Top 10 Backpacking Tips 3 —3 (Stay Hydrated)

While paddling a canoe or Kayak, have you ever thought to yourself, there’s plenty of water to drink, right? Do you get thirsty in a hurry when hiking or exercising? This brings us to Tip #3.

Tip #3 – Stay Hydrated.

You have probably heard from others that if you find yourself thirsty, you are already dehydrated so do not get to that point. Fill your water bottles or bladders every chance you get so you are hydrated during those long trails. This backpacking tip is the most important tip to remember because staying hydrated is more important than remembering to feed your belly. Also, do not drink water directly from a lake, stream or river no matter how clean it looks. camping tents

I used to swim in the many lake and have accidentally swallowed water many times without getting sick so why can’t I drink it? family camping tents

It’s because there is a risk that the water contains giardia, a parasite that causes severe diarrhea requiring medical treatment. The decision is yours but I highly recommend you follow my recommendation and the Forest Service recommendation which is to filter, boil or chemically treat water before drinking.pop up canopy

A good alternative is to get a Hydration backpacking pack. Simply put some water in your backpacks and drink from the tube that extends outside of the backpacking pack This will help you stay hydrated and prevent the temptation to drink directly from the water in the lakes, streams and rivers.

I grew up in a large family and we are often to go camping. In the past, we’d always go camping in my grandpa’s old green camping tents. It was so heavy and a little tiny for us. Family camping tents are much different these days. There are so many kinds of family camping tents in the market. They are bigger, lighter and just as waterproof. They have more windows, screens and compartments for storing things. Let’s take the 8 Man 4 Rooms Family Dome Camping Tent as an example.

This Peaktop 4 rooms dome camping tent can accommodate 8-10 people, which is perfect for family or group camping. This 8 – 10 man tent has the following features:

Upgraded fully sewn in tent floor provides a completed protection from rain-drops and insects.

All openings are fitted with mosquito netting and screens.

The First Family Camping Adventure with Camping Tents

We’ve been camping before, our annual camp trip involves cabins (that we call cottages) and running water and air conditioners. I am not a stranger to camping in a tent, mind you but it is several years before when I am a student, and the trip is with my classmates, now, I am married now and have two babies, we planned our first family tent camping.

Camping is a great choose for a family, boys were excited, they dig some roasted marshmallows, in fact, they were most impressed with the fact that Fire Dad can not only put out a fire, but he can also start a fire. in the night, they were amazed by things like lightning bugs, stars and the dark! Who knew it was so easy to amuse children on a camping trip! We should have been doing this from the get-go, I am so happy. for the camping camping tents, I chose 6 man 3 Rooms Family Camping Tent.

Look at the details of the tent, the removable dividers help create three distinct room for keeping privacy and it can sleeps up to 6 people, so we can have our own privacy space, and we even can use a room as the living room for games, it is so wonderful. Then the center height of the tent is 6.9ft and is tall enough for an adult to stand up inside, and I was not worry about his height to live in the tent, it is wonderful, isn’t it? To the ventilation, the tent has two windows to ensure the good atmosphere, and the design can make us in a good mood. When you’re camping, there always are many insects like mosquito, the door of our tents is zipper with mosquito net, and it can prevent the insect effectively and provides us a bug free-living condition. But the key feature of the tent is the fabric, it uses the fully sewn groundsheet, water-resistant fabric and waterproof floors are guaranteed to keep us dry if it rains. Shock-corded fiberglass poles for easy setup, you can settle down easily, and it fixed by ring-pin system, no sharp edges

The journey is wonderful, and we are all happy, thanks!
