As you can see from the color code, a good chuck box (holds the stuff in blue) is a major step toward becoming a skilled camper. Since it holds the majority of your camping checklist, it makes it easy to have the bulk of what you need packed and ready when you are. Additionally, a 'catch-all' (holds the stuff in green) can be a plastic tote or crate. It is good for storing big bulky items like cast iron and odd size stuff. The products at www.blueskykitchen.com can really help you solve your camp kitchen challenges. This list courtesy of www.camping-tips.com. Come back again, there is a lot of good info here.
