I love camping...

10. Read or play games.

Did I mention Relax... I love it whether I go with people or alone.
No internet... spotty cell service...

Go for swims , hikeing , etc . and least amount of technology possible.

Thanks Sitka. I have not camped since I was a kid. I have never been camping with a man and just wonder what that is like. I've slept in tents in sleeping bag with my family. I don't know if most people think camping is in a trailer.

I know one of my favorite things when camping, is having having a campfire going and sitting around it.

A lot of men say they like to go camping. Well what do you do?

Ahhhh.....the joys of camping..... I love to stay in tents or cabins, depending upon the weather. I love fires and cooking out, drinking beers (can't even remember the last time I had a beer though), roasting marshmallows and hotdogs on sticks, swimming, boating and canoeing on the rivers or lakes, going through trails, seeing the wildlife, all the stars not drowned out by city lights, etc. etc. I love communing with nature, it's so tranquil. :)

some of the best fam memory's i have are from camping and stuff : )
cram all that is coming both people and stuff

my fathers fav place was a camp ground in the middle of no where

well as in the middle of no where with running water , showers and rest rooms ,country like store , canoe's ,Kayaks, swimming whole and crystal lake (no idea the name was a sink whole full of crystal clear water),and fishing oh cant leave out the rope swing : )

would go out for a week

morning breakfast for some reason taste's better lol
after a hard night was watching the stars in the sky and a camp fire

had a few of those trips where you just go out , with what ever you can carry and then come back when you decide
those can be fun as well

I know this sounds kooky, but I love setting up camp. Setting up were the fire will be. The table were the fellowship will be. The lab and shower. Food prep and storage. It's very Fung Shue with me. The rest is icing on the cake!

Camping = Nearest Hilton Hotel...

I used to love camping. It was fun to be away and relax. Talk with friends, enjoy the crackle of the fire. But over the years it became a chore to get everything packed, unpacked, setup, cleaned, put away... lost the relaxing part. Doesn't help that I have back problems and sleeping was a major issue. Thus, the hotel preference...

Guess I turned into a curmudgeon on camping.

But it can be very enjoyable. Now days, I would only do a trailer.

Idaho does have some beautiful locations to camp so if you have a chance, go try it and see for yourself.

I'm on the desert southwest. I've got to finish this assignment first!

I will pass on the scorpion concern... thanks.

I just chill out and get back to the basics and enjoy nature. Fishing, hiking, bbqing,and of course the campfire..No place I would rather be..

I camp quite a bit. So, this is a good question for me. I typically go out for a month at a time without need for supplies of any kind. I bring my own food, water, gas, propane, etc, etc, etc.

First, I enjoy being by myself. It's quiet and peaceful. I love listening to the wind through the pine trees. I never tell anybody where or when I'm going. I return when it happens.

Second, I hike, fish, rock climb, swim, wade, look at Petroglyphs and Pictographs, check out ghost towns, check out old indian ruins, and take lots of pictures.

Third, I drive. I like to take remote 4X4 paths, sometimes not wide enough for my vehicle. It has become horribly scratched. I usually get stuck but I have always been able to get myself out. Once I was stuck at 10K+ feet for 2.5 weeks in deep snow. It took that long to get 1.5 miles due to digging out every 20 - 30' or so.

Fourth, I enjoy watching wildlife. It is fun to track animals and sneak up as close as possible to see how they react. It is surprising how many animals have poor eye site. If you approach from down wind you can usually get very close.

Fifth, I typically get injured as I like to do stupid stuff. It's fun at the time but I pay for it later. I had to give up my dirt bike because I was just too irresponsible with it.
