My first Camping Trip
If you are a novice
Camper and wondering what to buy, start with a good
sleeping bag - get one for the type of weather you will be
camping in. If the
sleeping bag is too hot or too cold it can make for a bad trip, but, remember that there are a lot of things to help stay warmer or cooler, like thermal underwear, sweat suits or shorts. You can also use a blanket. I carry an old
sleeping bag that the zipper was lost and put it on the ground and
sleep on top of it if it is warmer. I cover up with it if it is colder. A
sleeping pad is also great, or an
air mattress is even better. I have done many trips with just a
sleeping bag, but, the more comfortable you are the better your
camping trip will be. There is a wide selection of
tents to choose from that will
sleep from 1 to 8 people or more. A 2 or 3 man
tent will work fine for most
camping trips. If you are
hiking it is better for the
tent to be small, like a 1 man
tent, and light weight. If you are
hiking to the
camp site you might want a lightweight
tent and
backpack, depending on how much you can or are planning to carry. If you are driving to your
camp site you can carry heavier
tents, etc. We have used a 2 room
tent that you can stand up in sometimes, but, the
tent needs to be a good quality
tent. Do you want a lot of room? How many people is it for? When you get your
tents, set it up in the backyard or some where so you can see what it is like to set up your
tent and make sure all the parts are there. Set it up 2 or 3 times so you are familiar with your
tent. You can also put your
sleeping bag in your
tent, that way you know how you are going to set your
tent up. I always set mine up when I get home from camping just to clean it up and make sure my
tent is good and dry and all parts are good and are still there. That way when I put my
tents up it is ready to go for the next
camping trip. I always carry some seam-seal with me, with a stocked repair kit for emergency use on the trail. When you break
camp (pack everything away) let your
tents be the last thing you break down and pack up, always make sure and dry it out before you put it up. Sweep it out and fold it up and put it back in its storage bag. We also use a rubbermaid tote to put all our gear in
(tents, sleeping bags, air mattress, camping supplies) that way it is all together for the next
camping trip.
Cooking
To cook in your camp there are a lot of things you can do; sandwiches, prepared meals, but, you can't beat a hot cooked meal. That is why at
High Mountain Discount Camping Supply we carry a great line of camping Stoves. When we camped with the Boy Scouts we had hot meals in the morning and evening and sandwiches for lunch. Breakfast was eggs, bacon, sausage,and pancakes. Supper was anything from hamburgers to steaks, hot dogs work great too. We even made biscuits, brownies, and cobbler. We always eat good when we camp. In my opinion, nothing tastes better in the morning than eggs and bacon. You can cook on the camp fire or use a camp stove. They come in sizes from a lightweight personal camp stove to camp stove with 1 to 3 or more burners. They can use propane, butane, or alcohol and some even use white gas. Remember, at home keep your camp stove handy during power outages so you can cook. Again, if you are hiking the lighter your backpack is the better.
What do I need for a hike
To hike, you need to start with a good pair of shoes, something with ankle support. I prefer a hiking boot but, I have done hikes in tennis shoes The best thing is a waterproof hiking boot to keep your feet dry. You need something to carry water in for your hike - a water bottle or canteen will work for this - some
backpacks even have a bladder in them for water. You also need a first aide kit in your
backpack The type of
backpack you need depends on what you like and what you need to carry. They have backpacks for your waist that are small, then day backpacks, an internal frame backpack or external frame backpack that you can carry supplies for a hike for a week or more. For a day hike my suggestion is a small
backpack or a waist pack (fanny pack). I would have a compass (even if you have a GPS), a knife ( I have a Leatherman), a signal mirror, an extra pair socks, and a hand towel. Some optional items are a shirt, Fire starter (flint), some snacks (beef jerky, granola bar, fruit), maybe some gum or candy. You also need a map of the area. Carry a map even if you use a GPS, it might break or you might lose it or the battery might just die and then what. That is where the map and compass come in handy.
