How to Pack for a Camping Trip


The wilderness can be unforgiving, even with the proper gear. The last
thing you want is to reach a remote destination and find that you
forgot something essential. Develop a plan to guarantee that you’re
well equipped.
Instructions
1. Establish a staging area. Use a corner of your garage or living room and pile gear there prior to packing. If you have the space, begin moving gear to the staging area several days ahead of time. This prevents overloading your brain at the last minute.
2. Take a good look at your gear pile when you think it’s complete. Spend a minute reviewing your checklist and check everything on it.
3. Pack your clothing. You want to layer your clothing to meet changing temperatures and conditions. Pack spare clothing in case you get wet. Avoid cotton unless your trip is in a very warm climate–cotton dries slowly and offers no insulation when wet. Synthetic long underwear and jackets are best. Include a warm wool or fleece hat.
4. Test your gear before you go. Know how to operate your camp stove, and bring the proper fuel.
5. Purchase several small and medium nylon bags (stuff sacks) to divide your gear. Cooking gear can go in one bag, first aid items in another bag, and so on.
6. Plan your water supply. If water is scarce, consider having a large water bladder in your pack, such as those made by Camelback. In addition to offering a high capacity, water bladders have a hose that allows you to drink while you’re on the move. Water purification tablets are indispensable.
7. Buy a good sleeping pad or two. Many people like to stack a fulllength sleeping pad on top of a shorter one. The extra warmth and comfort makes the weight and bulk worthwhile. Camping stores have several brands of pads, from $20 to $100.
8. Plan your meals ahead, so you’ll be guaranteed to have enough food. For short camping stints, your grocery list might include milk, butter, cheese and crackers, bread, buns, vegetables, fruit, dried and/or fresh, meat (burgers, hot dogs, shish kabobs), canned foods (chili and soup), condiments and spices, trail mix, energy bars, cookies, s’mores fixings, soda, juice, tea, cocoa, cider, coffee and alcoholic beverages.
9. Weigh luxuries against absolute necessities (for instance, a handheld GPS is fun and helpful, but a map and compass work fine, too). Your specific destination may require additional gear or far less, if weight is an issue.

It is a verb category with two principal meaning components: (limited) duration and (possible) incompletion. Most languages treat continuous and progressive aspects as alike and use the two terms interchangeably, but there are languages that distinguish them.
