Many people think they know what to do if they get lost while camping or hiking yet hundreds each year wander off into the woods unprepared, finding that they do not have the tools that they need to survive in the wild. You can often combine your camping trip with some exercise while enjoying some hiking and often climbing as well.
You may have to spend some time looking through your gear before getting out there. There are a wide variety of campsites all over the country in every state and area. A tent offers you protection above your head but you will still need something soft between you and the cold hard ground.
Candles will are the most cost effective form of light but you have to be very careful not to start a fire with them. Once you realize that you are lost, it is time to stop moving. Dressing warmly is obviously a major issue.
Camping flashlights are dependable and reliable. You could sneak in there before everyone else did, and pretend it was your own little home. You may need to find a dead tree, a piece of driftwood or a large chunk someone else had and couldn't cut up for firewood.
There are many ways to experience camping, so get out there and go for it. If you re a climber, you should give ice climbing a try for a true adrenaline rush.
