We have all seen great lists of camping essentials, but there are some items you should not do without. There are different techniques required for climbing in ice covered terrain and it s much different than climbing in dry terrain.
Ice climbing is an absolute blast once you get past the fact you are essentially climbing water. Mountain climbing experiences are unpredictable. When was the last time you went to sleep listening to crickets and bullfrogs, an owl hooting or the soulful cry of the loon.
Pack tents and sleeping gear so you can gather around the fire and cook a great meal while telling ghost stories or playing games. Websites like this one will help you by recommending the necessary equipment as well as providing information about how to approach ascends and descents. Veggies are also easy to hold and eat while hiking or sitting by the campfire.
Bring along nature and wildlife guides to investigate different types of insects, animals and plant life. How to choose the right sleeping bag, what utensils to carry with you, how to pack and what to do and what not to do at your camping grounds. Taking a few courses is a great way to share in outdoor survival techniques while having a lot of fun.
But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself. If you are new to hiking, it may be a good idea to take some hiking safety classes before going out alone.
