Helinox Chair One

Helinox

Burning Man camp gear

A compact chair you can sit in all afternoon.

Why it's on the list

The ground is not a seat after the first day. A real camp chair, light enough to move and strong enough to trust, is the furniture people use every afternoon. This one packs small, holds about 320 pounds, and has a warranty that means the maker expects it to come home. Dust packs the joints. Shake it out.

How we use it

Set it on the rug, in the shade, not in the open where a gust takes an empty chair. A side pocket is for a bottle, not a place to lose your goggles. Wipe the poles before they go in the bag.

Heads up

An empty chair in the wind is a kite. Weight it or fold it when you leave camp.
