JUST ADD WATER
(AND COFFEE
GROUNDS)
Most “portable”
coffeemakers
aren’t really all that
convenient; you
might as well drag
the Chemex along
with you. The Oomph,
though, is an all-
in-one (it’s even its
own mug) that
totally delivers. It
uses an internal
plunger and filter—
something like a
French press—and
makes consistently
great coffee with
minimal fuss.

FOR LATE
CAMPFIRE NIGHTS
After a long day
of climbing, rafting,
hunting, or trail-
running, it’s mighty
nice to sink into this
Snow Peak Také
Bamboo Chair (made
from washable canvas)
for a few hours. Keep
the cooler nearby.

LET THERE
BE LIGHT (FROM
YOUR PHONE)
The BioLite
CampStove 2 isn’t
just a wood-burning
stove—it’s a portable
generator. Plop in
some dry sticks and
a fire-starter pellet,
then stand back as an
onboard fan stokes
the flame, converting
the heat into energy
that can charge your
phone. Practice
saying Oh, it works
by harnessing
thermoelectric
energy before your
trip. bioliteenergy
