Camping List

Camping List For Beginners

Camping List

When you decide to go out on a camping trip, overpacking is usually the biggest issue people run into. Here is a camping list that I feel will get anyone started in the wonderful world of camping! Simply click on any item to learn more about it.

Making a camping list is very important to make sure you do not forget anything important. I like to break my camping list up into sections.

Shelter

Having a nice dry comfortable place to call home for the weekend is very important. Make sure to bring a Tent that can breathe. This will keep condensation from accumulating and also keeps you from overheating at night. Laying a Tarp or Footprint under your tent will protect the floor of your tent from moister or damage caused by sticks and pine needles.

Camp Tools

These tools will help you set up and tare down camp. They will also help with fire making. When working with Tools always make sure to have a First Aid Kit available.

Camp Needs

Sitting around camp is one of the most relaxing things there is. Having all of these things handy will make your experience much more comfortable and tolerable. Make sure to keep bugs out of your cups, cans, and food.

Night Time Needs

When the sun goes down and the woods get calm having a way to light up the path in front of you or finding items at camp will be much easier.

Camp Cooking

One of the best parts about camping is all the delicious meals and snacks. Make sure you have a way of preparing everything you bring.

Clothes

Make sure to Bring enough clothes for each day. Also, no matter what the weather make sure to bring pants to keep the bugs away. Something warm to change into at night is always a plus or after swimming.

  • Swimsuit
  • Shirts
  • Shorts
  • Pants
  • Hoodie
  • Shoes
  • Sandles
  • Undergarments

This list is just a starting point to make sure you do not over pack or forget something that will make your stay in the woods less than amazing. Feel free to print this list off and use it on your next big camping trip.

Mountain House Meals

The Best Mountain House Meals

I have been eating Mountain House meals for many years now. The best part about these meals is there are NO DISHES! Simply boil water in a cup and pour it right in the bag. After 8-9 minutes it will be ready to eat right from the bag. Mountain House has come out with a new Pro-Pak option that is vacuum sealed and much smaller than the standard meals.

Camera T5I

YouTube Camera Gear – How I Make My Videos

My YouTube camera gear has evolved over time and I have made many upgrades along the way. I would like to share with you the 5 things that have really made my videos the best!

  1. Canon T5I Canon T5I camera  – My camera is a DSLR that can film 1080p at 60 frames per second. This allows me to make high-quality videos that are beautiful to watch.
  2. Basic Amazon Tripod Basic Amazon Tripod camera – Having a big camera makes having a tripod a must have item. Making videos that are stable with zero shake makes a big difference in viewing nature.
  3. Rode Video Mic Go Rode Video Mic Go camera Having a high-quality microphone really makes the audio in your videos stand out from others. I love how this microphone not only captures what I am saying but also the natural sounds of the great outdoors.
  4. Saramonic Dual Wireless Lavalier Microphone Saramonic Dual Wireless Lavalier Microphone camera – This wireless lavalier mic has been a life saver when being in the range of the Rode Video Mic Go isn’t always an option.
  5. Natural Day Light – There is something about the sun that just makes your videos look and feel professionally done. Sitting in front of a window, or being outside will turn your videos into something truly amazing.

These 5 things have really transformed my videos from being awkward and hard to follow to fun to watch and beautiful. This is a very expensive setup but by saving over time I was able to get my videos to look and sound amazing!

5 Camping Hacks for Adults

Here are 5 camping hacks for adults that can help you optimize your fun and relaxation in the woods.

  1. Carry your shampoo and body wash on a lanyard – finding a place to keep your shampoo and body wash at a camp shower or in a body of water isn’t always the easiest thing to do. Keeping it around your neck can really make things easy no matter where you plan to take your next bath.
  2. Pre-mix your favorite adult drinks in mason jars – Mixing drinks isn’t always the easiest when you don’t have a level surface to prep on. Mix your drinks at home in mason jars and throw them in the cooler for easy grab and go cocktails.
  3. Freeze water in Gatoraid bottles – Fill old Gatoraid bottles 3/4 full of water and freeze them. Not only will it help keep your cooler cold but it will also give you drinking water for the next morning.
  4. Keep your scrambled eggs in mason jarsMason jars are very useful when it comes to outdoor living. Scramble eggs with all the fixings into mason jars, it helps keep them safe in the cooler and saves tons of time cooking in the mornings.
  5. Carry a fan – Using a fan in the woods isn’t just a good way to keep cool, it also helps with bug control.
