AY YOOO! LETS GOOOOO! (I also have a SteamDeck and I got excited reading that lmao)
Battery packs my friend. Have at least one extra battery capable of at least 45W charging, preferrably those 25000 mah ones. (I'd get like 2 batteries if money isn't an issue, I found ones thay are like $70 USD) There are also car chargers adapters that cinverts the cigarette lighter thing to a USB-C output (although I never went on a long enough trip to use those, so idk if those are enough to charge a SteamDeck at full 45 Watts)
Download some maps.
And, I know people will say "enjoy the moment" or whatever, but I suggest taking some photos with whatever phone you have (if you don't want a dedicated camera), because I'd personally really wished I had a photo of every place I've been to, since I kinda forgot them, the memories I do have feels so nostalgic, and I wish I had more photos to help me recall stuff. (for context: I'm a young adult, but dealing with depression and memories aren't as vivid anymore, photos would help a lot for me)
Idk about your oculus, but is this a place with no cellular signal? I bet those handheld radios would come in handy for communications (Its not like I travel to remote areas often, but like I'm just obsessed with radios so I had to mention it xD), could make your little trip feel like a you're a special agent on a secret mission lol (am I weird? Sorry I just have an obsession with the idea radios, like I mentioned). But seriously tho, lack of cell signal and being in remote areas feel kinda sketchy (IMO) without a reliable way to communicate. If in the US: FRS is license-free, but has lower range due to wattage requiements. GMRS requires bascially just one license fee that covers your entire family, but you can use those higher wattage GMRS Radios. (GMRS and FRS kinda overlap on the same frequencies btw)
