Camping holds a unique place as a recreational activity. It is not only about camping being a pleasurable activity at times of leisure, but also a great deal more about physical as well as mental well-being. It is significantly also about establishing a symbiotic connection with nature. A heavy toll has been taken in the name of human progress. Run away pollution has taken its toll of the water, land and air. The forests, rivers and valleys are ravaged in the name of development and progress. Humans and the rest of species on earth cannot survive without adapting to an ecologically sustainable development.
Some of the essential things that are required for camping includes camping tent, jacket, sleeping bag, first aid kit, flashlight, knife, matches, food and water. Where there are no basic facilities, one may require camping chair, hammock, camp table, camp stove or grill, fishing pole, small backpack for day hikes, towels and swimsuits. If the weather is cold the camper will have to carry sweatshirt with a hood, jacket, cap, gloves and sleeping bag line. A sunscreen, large hat to ward off the sun rays, extra water, canopy for shade, and a small battery powered fan will be useful if the weather is rather hot.
Camping tent is probably the most important in terms of creating a temporary living abode. Camping tents are varied according to the climate. The one-season tent is used in summer. It can endure light summer rains. The three-season tent can endure heavy rains as well as light snow. This tent is used in spring, summer and autumn and can also offer ventilation, and protection from insects, moderate rain and wind. However, it will not be able to withstand heavy snow. The four season tent is heavier and can withstand winter and heavy snow but is difficult if the climate is hot. There are four season tents that can be converted to three season tents by unzipping a roof panel or removing pole sections. Bibler Ahwahnee for instance is a four-season tent.
Camping is an activity that has within it the potential of reconnecting with nature. This reconnection, it is hoped, will make people more sensitive about how we behave towards nature.
Camping out is a good way to bond with Mother Nature. In doing so, people should always be prepared and bringing an Ahwahnee tent is an effective way to get good night sleep.
