For typical car camping, this is my list: - Standard day hiking gear - Tent - Sleeping bags, pads, camp pillows - Washcloth, camp towel - Chairs - Lantern - Cooler - Utensils, plates, cutting board, foil, wash bucket - Two-burner camp stove and fuel, small skillet and pot - Hatchet We usually grab firewood at the site, and get food/ice/beer en route at a supermarket. We pack relatively light because everyone who drives has a tiny little compact, so we need to fit a couple days of gear and food for 4-5 people in that. We rarely camp at sites with showers. Food can really be almost anything that cooks fast, the two-burner stove is a workhorse, but it's smart to get stuff you can cook on a stick or over a fire. Sweet corn is awesome since you can just throw it right on a grate over the fire pit (unshucked, obviously) and let it go.

There's something a lot of fun about being out in the middle of nowhere by yourself/with friends. I'm the other way around. I love to beer it up in a chair over a campfire, and none of those things are happening while backpacking. When I'm backpacking, I'm trading off the experience of chilling out at camp for being able to do a longer and more remote hike, so it has its place, but I do it far less often.
