scout gear

Troop expedition essentials

Scout gear is the equipment and supplies used by scouts—whether outdoor recreation scouts like Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, or military reconnaissance scouts.

The term covers clothing, camping equipment, navigation tools, and survival items: We packed all the scout gear into the trailer before the camping trip.

The phrase sometimes appears in video games referring to lightweight equipment for reconnaissance-focused characters.
