Your Camping Questions
Do I have to hike out into the woods in order to camp?
This is a topic of controversy among camping enthusiasts. You do not have to traipse out into the woods for miles while carrying everything you need. Some people enjoy going to a camping area and still having necessities. The one thing that all camping enthusiasts agree on is that a three star hotel is not the idea of camping. It is perfectly okay to pitch a tent at a camping ground that provides showers. Sometimes those small comforts of home can make for an enjoyable outing with the family. But that is entirely up to you on how much you want to “rough” it.
At what age can I take my children camping?
That depends on the weather and what type of activities you will want to do while you are out in the wilderness. Small infants do not need to be taken outdoors during inclement weather. You will need to plan out your vacation with children in mind. What activities will be enjoyed by the entire family? Are there things that will keep them busy while you are camping and relaxing? Just remember that children have short attention spans and not as much stamina as you do so take that into account before you start off on a five mile hike through the woods.
What about showers?
You are in luck. You do not have to remain dirty and sweaty if you utilize some campgrounds. Many of the newer family oriented campgrounds do have shower facilities you can use while you are camping. The cost is factored into your camp ground fees. You will need to provide your own towels, soap and shampoo if you intend on showering. Just because you are camping does not mean you have to completely rough it and be stinky.
