What tent should you use? I recommend a tent that is bigger than you think you'll need. If inclement weather sets in, you'll have a spot out of the elements for reading and playing games. My tent is big enough for two people, two cots, two chairs and two dogs.
There is nothing wrong with having a checklist. Things frequently forgotten are: extra batteries, trash bags, kitchen towels, hats, reading material, sleeping pillows, hiking boots and pet food.
Your most important camping gear should always be on your body. Not in your pack, not in your tent or in your vehicle. Whenever you leave camp always have a watch, a whistle, a cell phone, a flashlight and a knife on your person.
Some neat tidbits I've picked up over the years are: a golf towel is perfect for hanging in your kitchen because it comes with a grommet, you can never have enough zip lock bags, you won't find me camping without a flare - it's perfect for lighting wet firewood, my camp chairs have side tables attached to them, I
pre-cook baked potatoes at home and warm them up in the camp fire, in good weather my hammock gets lots of use.
Car camping allows you to take virtually anything with you when you camp. But the most important of all is good company. Take along good friends and family. When you do, it doesn't really matter if you have the best gear or the best techniques, the one thing you will have is the best of times. Use this information
