city and modern life, but it also puts you out of your comfort zone. Situations like walking over tough terrain, being out in the elements, and running into potentially dangerous wildlife can all be risky. The good news is that you can deal with any incident by having a first aid kit with all the must-haves for your camping trip.
