Unfortunately for newbies, Mother Nature is known to be a fickle temptress, with bright sunny skies one day and scattered thunderstorms the next. We've rounded up the essentials any novice camper would need to hike it out in style: quality layers to peel off or put on at your whim, hats to keep the sun out of your eyes, and, of course, a handy water bottle to keep you hydrated.
