Default Seat furniture

Do you bring a seat furniture with you when you camp on the trail park or hills? I have a folding stadium seat with arms that is already old and can't be used anymore. I was wondering what kind of seat furniture should I buy that is of more durable, stronger quality and can last for years?

Nope, I don't bring seats while trailing or camping. I use what nature can provide as my seat. I leave all the comforts at home because I wanted to be with nature. I will enjoy all the comfort I need when I go back home.

I don't bring chairs if hiking. But camping we bring those folding chairs that come out of a storage bag. Not sure how to explain. Oh here you go Amazon.com: Folding Camp Chair - Navy: Sports & Outdoors

I found these chairs through Overland Journal magazine. Campaign Furniture Company, very classy looking and made in the US.
The Journal is cool too!!

We have those collapsible canvas chairs that have their own tote that you can sling over your shoulder. They don't take up alot of room and are lightweight. Nothing fancy but does the job nicely.

I don't usually bring any furniture with me as we always make do with what nature provides, but you could probably find foldable camping chairs that were made to resist outside conditions.

It just depends upon whether we are hiking or not. If we aren't camping by the car then we don't bring any chairs. If we are camping in a camping area we usually bring camp chairs, collapsible tables and a lot of other things we don't normally bring when we are hiking.

lol, their name is a little weird. Especially on NOV 3rd
I have a couple of these chairs they are not meant to be totted around because they are like 15 lbs each. They have lasted a while though.

This is what I use as well. I have one by Roots that is really comfortable. For backpacking I have a small 3 legged folding canvas stool that attaches to the outside of my pack and weighs almost nothing. Very handy to have - especially in wet weather when sitting on a log might give you the 'roids
