...when I'm tripping I often wear one wash one. I take along one of those camp towels. I still see some of my colleagues complain they don't have enough room in their pack and then bring out this humongous beach towel. :p

...and then there is - It's whatever that turns you on.

...yes I am a four season camper preferring summer of course. But I do like to get away a few times in the winter [to keep my credibility of being a four season] adventurer. For sure you need to dress properly and correctly - your life counts on it. First Picture was last April the second...

...and then there is winter camping.

...I think I'm going to make one of those medieval chairs as a winter project. I'm missing the summer already.

...I sold my 12 X 20 four season Alaknak to a guy in Edmonton Alberta. Though I still have two left (9X9 and a 10X10) I miss the big one for longer stays. Like you say it's like having a cabin to sleep in. The fun part of it was that I made tent furniture to compliment the space. :)

...hike with a purpose rather than just walking along. Check out historical sights, look for various animals, birds, etc., find simple treasurers. Have a purpose. Hiking is not to be a boring experience unless you make it that way. Take a specialty trail, check with foresters for pamphlets and...

...that's a tricky question. The outfit that I would wear is determined on where I'm going, the conditions, and the environment etc. My usual stance is to use pants that are long and can be unzipped into shorts. I have a t-shirt, one long shirt, a rain jacket, an umbrella, hat, headlight for...

...no commercials, no sales pitch, absolutely no news doom, gloom, darkness, or horror.

...a rolling boil at least four minutes. Letting it cool over night makes it a bit tastier in the morning light. But when we are out canoeing we just don't have that time so using a sound device (which we do) makes things a whole lot easier.

Glad to have you online @JoAnn - it's an interesting place catering to all kinds of campers at all different levels of skill and interest. :)

WELCOME TO CAMPING BABBLE - a great place to be. : - ]

...WOW you are brave man. You would attract a lot of attention in this neck of the woods. People would be scratching their heads and wondering what part of the jungle you emerged from. But you must have your reasons? Unfortunately you would not be able to canoe with us - high risk people are a...

...and then of course in our neck of the woods organized camp grounds supply a grill; certainly in Algonquin and other provincial park lands. :thumbsup: I'm more interested in bringing a light weight portable pack table so I have something level to prepare and eat food. :)

THE TRANS CANADA TRAIL SCHEDULED TO OPEN IN 2017 FOR THE NATION'S 150TH IS THE LONGEST TRAIL ON THE PLANET. "GO AHEAD..it's in yah." EXPLORE THE NATION; DISCOVER YOURSELF!

...I like solitude. Close friends are a plus. Groups can be an venture on its own. Visualize twelve guys and six packed canoes coming down the water way headed for that point just around the bend. The all of a sudden they brake out into a furious paddle as they race to get to the best tent...

Really like the avatar - welcome to Camping Babble - a great site.

...as one who hears confessions from time to time I thought yours to be interesting. I personally make every effort to be in places where there are no bathrooms, swimming pools, club houses or anything like that. Ya...I call it campin! So...should I be feeling guilty? :) Let me feel real...

...ouch - I've never really had any trouble with yellow jackets, bees, wasps or hornets. Killer bees are in the States and are slowly headed toward Canada - they might be a problem some day. The only biting creatures that I've had good experience with are deer flies, black flies, ticks, and...

...there are a lot of products in the market that do not work according to the Consumers Agencies. Most are a waste of money and time. That is why it is important to read the label. A lot of companies spend a lot of money promoting their product line but don't spend money improving their product.
