When it comes to buying gear for camping and other outdoor activities, I’ve made some decisions I’m quite happy with. But I’ve also bought some gear that I regret. Most of the camping gear that I regret buying was bought under the assumption that it would work well for both car camping and backpacking (orb other types of backcountry camping). Unfortunately, this isn’t typically the case. Hopefully you can learn something from my outdoor gear mistakes, if not maybe you can at least get a good laugh.
