Basecamp Magnetic Chess & Checkers

The GSI Outdoors Basecamp Magnetic Chess & Checkers is a travel-ready game set built for downtime in the backcountry, at the airport, or on a road trip. It gives you a larger folding board that is easier to play on than most compact travel sets, while still packing down small enough to bring along.

In use, the magnetic board and pieces do exactly what you want when conditions are less than ideal: they stay put while you’re on the move. The pieces also store inside the board, which keeps the whole set organized between games. For camp, travel days, or waiting out a delay, it’s a straightforward, well-contained way to bring along chess and checkers for two players.
