Hi everyone, I'm desperate to try and help my family in PR. They have no water or power and are drinking rain water. I found out the main branch of their post office is finally open for pickups and I'm trying to send small stuff that can make it through. Does anyone have suggestions? They are...

I know I haven't been on here in forever lol. Lots of life getting in the way of camping, but anyway... We're nerds and we wanted to go see the solar eclipse. The path of totality is about 6 hrs away and everything... I mean everything, has been booked for weeks! Every camp ground, even the...

We're planning to go to a Wiggles concert in DC and I was wondering what are the best campgrounds in that area? Sent from my LGLS996 using Tapatalk

I noticed on our last trip that I kept waking up with swollen eyes. Not much in the way of other symptoms, except I had been experiencing vertigo on and off before so I don't think that was related. My husband unpacked the air mattress in the tent before he noticed it was pretty moldy (he...

We normally sleep in sleeping bags on the floor of the tent (although we did have an inflatable mat for two trips that we no longer have). We actually sleep on Japanese style futons on the floor at home, so it feels pretty natural that we would sleep the same way while camping. However, the...

It can be anything. One item in particular that's your absolute favorite piece of gear or your favorite from each category (such as cooking, supplies, fire starters, etc). Even items that are not necessarily camping gear, but that you have to take camping with you, such as fishing gear...

Our tent has been taking a beating. Looks like we may have to get a new tent for the whole family and I might scratch my former idea of getting a smaller instant tent. I have a couple of ideas of what would be a more suitable replacement for our old family tent, but there is a pending issue...

We're leaving in about an hour to go camping despite some strife... Wish me luck lol. Hoping to have some peace on my kayak, fishing. Still have way too much packed so I'm gonna work on streamlining our gear some more for next time. We're still taking the huge grill this time.

There are a lot of options out there now for camping/outdoor attire and it seems I've barely scratched the surface. For everyday use, I normally wear a lot of cotton clothes, which kind of sucks for being outside, especially in heat. I saw a recent sale on bamboo clothing and found I like that...

I was wondering how camping has trickled over into everyday life for everyone else? For me, I'm obsessed with yurts and living off grid. I finally convinced my husband about the yurt thing but his compromise was that it wouldn't be completely off grid. I'm also into foraging. I don't do much...

My grandparents bought us a very beautiful, very cumbersome "camping" grill. I use the term camping loosely because it requires a full size propane tank and it's huge... It takes up an entire rubbermaid bin not even including the tank. I was thinking of replacing our actual grill at home with...

Our tent is pretty quick to set up, but not with toddlers trying to run across it during setup. I found a cool beach shade/tent that you just pull a cord and set 8 stakes. I'd like to find something similar for a camping tent that I can set up by myself with 3 little kids running around. Any...

Hello everyone, My name is Melissa and I'm 28. I've got 3 little kiddos and we all enjoy camping. So far we've only been to pay camping spots like First Landing and Shenandoah. I'd like to get into dispersed camping in the near future, though. We have 2 trips scheduled to new spots next...
