A sleeping pad?
A cup to make some coffee in?
I dunno anon, I don«t do overnighters.

>Are canned foods worth bringing?
If you are a cheap bastard and not going to haul them on your back for long, they are decent.

>>a Zippo
>>lighter fluid for the Zippo
Just bring a bic. Unless you're motocamping Zippos aren't practical.
>>a metal water bottle
Why metal? Just bring plastic water bottles. They're lighter.
Groundsheet for the tent if it doesn't have one.
Pegs, cordage, chair, hat/beanie, mosquito head net, water proof jacket, first aid shit like antibiotics.
Are you cooking over the fire? Or are you going to get a cook system.
Do you have cook dishes? Fork and spoon?
Plus bring something to learn, practice, or hobby related. For example
>fishing shit
>drawing shit
>hack sack
>drawing stuff
So you don't get bored.
As the other anon said a sleeping pad.
You can check out the loadout thread to see if anything there reminds you of stuff.

Finally, most importantly, booze.

Redundant knives. what do you need to cut and bring the most appropriate, but 2 is sorta pointless for overnight.

>a Zippo
>lighter fluid for the Zippo
>matches
bringing the fluid for the zippo is a little pointless as well. Do you think you'll need more than what the zippo carries? You already have matches as back up

>a metal water bottle
water filteration

>a really old surp e-tool
but why?

>a change of clothes
for an overnight probably just need sleep clothes

>a tent
>a sleeping bag
sleeping pad?

rain gear, cooking vessel / plan for food, toilet kit come to mind

It's a very leaky Zippo. I keep using it because it has sentimental value.

Put electrical tape around the insert to create a better seal.

Huh. Never thought of that. Do you think it'd hold fuel even longer if I did the innertube thing?

Innertube was too thick for me, but if yours is super loose maybe that'd work.
The only downside to the tape is you have to clean up the tape gunk if you leave it in there for awhile.
Zippos are good for motocamping because they can run on gas. You can just dunk the insert into the fuel tank.
Mines the green one beside the deoderant.

No, not on the inside. I meant that trick where you use inner tube to basically foreskin the lighter. If it goes up over the seam where the lid connects, it'll seal.

Oh, yeah that would probably make it last longer. Plus you'd get a nice fireball from the first spark.

Are you doing overnight hiking or car camping?
Why the E-Tool?
Why not retire that leaky zippo as a desk decoration and use a bic?
Are you bringing a large water cooler or something? Otherwise bring more than 1 bottle.

Bring:
Cooking pot
Utensil set
Hygiene
Gun
Bear spray
Frisbee or some other toy
Cooler full of beer
Kilogram of weed
