Some of us long for the great outdoors while others much rather stay in a fancy hotel that has room service and a large swimming facility. I must admit, both types of scenarios do have their perks; but there truly is something special about piling up all the belongings you will need for a weekend camping trip.
What types of things do you find necessary to have while gracing the great outdoors? Everyone differs when it comes to packing things they think are crucial. Heck, some people pack enough to last a lifetime when in reality they only need enough stuff for a few days. The size of your vehicle can play a role in how much stuff you can bring as well. If you are driving a truck, usually you can load the bed up quite a bit opposed to if you had a small vehicle where you can only load the trunk up and potentially the back seat if no on is occupying it.
Ten crucial items that you should need for a successful camping trip are as follows:
1. Comfy shoes-you never know where you might have to walk to
2. Chocolate-believe me, if you don’t have it, you will wish you did
3. Blanket-whether it’s warm or cold out; it can protect you from bugs
4. Flash light-crucial if you need a bathroom break late at night
5. Knife-to protect you from wild animals or cut necessary things
6. Lighter-to help you start a fire or scare away creatures
7. Camera-to capture that gorgeous sunset or huge grizzly bear
8. Cell phone-if you get reception at all; just in case of an emergency
9. Water-even if you have other beverages; this is a must
10. Shovel-to dig the fire pit and bury the fire when you’re done
Whether you are going camping just a couple of miles from your office space in Tucson or on the other side of the state, these are all things that are handy for you to have with you. You never know what the great outdoors will have in store you so it’s always good to be prepared.
For those of you that normally like to stay in hotels; it would be wise to give camping a try. I think for once you can go without that nice bathroom and shampoo that gives you silky soft hair. You never know, you could like it so much that you decide to sell your house and camp in the woods for the rest of your life. Then again, maybe you will just like it enough to make it a once year family adventure.
