I'm going to California in a few weeks, and kinda want to try wild camping. I've car camped quite a lot, but want to spend the odd night in the middle of nowhere (fiancee's 30th, for example!). We're planning for a trip to Sequoia National Park at the end of May.
It'll likely be pretty cold and it's at altitude, so I want to gather a list of things that we'll need that I've not thought of, to determine if this is a stupid idea. We'd likely not spend 2 consecutive nights camping, would most likely be hike out, spend night, hike back to car for proper food and night 2.
What do I need, and what should I look for in a tent, stove etc?
Yeah you can rent canisters from the parks, just need to reserve them, which is cool. Unsurprisingly there's a fair bit of permit availability for late May too, feel like it's quite early in the season.
There's also all the fun stuff about packing out toilet roll to look forward to
