Some of the gear I am glad I bought-
Coleman Steel Belted Cooler-pricey but ice last 3 times longer in it and no cheap plastic hinges!
Coleman cordless pump-makes inflating and deflating air mattresses quick and easy
Coleman grill-no stick and easy clean up
Glow sticks-crack one of these at the door of the tent or lean to and you have a instant night light for those late night bathroom runs.
Coleman Northstar lantern-best lantern I've ever owned
Holster-after the bear run in last year, I'll be getting a new holster so that I have 'ol Betsy by my side when we're deep in the woods.
Mullet Wig-don't leave home without it! :-p
