Five Things You'll Need For A Romantic Camping Date

Since Valentine's Day falls on a Monday, many of you may have chosen to postpone your celebration on the weekend so that you can relax and have more time. But you know its gotta be special, so you'll need certain equipment to make the vibe extra romantic. And you don't want to be lugging so much on your trip, what you want are stuff that's light and just enough for two. 

If you still haven't thought about the things that you'll need to bring, we've come up with a list of what we think are five basic gear that just must get.
