Camping Preparedness

The basics that you should have:

• Hard alcohol: just in case we don't get to a store.  The rest of the items won't matter then. 

• House: tent, pad, pillow, bag.

• Camp chair

• Hat

• Headlamp or other light

• Coffee cup

• A way to heat water or cook: stove, fuel, lighter.  

• Bowl/plate, fork/spoon. 

• Foods that cook easy and are mostly healthy.  Safety Food (like cup noodles) is handy. Coffee (Via) to live proper

• Beanie, hoodie, and general warm wear. The new electric/battery vests are amazing. 

• Camp shoes.  Moto boots aren't fun around camp.

• Several layers of camp clothes to have variability

• Rain protection.  At the very least, a rain jacket, but a tarp or something else is good too.  I carry a collapsible umbrella always.

• Plenty of water or a filter to make fresh water from a stream

• It's key to not over pack.  Think backpacking.  But it's also key to be comfortable.  So, several layers to stay warm and dry is ideal. 

• Wet wipes

• Bug Spray or wipes

• Hand/Pocket Warmers

• Camp Towel

• Toiletries, including shampoo/soap.  This can also help with changing a tube on the trail.
