Going camping with my bf for the first time, what do I need?

February 10th, 2012 | by admin |

I haven’t gone camping since I was about 12, so I have absoultely no camping gear, unless you count my princess sleeping bag that will probably go to my waist.

He has no camping gear either, because he just moved out and everything he had was his parents.

So we’re going shopping for all new stuff, stuff thats really strong and durable so they will last for a long long time. Price isn’t important to us at all..

If you have any camping gear that you absolutely love, give us a link to the store name.

Most likely we’ll be shoppping at target/walmart/academy

We need a checklist to make sure we don’t forget anything, because once we go, we’re going for a week, and were not coming back for anything. And we’re camping in the middle of now where, so we can’t go buy anything.

Anything helps, we don’t mind long lists!

Thank you very much for your time!

    I think Hmmm, after journeys ichgewesen and 7 international journeys ichgewesen on 8 come-jetty-end, that I am versed a little in the packing and journeys, which are prepared. For the Kampieren you try this:

    2 large backpacks (preferably with the internal/filled up frameworks), 1 medium sized plastic cooling device (maintenance material cold weather inside, hopeful with a lockable cap)
    1 tent with 4 – 6 persons (better and better, little extra area to preferably have the kind you throw and he place themselves) up
    2 sleeping bags and a piece of 3& quot; Foam cut to cover to of 90% of the floor of your tent rolled held, to uses
    2 small water bottles (500 ml 1 for everyone of you) and 1 large (4 L for extra water) & amp; + 3 days) your water bottles fill up sufficient food for your complete journey as frequently, as you. can.
    1 Coleman come-jetty-coming jetty that furnace and 3 bottles gas
    1 small pot, a hand grill and a small Bratpfanne and soap & amp; plastics scrubby it with clean
    Putty, wooden spoon, 2 sporks, 2 shatterproof bowls, 2 meal measurers, drawing spoon, 2 dishes, 2 plates
    measurers and 1 small axe sorted 2 acceptably

    To a good firm answer received, them wà ¼ rde help to register, if you are car, Kajak/Kanu or walking of the Kampierens. The general geographical range and the season. If you walk, do not find to anything at Walmart etc. You& #039; ll necessity to go to on-line and find light gear wheel, your sentence should be under 40lbs, which is maximum without water. Während of the summer should have you a gallon water per day während the summer per person. 2 people 6 days = 12 gallons water, which is ungefähr 100 Pound. If you announce little more info., you should receive to some Qualitätsantworten. The Kampieren of the good Glà ¼ cks is tend it Spaà Ÿ and vergà ¼. It could be intelligent to do journeys of a Paarwochenenden Erschà ¼ tterung down to do one week ago one long. Trust me I, learned VE assign from the things the hard way.

    The two most important things are, how one meals and where you sleeps cooks. If those two things are covered, to have them enough to receive to past. All different one is for comfort or extra comfort. Flashlights and extra batteries prevent a tripping into the darkness. Get 50% further food to need to expect than you. They are surprised, as much you eat. The best places for gear wheel are L.L. Bean, Campmor and Cabella& #039; s. All three ship UPS and have web site. Bean L. – L. has the best warranty everywhere. Before the statement for one week in the wilderness I would aim at one weekend at a Campground. With the Kampieren for one week you must have something to do. A Kartenstapeles or a strong book can retard boredom. Have fun and to remain you drying.

    Looks like you, the two greensticks sufficient lists in such a way won& #039 have; T-throw more material at to buy you. But I wouldn& #039; t suggest buying the important material at the Ziel/an Walmart/an of the academy. Walmart tents are for come-jetty-end backyard, receive a good tent with 3 seasons. For you remind to receive to you which you pay. I may do mine in the free gear wheel, which is received to free business and label name gear wheel like mounain hardware or north face at the local in shoping.

    I found also any really good in the free gear wheel at my local army supply army supply memorysupply memory.

    The best advice, which I can give fà ¼ to r the people, those out, begin to kampieren, is to be borrowed, or, to rent a tent you form for debt also, which you have already at home (Schlafsäcke and covers in place of the mummy bags, campfire grill in place of of the camp furnace, etc.) to only buy and the absolute features. Afterwards this first journey you& #039; discover ll whether you even kampieren mögen, which gear wheel or didn& #039 worked; t and have a better idea of the level of the comfort, you in the free one wà ¼ the nschen. Fà ¼ r some people means this the following mark, which remains in a hotel or goes into a relaxing Träger, während other people walking takes up wà ¼ nschen could, little other sentence the Ausrà ¼ stung required.

    My point list 10 of the bases fà ¼ r the Autokampieren of the first time:
    1. Rain gear wheel: PVC or à ¼ berzogener Nylonponcho
    2. Tent, plastic basic sheet, bars, mallet
    3. Schlafsäcke & amp; Covers
    4. Foam sleeping editions however not air mattresses
    5. Camp furnace or small BBQ (or wood as necessary), lighter, Geräte, measurer, bowls, plates, Dosenöffner, Papiertà ¼ more cher, etc.
    6. The KÃ ¼ hlvorrichtung, which is full from the perishable food from the ice and, drinks
    7. Bug spray, with DEET

    8. Light protection, hat
    9. First assistance Ausrà ¼ stung
    10. Flashlight, spare batteries
