Heh, I noted that the last time we'd been to King's Canyon we had film cameras and used paper maps. Mapquest either didn't exist or just wasn't as ubiquitous as it became (to be superceded by Google). So I suppose a digital SLR and a gps nav were luxury items.
And the air mattress. Our tent would have been, having previously had tiny 2-person tents that you could barely crouch in, let alone stand. But the whole rain fly thing kinda made that suck.
