what around the house first aid supplies should be taken on a one night camping trip?

Posted in Camping Supplies  by admin on December 23rd, 2008

Im going camping with my cousins, and uncles on Friday and like always im concerned something is gonna happen to someone or me.Its gonna be a one nighter fire,bb guns,some real old firecrackers that might send a tent blanket up in flames.and last if someone gets there tongue burned with a fajita(little cousins,gotta watch out for um lol).

What is nessecary to take?

bandages and gauze of various sizes
moleskin for blisters
antiseptic creams and ointments
sterile wipes
pain medication
a knife preferably a swiss army one with tweezers and scissors
sunburn relief spray
Hydrogen Peroxide
Neosporin for cuts

If you can try to keep the firecrackers in the trunk of a car or something until you're ready to use them. If not keep them away from the tents and as far from a fire as possible with water nearby.

i need a list of camping supplies?

Posted in Camping Supplies  by admin on December 20th, 2008

i have no idea where im going the school wont tell us until the day of and i will be gone for 3 days with my 7th grade class ummm every thing has to fit in a backpack that i can carry my teacher is having us stand in a line with our backpacks on and nothing in our hands so all our gear has to be atached to our bags ive got a tend a sleeping bag and pad wat else do i need? i have a 2 man tent with two girls in it

Find you a bar soap that you can use for your hair and leave ALL the other beauty stuff behind – this isn't a fashion show and the scented stuff will only attract insects. Toothbrush and toothpaste and a hairbrush – bring a bandana or two if you have extra long hair.

Clothing – loose-fitting cottons – it won't hurt you to wear the same pants for a few days – socks can be dried and re-worn – underclothes I leave to you. Bring plastic bags to keep the dirties away from the cleans. A pair of flip-flops are handy for wearing around camp and gives you a chance to dry your real shoes.

Food – You didn't mention if you're expected to provide all your own meals. I doubt it given the circumstances mentioned. It does look like you'll want a supply of snacks, though. Avoid chocolate as it melts. Bring stuff that has some substance to it, like the granola bars. They'll fill you up better.

A spare rain poncho – some extra trash bags – toilet paper – female necessities, if applicable – cold/allergy meds – towel(which doubles as a pillow by the way) – Flashlight (the crank-style are pretty handy and don't require batteries) – ZipLoc baggies for as much as possible – baby wipes (for cleaning and a spot "shower" – but get the unscented only) – sewing kit – spare shoelaces – extra bandana or two – sunglasses – sunscreen – bug repellant

Best camping supplies?

Posted in Camping Supplies  by admin on December 18th, 2008

to carry for a few miles into the woods to set up camp, not drive in and carry 2 feet, what is the best tent to take with you that is light weight, durable,between 100-300 dollars, and 2-3 person. And what elese could you recommend to go with this tent.

Think "Weight" – small " geodome style tent ( that can freestand – staking in rocky terrain is a challenge) – quite a few these days to choose from.
Good quality frame backpack- I always liked the external frames myself.
Rain parka that can cover you and the pack while hiking. Quality Holofil or similar ( man-made) sleeping bag – still insulates when wet unlike down. (make sure it has double zipper guards and check that the stitching doesn't go through the inside layer- causes heat loss)
Primus Lp camp stove – numerous models to look at ( see link).
Lightweight camp stove/utensil kit.
First Aid kit
Emergency flares – I like the self contained units.
Survival pocket blanket – can do a lot of things with this and it's really lightweight.
Small roll of Duct tape.
Matches sealed from water – numerous small packs.
Leatherman tool.

what are the best camping supplies for camping in alaska?

Posted in Camping Supplies  by admin on December 17th, 2008


The key word in your question is also the key word in the answer…..”BEST”. What ever works best in any of the mountainous states in the lower 48 states will work best in Alaska as well. Buy name brand products with good reputations and good warranties and head for the woods. Alaska is a unique state, but it does not require unique equipment that can’t be found anywhere but here. There are four seasons here just as there are in most other parts of the North American continent and equipment selected for the appropriate seasons will be just as applicable here as it will in any other typical climate in the continental states.
