Memorial Day Weekend is the unofficial start of summer, and for many, the three-day weekend also hails the beginning of camping season. There’s a good chance that you’re dusting off the gear bins for the first time since last fall to find that some items aren’t as pristine as you thought you’d left them, and that those gaps in your camping kit remain unfilled. Now is the time to make amends. It’s too late to upgrade your camping setup for the holiday weekend, but it’s the perfect time to take advantage of sales for as much as 50 percent off at retailers like REI, Backcountry and Huckberry to ensure that you’re well prepared for summer. Here are six things to get you started.

REI Co-op Trail Chair

The classic lightweight folding camp chair is perfect for campfire lounging (and makes a nice perch in a canoe, too).

Snow Peak Titanium Cafe Press

Don’t let the quality of your morning coffee suffer because you’re miles away from the nearest espresso machine.

Gerber ComplEAT

Gerber’s new camp kitchen multi-tool is one of our favorite camping accessories of the year. It’s a spoon, fork, knife, can opener, peeler, spatula and tongs all in one. You’ll need to be an REI member and use the code ANNV19 to unlock the discount on this one.

Therm-a-Rest Hyperion 32-Degree Sleeping Bag

Therm-a-Rest’s new Hyperion sleeping bags pack down smaller than you’ll believe, and this one provides the perfect level of warmth for summer camping.

BioLite FirePit

No firepit at the campsite? Bring one with you. Not only does BioLite’s FirePit provide that familiar warm glow (without leaving a charred mess on the ground), but also it functions as a high-powered grill so that you can leave the camp stove at home.

Big Agnes Manzanares HV SL3 mtnGLO Tent

The lighting comes built-in with the Big Agnes Manzanares mtnGLO tent. LED lights fill up the entire space with light for games of UNO and reading. The tech-equipped tent is plenty spacious but remains lightweight and packable too.
