How do I plan a successful camping trip without over stressing so I can enjoy it too?
camping blog
Hello,The easiest way is to make a list of items you need.Start with the tent and work through the items as if you are setting up your camp,etc-tent,sleeping items,cooking items,shower items,lights & first aid items.Then move on to the important items,like beer & wine for the end of the day.
Hope this helps,remember the goal is to enjoy your adventure and relax.
Cheers.

I’m ready to go camping now, but its still to cold for my wife. I miss the good old days when we camped year round. I enjoy reading anything about camping and outdoor cooking related. Thx.
Thanks for the list! I’d love to add familycampman.com to it. BTW, the best way to build your list is to just do a google search initially and then adjust with your own experience. Each person/family has their own unique needs/wants when camping.

What a great compilation of sites! It’s almost camping time.
Don’t forget to check out New Jersey Campgrounds”
What a fun and helpful site
I have to agree about the lists. Camping and hiking are both very situational. It all depends on where you’re going, who you’re going with, the time of year, and whether you are primitive camping or in a campground that has sites with electricity and water.
I’m still hoping to add my blog to your list. http://campinginstyle.blogspot.com/ mostly because I think it will apeal to family campers, new campers and woman who are afraid to camp.
Also going through you list of bloggs the Camping Forever is no longer active or even that worthwhile. I put many of your listed bloggs on my site because they were good resources as well.
Thanks again and happy bocci ball playing!
Happy camping from the uk
Thanks for this list!

Love the site. I always find it a problem to find good camping info. This site helps greatly in that search.
Looking for wilderness camping in the Northern VA/D.C./MD/DE areas, where I can have a reasonable campfire and enjoy a beer or two. Any ideas?
Would like mountains and streams and live by the “leave no trace” credo but would like a campfire. I know some are opponents of fires outside of traditional campgrounds but a responsible camper using an already established fire pit/ring should have no worries.
U are right with this list. Thanks a lot!

I like the idea of the blog list…Thanks!
For your readers interested in a quiet outdoor camping experience for tent or RV I have found National Forest Sno-parks to be a great unknown destination. Throughout the Western US anyone can camp free all SUMMER.
The USFS provides basic services (different by ranger district) and all have plenty of space for RV and ATV parking. Some even include shelters with stoves, tables & chairs, ATV & horse staging areas and wilderness hiking trails.
If you camp the Western United States, you can check out the Sno-parks nearest to you at Sno-parks.com.
Camping is FREE so are the services are minimal. If you PACK IT IN - PACK IT OUT! This will keep the area clean and the fees to a minimum.
This is a great list of blogs and should be useful to a lot of people. I have enjoyed searching through the different sites. Thanks again.
Good listing of sites here. Be sure to check out http://www.huntingandcampgear.com for your camping supplies. Happy camping all!
Just found a great new magazine for camping-
http://www.getaway-usa.com
That being said, I don’t doubt that there may very well be something to that, but I also tend to think it’s more likely to be barbecue grills and bon fires and that kind of thing than it would be fireworks.
