Lighten Your Load

Camping can be fun although the packing and hauling around of things may not be. Minimize these downsides by giving careful thought about what camping gear you will truly need for where you are going. Research into the campsite you have picked for your trip and you will save a lot of back-saving information. Try to call ahead or ask people who have already gone there before.

For instance, don’t pack a winter sleeping bag, which is heavier, if you are going summer camping. Choose a tent that is no larger than what you actually need. Trade the space for weight by leaving some gear outside. So give careful thought to your list and take only the essentials. Surprise yourself and find out how much you can do without when away from home.
