WHEN and WHERE DO YOU GO CAMPING?

What do you need to go camping? You can be a minimalist and go with the bare necessities or strike the right balance between comfort and practicality. The principal necessities are shelter (and a comfortable bed), food and safety. Whether your choice is hiking or camping-parks-beach or other outdoor pursuit, get the right information.

I recall my early camping and hiking experiences, they were not pleasant at all. Bad tents and even worse bedding, bad equipment, bad planning, bad food and a lack of knowledge. This puts off many potential campers which is unfortunate as it doesn’t need to be that way.

There are so many things available from weatherproof tents and comfortable sleeping gear, great hiking boots, comfortable back packs, easy eating camping food options and a lot more. Whether your choice is hiking or camping-parks-beach or other outdoor pursuit, get the right information.

WHEN and WHERE ARE YOU GOING HIKING?

Don’t you recall your first hiking experience? Whether it was boy scouts or some other group, you may have had some unpleasant experiences, I know I did. I recall the very poor hiking boots, hiking socks and blisters, even worse the painful back-packs, with the wrong clothing, not to mention starvation condition eating and bad planning. Whether your choice is hiking or camping-parks-beach or other outdoor pursuit, get the right information.

The good news is that things have changed, there are excellent hiking-boots available, great back packs, quality light weight clothing and you don’t even have to get lost if you have an inexpensive handheld GPS.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING RV-CAMPING?

The best of all worlds. The RV and motorhome gives couples and families the freedom to travel, without being chained to schedule, or a fixed location and opens up many touring and outdoors adventure travel options. This is also in complete comfort and safety and saving large sums of money on travel and food costs along with hotel and motel charges with a bed that you are happy with. Whether your choice is hiking or camping-parks-beach or other outdoor pursuit, get the right information.

No more crowd stress, no check-in and check-out lines, no baggage, no shuttle buses and taxis, and if the traffic is backed up, well there is your own entertainment system and a frig full of cold drinks. It has been proven that a family can have a 4 week holiday some 50% lower in cost an RV than a vacation using planes, hotels and restaurants, see a lot more, meet a lot more great people, and probably end up a lot more rested and less stressed. Whether your choice is hiking or camping-parks-beach or other outdoor pursuit, get the right information.

People are electing to get RVandmotorhomes more than ever before. There are many variants that fall under the term RV or recreational vehicle. They include motorhomes, campers, camping-trailers tent-trailers, pop-tops, camper vans, caravans, etc The RV newcomer is also confronted with many RV type variants such as the self propelled units that range from Class 1 motorhomes, van conversions, buses and trucks.

Then there are towed RV’s such as the folding trailer, the travel trailer and 5-wheeler along with the conventional towed 4 wheel caravan or trailer etc. Each has differing technical requirements and options for improvement.

What about an RV?

The RV is the land cruising cousin of the seagoing cruising yacht. Self contained with all the home comforts. Like this cousin it is now a complex machine consisting of many systems that include DC power supply, batteries and battery charging along with solar power and lighting systems, GPS navigation and entertainment systems, heating and air-conditioning systems, water and sewage systems, Generators and trailer park AC hookups, and the list goes on.

For many this can be a bewildering array of systems, however you can handle it, maintain and trouble shoot it with some basic knowledge. This website is also your own online Help Desk for RV technical information. How much equipment you install is of course related to budget and where you intend to RV. Whether your choice is hiking or camping-parks-beach or other outdoor pursuit, get the right information.

These decisions will be based on where you intend traveling, whether you intend staying on-road or off-road, road surfaces, how far off the beaten track you intend venturing, and of course for how long. Of course then is the question on how much comfort you want to have in your land yacht and traveling hotel. Those that choose to highway cruise the many roads in America or Europe can fit out to suit.

Those that choose something more adventurous such as a 2 year cruise through the wilds of Australia or Canada will opt for other systems. Whatever you choose they will get you to your planned camping or hiking destination
