Summer is great for all things outdoors – especially camping. Even beginner campers know the gear basics to pack, but what about some fun, extra gadgets? We have compiled our eight favorites, in no particular order below.<\/p>\n

1. Light-Up Grill Spatula<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you’d rather skip the hunt for a solid roasting stick, or don’t have the double-prong attachment we mentioned above, you can use this nifty fishing-inspired rod! This tool is also perfect for keeping a safe distance from the fire, which is great for kids that want to participate.<\/p>\n

8. Campsite-Friendly Campfire Wood Bricks<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Woodpellets.com\"<\/p>\n

Most campsites do not allow firewood to be brought from outside sources because firewood can transport insects that can hurt trees and spread disease. Wood bricks are made as a firewood alternative for wood stoves, but are great for campfires too. \u00a0They’re bundled in shrink-wrapped packages of 15 to 20 bricks, and are safe to bring into campsites.<\/p>\n
