The Simple And Easy Camping List

December 2nd, 2009 Posted in Camping

Making a camping list… What is practical? Do you like to get in with the great outdoors by cuddling with your loved ones around a campfire making Smore’s? Do you like to hike through the woods and see all that God has given us? Camping is the best way to accomplish all of that.

Some campers have gotten the packing down to a science on what they can leave behind and what they can’t do without. How long will you be gone is the most important question you need to ask yourself before going on a camping trip. This will allow you to know how much food to take as well as staple supplies.

If your camping trip is going to be a small one then you will not have to pack as much. Packing simple things such as sandwich items, paper products and chips or individual snack foods is a great way to go. Any way you go you will still need to bring along a cooler so you can keep drinks cold.

Many avid campers go and camp just as if they were at home. They will pack pans to wash dishes in, dish soap, cutting boards and pots and pans just as if they were home. When we go camping we usually fix sandwiches for lunch and regular meals for breakfast and dinner. Preparing these items will make your list grow but really is no different than preparing them at home.

A few necessity items that you will need to pack is a grill, tarp, snacks, bath items, sleeping bags, comfortable cot and something to start a fire with.

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.
