An enjoyable camping trip involves careful planning and the proper
equipment. Even in well-provisioned campgrounds, like those found in
many national parks, there is plenty of unpredictability. To ensure that
unexpected happenings add to your enjoyment rather than detract from it,
it's helpful to have an easy-to-use reference. Included in this
comprehensive resource are basics like a reversible packing checklist,
tips for choosing a campsite and setting up a safe camp, notes on tying
knots, fire-starting how-to, and classic camp recipes. To help you dig
even deeper, there are also overviews of potentially dangerous animals
and plants, as well as wilderness first aid. To cap it all off, there's
a guide to navigating prominent constellations in the night sky.
