The All Important Camping Check List

February 27, 2008

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

A camping check list may not be the most important item you need for your camping trip, but having one could make a huge difference in how successful your camping trip is.

Having a good check list helps you keep things more organized and makes sure that you don’t leave anything behind. Just forgetting something as simple as a can opener can be very frustrating. And if you end up forgetting your pillow, sleeping on a rolled up jacket can make for a very miserable night.

I have found two camping check lists that are very handy and are free for you to use. The first is a
Camping Check List that you just print out and mark things off as you go along.

The second one is an Online Camping Check List that you just place a check mark next to the items you want to bring and then print out the list and use it to make sure you have everything you need for your camping trip.

So make sure that you always use a camping check list to make your next camping trip a great one.

Happy Camping :-)

The Jetboil Personal Cooking System

February 26, 2008

The JetBoil personal cooking system is a small compact all in one cooking stove that is perfect for campers, backpackers and hunters alike. It’s small compact size allows you to easily store it in your backpack, carry bag or even in your glove box.

The JetBoil cooking system has many uses. I personally use it during hunting season when we are out in the field all day for cooking up a nice cup of hot soup.

A good friend of mine has a slightly different use for his JetBoil stove as he will spend an entire day hiking to the top of a mountain just to spend the night and ski back down the next day in about 20 minuets.

He says that it’s perfect for melting snow for cooking and drinking water. He even uses it as a heater to stay warm.

Some of the benefits of the JetBoil cooking system are:

  • Fuel canister lasts longer due to the all new FluxRing® heat exchanger
  • No need to worry about cooking during windy conditions as the burner is housed in a wind-screen
  • The Neoprene cozy allows you to hold onto the cooking canister while you are cooking
  • The JetBoil will light in any conditions with the easy to use Piezo igniter
  • Easy and fast clean up
  • There is no need for pre assembly or priming
  • The perfect stove when space is a premium

The JetBoil components all fit into It’s cooking container for easy storage.

You can pick up your very own JetBoil Cooking System At REI.com

Happy Camping :-)
