Camping Supplies

Camping supplies can be economical or expensive, it all depends on you desire, and budget. We can say this, camping supplies, especially if you are weekend campers like we are don’t have to be top of the line cast iron. Camping supplies generally consist of cooking pots and pans, a pot for coffee or tea, utensils to cook with, eating plates, and utensils, and cups or mugs. We try to keep our cooking supplies to a minimum due to space constraints in the car.

If you have the space and you want to indulge yourself in a full scale camp kitchen feel free, but for those of us who camp out of our car. minimum is easier, and take sup less space. Camp cooking supplies can be purchased at outfitter stores, but we find local thrift stores to be a great place to find camp cooking pots and pans.

Some other supplies you might need consist of something to sleep on- do not think sleeping on the hard cold ground is beneficial to your health, or relaxation on a weekend trip. Its hard to have a good time when you wake up sore and achy.

Invest in a camp mattress or at the very least a thick sleeping bag. Yes they can be pricey. We have found a foam topper in a waterproof mattress cover makes for a dry, and very comfortable bed, just add sheets and a blanket. More about sleeping arrangements in the next post.
