Go camping

What to bring with you?You should bring all the things you need to camp such as sleeping bags, bed linens, pillows, food, eating and cooking utensils.Insect repellent is advisable.And finally, don’t forget your sense of adventure!

The places we all choose to go outdoors to camp, to walk, to ride, to climb, to paddle, to fly and to sail, are very special.
Choosing a place to camp check the camping regulations and conditions for the area you are visiting. You may need to book ahead and obtain a camping permit. Some areas have limits placed on group sizes. Some campsites may be closed at certain times of year or for regeneration.
Plan to camp at an existing designated campsite, rather than having to create a new site. Good campsites are found, not made. Altering a site is not necessary.

Plan Ahead
-Make sure you are familiar with the area. Obtain all the maps you’ll need for the roads and trails in the area.
-Let someone know where you will be and when you will return. Have a plan in case you don’t return on time.
-Check on the weather!
-Rever ever take fireworks into the wildlands with you.
-Repackage food to minimize waste

Campfire
-Check the fire regulations and conditions for the area you are visiting before your trip.
-Where fires are permitted, use established fire rings or fire pits if provided. As campfires scar the earth, avoid creating a new scar.
-Build campfires away from overhanging branches, steep slopes, rotten stumps, logs, dry grass, and leaves. Pile any extra wood away from the fire. Scrape away litter, duff, and any burnable material within a 10-foot-diameter circle. This will keep a small campfire from spreading.
-Keep plenty of water handy and have a shovel for throwing dirt on the fire if it gets out of control.
-Start with dry twigs and small sticks. Add larger sticks as the fire builds up. Put the largest pieces of wood on last, pointing them toward the center of the fire, and gradually push them into the flames.
-Keep the campfire small. A good bed of coals or a small fire surrounded by rocks gives plenty of heat.
-Escaped campfires can become devastating bushfires. Put out campfires completely before you leave.

Be considerate to others
-Respect the rights of other visitors to enjoy the outdoors as much as you and protect the quality of their experience.
-Let nature's sounds prevail. Avoid loud voices and noises.
