Camping Cot
My Camping List Is Never-Ending
My camping list seems to last forever! Who doesn't love to go camping? Lying under the stars listening to the sound of nature all around you, building a fire out of nothing but sticks to keep you warm. Getting in touch with nature is the best satisfaction of going camping, but the camping list of things to pack seems endless.
Some people are avid campers so they seem to know all the tricks of the trade on how to pack the least possible. There are few factors involved when packing for camping... How long are you going to be gone and what necessities do you have to have?
Length of stay is a major factor when going camping. After you decide how long you will be away from home you can then decide how many meals you are planning on cooking and how elaborate you plan on making them. Most families that go camping just have sandwiches that make everything seem easy. A cooler, ice, sandwich meat, condiments such as mustard or mayonnaise, paper plates and drinks is about all you need for this feat.
If you plan on cooking you will need pots or pans, dish soap, rag to scrub your dirty dishes with, grill, food items, cutting board if you plan on cutting up meat or vegetables. When we go out we cook every meal but lunch, lunch is always sandwiches and chips. A large cooler is best when going camping because you can fit a lot into it.
There are other staple items that you need also when planning a camping trip such as a tent, sleeping bags, cots, pillows, toiletry items, propane cylinders if you plan on taking a gas grill, tarp, bug spray, snack food are just a few.
Camping is an experience that the whole family can do any age and any sex. You can pack everything except the kitchen sink but after you camp a few times you will find yourself weeding things out and realizing that you don't need everything after all.
