Another small but still cool addition to the gear list is the FSR Go Light. They gave me this light to try out on my Thanksgiving trip to Death Valley. At first I was skeptical of this thing. It was big, bulky, and took up a lot of space in the truck. It is also a pain in the rear to setup the tripod thing for this. It ended up being the most useful piece of kit on the trip. Super bright, has detachable lights with hooks and magnets on each small breakaway light. They can stick to the trail gate, hang in the tent, kids can play with them. All around a great piece of hardware. It is charged by built in solar panel or from a car charger. I ended up using it a lot for packing and working on the truck late at night while getting ready for the trip

The light was really really useful for the kids. We could light up the entire camp area and the kids were able to move around after dark. This save many many tears.
Another small but huge improvement to camp life was the skottle. I know it is all the rage and super trendy item to have but there is a reason why. Our camp dinners were already really good but this took it to a new level. Best part is that there is significantly less clean up after cooking and far less pots and pans used. We cooked every meal for 4 adults and 2 kids over 4 days with the skottle only.
It is a little bulky but it has taken the spot where our water used to be.
