We are actually fairly organized. all of our camp gear is always with in a few feet of each other so nothing gets left. we do have a list but thats for food so we know what we need and what my wife needs to buy. Everything fits into 2 27gallon superboxes that stack up nicely in the toyota. add a large ice chest and the top out with sleep bags, pillows, tent and chairs. leaves the back seat for Sierra and Rowdy with a few toys.
I am in the process of figuring out the Ford list but as it has less recovery options, I will probably need more recovery tools lol

Bourbon, tums, Advil, cigarettes, one burner Coleman propane stove (want to upgrade soon), small Coleman cooler filled with ice, Coleman powerchill cooler stuffed with food and diet soda, cheapo t-FAL frying pan, cheapo generic aluminum pot, Swiss army knife, folding chair x2, plastic reusable cups, disposable plastic plates (which I reuse), two forks, two spoons, one spatula, two steak knives, box of canned/boxed food, blankets and pillows and such (I just got a trailer, my previous sleeping arrangement was four mattress pads in the back of my lwb range rover), Toiletries, I am sure I am forgetting stuff and none of my gear is particularly expocool, but it works for me.
Most lists (to be fair I've seen a few here with this included) forget to mention leaving your itinerary with a friend or relative including recognisable features:
- your description
- clothing
- vehicle/tent/canoe color
- expected return date/time
- when to call for help
Last fall when I did my Ishpatina Ridge outing, my wife asked when she should advise authorities that I was missing... I replied it depended wether she wanted me found dead or alive !![]()
2003 Nissan Xterra, custom rear bumper w/tire carrier, TJM front bumper (modded & Line-Xed), Warn M8000, BFG AT's 33" x 10.5 r15, shrockworks sliders, 3" suspention lift (front shocks: Bilstein, rear: Skyjacker), chain saw, Cobra C75WX CB, ARB lockers front & rear, Gobi roof rack, Skidrow skid plates... And a 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon for lighter duties ...
classic!
I got the whole family to pass there HAM tech license, so we can make contact. My youngest final passes her test and it came in handy 2 weeks ago, as she could reach out to mom whenever she wanted too.
My camping list varies based on what I want to cook/eat. But I do bring enough tools to fix most any issue with my truck. Take 2 weeks ago, the rear caliper froze up and I had the Allen wrench needed to removed the caliper, plus a C-clamp to free up the piston so we could continue. I replaced the caliper once we got to an auto parts store.
stupid stuff like that can ruin an outing.

Been wanting to do this for a long time where I can print this out.
I have also cut way back on the items that I take.
One big item that will be more than likely stay home is the Cabelas picnic table.
I can use the new Slumberjack table I bought to hold the chuckbox to eat at.
This sounds like a lot, but a lot of packs into the ECS cases, and surprisingly the FJ Cruiser can hold a lot if you pack right.

Hey, I've created an android app to help organize gear like this. It's called "My Gear Pack", free in Google Play. I just released it last month but I'm adding features weekly. I'm a full time engineer and this was just a project so that I could get my own stuff organized better but I figured it could be useful to other. It's a little rough around the edges so please go easy on me.
Search for "My Gear Pack" in google play, it has a picture of a mountain because I am awful at photoshop and I don't have any money to pay an artist.
Let me know what you think, I'm a long time lurker and have a lot of respect for the experience of Expedition Portal's members.
I've put up my gear lists in the app (they are shared in the Gear Pack Library), but they are pretty meager because I just do some weekend trips in a jeep.
