camper jacks - hiking and camping how to

While it is more challenging than other forms of climbing, ice climbing can be the most rewarding and exhilarating. If your hiking involves climbing, there are hiking boots that are designed to accommodate climbing attachments that you may need when crossing steep mountains or icy paths.

Most camping trips are best enjoyed in places that have never been visited before by you. I like an occasional break from the madness of the city, and like to go out for a camping or hiking trip. Also be sure to bring equipment and supplies in case of emergency or accident.

It is important to have a solid base providing the support your entire body needs. While hiking and climbing, a pro is used much like in traditional climbing but the protective devices used in ice climbing take on a different aspect.

Layers allow you to reduce or increase clothing as and when the temperatures change. Not until we camped in British Columbia did we learn what camping was all about. A good flashlight always comes in handy especially at remote locations.

Albert Einstein even said it, "Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better," and he was right. Many campers build lifelong friendships with their camping neighbors and return to the same spot at the same time year after year to reconnect with them.
