In order to make the campsite easier to setup, I break it down into two categories, with a plastic tote box for each one. Using sealable totes offers some measure of protection against both rain, and perhaps more importantly- squirrels. Everything stays in the totes until needed. No need to unpack it right away. This way there is no worry in the event of a sudden rainfall about having to hurry up and get everything under cover.

Obviously there are some things that won’t fit in the totes. Like lanterns, the camp stove. and sleeping bags. I also bring about 8-10 tiki torches. This serves as my insect repellent and provides great illumination at night. My hammock doesn’t fit in the totes either. And yes, a hammock is an essential camping item. Clothes and towels simply go in duffel bags.
