Soooo, Did you order a size 150 sock for all your camping gadgets?
Depending on the length of some of your "things," a large sail bag might do.
You might also consider an outdoor shop that sells skis. I have a ski bag
that holds and protects my skis and boots when I head out to Lake Louise for
a week or two of fantastic downhill powder ...
