Camp eccentials
« on: September 16, 2011, 03:40:52 PM »
Because of unforeseen events ( Work schedule changes, Large wildfire back home, financial woes) am pulling first solo camp in several yrs. Finding that am not as fully equipped as thought. I have the large items (Tent, sleeping bag, personal equipment) but finding I need to get the small overlooked items. (Opening pork and beans with teeth only works in cartoons I found. Lol). What items would u deem essential for comfortable solo camp. No matter how small. Any help appreciated
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me

Is it me, or are people getting dumber

We need to get spell check fixed or someone needs to tell me where I can purchase some eccentials to add to my essentials.  :chuckle: :chuckle:

Don't forget to double check that you packed your release as I learned the hard way and wasted a weekend of hunting. :chuckle:

Most important is to be able to eat and stay dry. Water purification is also super important. After that its all about how much you want to carry and have with you. Wouldn't mind having a tarp so that you can have a dry area to be in besides the tent.
