While the average camping equipment for those looking to venture into the outdoors remains largely the same, this geek camping equipment has an extra caveat that needs to be satisfied.
Some of the items simply come embossed with an image or trademark logo of geeky favorites -- such as a Starfleet Academy spork or a M48 tactical shovel -- but each represents a special geeky bond one cannot leave home without. Though camping and geek culture are not considered entirely synonymous and rarely coincide, some of these geek camping equipment are an awesome addition to have.
The R2D2 folding chair, for example, is simply better looking than any other camping chair available. The Tauntaun sleeping bag -- taken from the omnivorous reptomammls that live on the icy planet of Hoth from the Star Wars series -- would be an apt companion for those chilly nights.
