Buying gear..
US prices are often a lot cheaper for some items than here in Europe. As a retailer, I am well aware of the differences.. which to be honest I struggle to understand at times.
But, my opinion would be to ensure you have your sleeping bags and mats, sorted before you arrive.. nothing worse than plannign to buy the gear to find the sizes you need are not instock and sleeping bags and mats are rather essential if your to enjoy your trip.. tents are usually not a problem unless you set your mind on one particular brand and size. Keep in mind many US brands are not found in europe due to the shipping costs.
Cookers, pans, torches, etc are easily found so those you can defenitely get when you arrive.
