Throughout my life I’ve always been an inside person, I didn't like to play outside, go to the park, or even hang out with my friends outside. In till last summer my family took me camping for my first time. Let me tell you I’ve never had that much fun in my entire life, I learned how to build a tent, fish, and even learned how to start a fire. Now it’s a family tradition to go camping every summer and bring someone along with us.
I was really upset before all of this started. I didn’t wanna leave the house at all! I always came home, straight to my room to play video games on the PS3. When my parents came to my room and told me we were gonna go camping tomorrow, I got really mad about it. First I didn’t know nothing about camping, so anything I would have to do I knew I wouldn’t like it. I would also have to give up on internet however long our camping trip would be, so that meant no PS3 for me. I was mad everything my parent told me that we were doing I wanted to burey myself in a hole. The very next day My uncle john came over, he was gonna go camping with us. He had packed a tent for me, my sister and himself. Mom and dad already had there tent so he my

To teach me how to get food if I ever had to survive in the woods by my self. He told me, I had to put the worm at the end of the hook so fish can go towards the hook. Then you give the pole a good swing forwards towards the deeper end of the water. I had the pole with the worm on it and did exactly what my father told me to do. It was a matter of time where I felt a tug on my pole. I stared to real in faster an faster, the fish almost got away. My father starts to get on his feet giving me motivation, “you got this son! You got this!” I caught the fish! I had the fish up in the air still attracted the the fishing wire. My dad brought a bucket with water closer to me so I can let the fish in the
I tossed my bow in the bed of the truck and took off and headed to the elk farm. Me and kevin were talking about fishing next summer and how we were going to go every other week. We really got to talking about bowhunting a lot to next year. It was making me smile when i heard that he was going to take me with him anywhere when he can.The next thing i knew was we were at the elk farm ready to kill some deer.
On the way to camp Kangaroobie we went to Mr Mcguane’s farm. The year 5 bus broke down so we came late. When we got there, we walked around this little river skipping rocks and getting stuck in the mud. When we arrived at camp, went to our cabins, and I was with, Emily, Felicia, Sarah, Grace and Klara, we packed our bag and went for a walk down to the beach! It was really fun because we went across rivers and walked through the sand dunes! When we got there, we jumped off and slid down the sand
We were traveling thought all the beautiful places and cities in the country. During our vacation, one day we stopped at a restaurant in a small town. As we were eating, my 16-year-old cousin said to me hurry up, finish your meal and we’ll go play outside. I was a little boy just turned six years. I was excited to go play outside with my cousin, so I was the first one to finish with my meal.
Camping is a fun activity for friends and family, that’s the time where they share their memories, and also make new ones. On the other hand, camping is when people are trying to stay off the rain, and wild animals form attacking them. That’s when camping is a time their lives depends on it. The article “Camping for their lives” by Scott Bransford talk about small and big cities that is over populated with homeless citizens. The article talks about what is happening in the scene, and what they have to face each and everyday order to survive.
I enjoy the outdoors — hiking, camping and building fires— all stemming from my days and nights in the Boy Scouts.
Humans are born with knowledge and instincts related to survival such as the need to find shelter, food, water, and heat; however, if one of these four components is missing from a person’s life, it can result in dire consequences such as sickness, disease, permanent injury, and even death. With one’s knowledge of their surroundings, and ability to stay calm in stressful conditions, their chances of survival are greatly increased. However, if one panics in a life or death situation, the chances of making it out alive are greatly lowered. Being prepared for the worst situations may be a person’s best shot at survival. Unwillingness or inability to prepare could result in extreme results, including death.
A boy in the woods with nothing but him and the elements is a surprising way to relax. It’s not all relaxation the because before you camp you must set up the tent the fire and the food. After that relaxing comes naturally but if you don’t allow time for it you will wish you hadn’t gone. Watching the awesome wildlife from the little bugs under the rocks and tiny song birds to the 200lb bucks and eagles that travel at 80 miles per hour. Camping is the best place to go relax for the night because of how you sit and think to yourself and se all these awesome plants and animals.
It was in July, and we wanted to go camping. I asked my dad if we could go up to our family's cabin in Elk Springs, which is near Montrose. He agreed, so Chase, Tyler and I, all sixteen years old, packed our stuff and were ready to go camping. With excitement, we jumped into Chase's truck, and took off to the woods.
I’m on a muddy, yellow bus coming back from camp. I'm twelve and so are you. Prior to leaving for camp, I had imagined it would be just me and three, maybe four, other boys that I hadn't met yet, running around all summer, getting ourselves into trouble. Playing games and just enjoying our summer. You know, typical boy stuff. Ultimately it ended up being me and this one girl. That's you. As long as we are still on the bus its like we are still at camp. Once we reach the pickup point where our parents would be waiting for us camp will be over.
Could something designed to make life easier end up ruining everything we have worked to preserve? Technology can sometimes be quite controversial. In my major, I have found that it can be almost more of a frustration than a blessing. In most industries, technological advancements are viewed as a positive step towards efficiency and economic growth. This is not always the case, however. In the camping industry, for example, the constant “improvements” are often a source of frustration to many die-hard campers.
Camping is a fun experience whether it be with your family, friends, or by yourself. However, it all depends on what you’re camping in that makes your experience worthwhile. Camping in a camper or motorhome is more convenient and efficient than camping in a tent. In my own camping experience, I feel that having a camper is much more enjoyable than a tent. When camping in a camper you’re able to experience the outdoors with the luxury of feeling at home.
I awoke to the sun piercing through the screen of my tent while stretching my arms out wide to nudge my friend Alicia to wake up. “Finally!” I said to Alicia, the countdown is over. As I unzip the screen door and we climb out of our tent, I’m embraced with the aroma of campfire burritos that Alicia’s mom Nancy was preparing for us on her humungous skillet. While we wait for our breakfast to be finished, me and Alicia, as we do every morning, head to the front convenient store for our morning french vanilla cappuccino. On our walk back to the campsite we always take a short stroll along the lake shore to admire the incandescent sun as it shines over the gleaming dark blue water. This has become a tradition that we do every

I was introduced to fishing by my father when I was only 4 years old,
Camping is a great way to escape the demands of everyday life. However, with that transition away from the technology, roadways, job demands and all that urban life has to offer to the peacefulness and isolation of the woods comes inaccessibility. While this is good for your sanity, it demands some forward thinking on your part to ensure a positive experience. On that note, the following are five of the most important camping gear essentials you need to have before leaving behind the general population for your camping destination. These go beyond the typical gear you think of like tents, cooking gear or sleeping bags.
