Do not assume you can collect firewood from the area. It’s smart to bring your own wood and make sure it stays in a dry area.

TIP! Find your shelter before it gets dark. Once it is dark in the woods, pitching a tent can be next to impossible, finding firewood can be difficult and preparing food hard.

When buying a tent, be sure that it’s large enough to accommodate you and any guests you have. This ensures the most comfortable sleeping arrangement and allows you to move about without disturbing others.

Camping has the potential to be thrilling or hazardous, depending on your level of preparation. Only go camping once you are fully prepared. If you go someplace new, research wildlife and research the weather and geography.

Double-check any medical insurance. If you go to another state, you may have to have another policy. If you plan to travel to a different country, such as Canada, then its is especially important. This preparation tactic can help you save a lot of money in the event of an accident.

TIP! You might think you can find enough wood for your fire in the woods, but the wood you find might be wet and not want to burn. It is good planning to take your own wood with you and store it where it is dry.

If possible, incorporate swimming into your camping trip. You might long for a good shower when you are camping. The coolness of the water will help you feel cleaner and more refreshed, so you won’t miss your shower as much as you thought you might!

Bring oranges. Not only are they nutritious, but the peels can be used for mosquito repellant. Enjoy the oranges and then rub the inside of the peel on any exposed skin to keep insects at bay.

Purchase a few camping pillows to take with you. If you take along a regular bedroom pillow, it can get hot and sticky when it is humid outside. Those big pillows can also mildew, because they absorbs moisture. Pillows made especially for camping have a protective outer layer that prohibits moisture absorption.

TIP! Always keep a close eye on yourself, your family, and your possessions; as they will all get a little dirty. If you’re prepared beforehand then you won’t be so stressed out when things start to get dirtier.

Before you camp in a new location, you should familiarize yourself with the local dangers and risks. This includes things like which spiders are deadly, whether or not there are sheer drops, and if flash floods are common. Every camping spot has its own potential dangers for the untrained.

Be certain you are prepared for any event when you’re camping. Even if you plan in advance, something may still go wrong. The weather could change suddenly, you could encounter hostile people or animals, and someone could become sick or injured. It’s important to not be careless, not take any unnecessary risks, and to think before taking any actions.

As you are now aware, any number of unexpected events can occur when you are camping. But you should now be equipped to handle basic things that come your way. Being forewarned you can now enjoy your trip away and have a lot of fun on your next camping vacation!
