oregon dunes camping

Backpacking is a fun and refreshing activity that can be fun for the whole family, you may be near the mountains or in your back yard, but no matter where you are it can be a great experience. Mountaineering or mountain climbing is a classic sport, which has been done for countless years.

Ice climbing is an absolute blast once you get past the fact you are essentially climbing water. My favorite place to hike is the Rocky Mountains. Make sure that you have a good first aid kit too.

Make sure to bring along a first aid kit complete with sterile bandages, gauze and disinfectant. Battery powered lanterns tend to not work well in colder climates as the batteries tend to run down faster due to the cold. Never leave a candle that is burning in your tent unattended and never fall asleep with a burning candle or a burning lantern in your tent.

You might want to ditch that old tent your father passed along to you, and upgrade to a contemporary one. There are many ways to experience camping, so get out there and go for it.
