Article writer-Bertram Monahan How To Stay Warm While CampingMake sure you know what's covered in your medical insurance. You may need to purchase additional coverage if you will be camping in another state. If you are camping outside of your own country, it can be even more critical. This preparation tactic can help you save a lot of money in the event of an accident. A major mistake that campers make is they will get lost on occasion. Do not let this happen to you. If you are unfamiliar with the area you are camping in or if you are in a wilderness area, do not stray too far from your campsite. A portable GPS is an excellent investment if you are planning any kind of wilderness camping adventure. What Do I Need To Go CampingPack the duct tape. Duct tape is good for so many things. You can use it to repair holes in tents, inflatables, shoes and just about anything else you can think of. To avoid blistered and chapped feet on your camping trip, bring a bar of soap along! Prior to any lengthy walk, rub the soap into the heals of your socks and this will minimize friction, thus reducing soreness. Keep the soap in your pocket for a quick dose when your feet start feeling beat-up or blistered. What To Eat While CampingWhen you are packing your clothing for a camping trip, remember that it is best to dress in layers. This way, you can add or remove clothing to make you more comfortable. Take along a rain coat that you can put on top of every other layer to keep you dry if it rains. On your next fishing trip, go fishing. Fishing is a great way to enjoy yourself while you're out in nature, but it also helps you pack more lightly because you catch your food on the trip instead of having to bring it with you. Learn to de-bone a fish before leaving home and you'll have easy fish dinners on your camping trip. A great tip for anyone that is going camping is to take plenty of water. In this case, there is absolutely no such thing as too much water. Plan out how much water you will need and then try and at least double the amount just to be on the safe side. When you are going camping, do your best to get as early of a start as possible. It will be your job to pitch your tent so you have somewhere to rest comfortably, and that will be much harder for you to do once it starts to get dark outside. If you don't like to drink water, you will be in real trouble on a long camping trip. Water is essential to staying hydrated, so if you really hate the taste, purchase some one-use lemonade and add it to bottles of water. This will keep you hydrated throughout your adventure. Be mindful of your camp location choice. Refrain from setting your camper up next to bees nests or breeding grounds for safety. To keep the bugs off of your skin, wear garments that cover your skin especially if plant life is abundant. Always bring insect repellent on any camping trip. Think folding chairs when packing for your camping trip. You will want folding chairs to sit in around the campfire. The best type of folding chairs are those that have a case with a strap. This type of chair makes it easy to tote when hiking or visiting other campers. Plan what you're going to wear before setting off on a camping trip. Make sure you have plenty of clean clothes for the duration of your trip. You should also make sure that you pack suitable clothes for the weather forecast and activities planned. Even if you don't plan to do any hiking, you should wear study shoes or boots meant for hiking, in case your vehicle breaks down or you get lost. Especially if you live in a hotter climate, you need to make sure you know how to get ice. Ice melts rather fast, and you're going to need more. Sometimes you can buy ice at the campsite, or sometimes at a store, but there are times when ice isn't so close to where you're camping. Plan ahead for keeping everyone entertained throughout your trip. You do not need to stick to just sitting around a campfire and roasting marshmallows. Think about enjoyable activities for all family members. Take older and younger kids into consideration when thinking of something to do. Now that you have a good idea about how to plan for your camping trip, you can start planning and packing. Explore the wonders that nature has provided you to enjoy. Keep your camera ready! You are going to want to capture as many memories as possible on your next camping excursion. ![]() |
