Beginner Camping Items

If you've never been to the outdoors before you're probably wondering what to take with you

. While everyone has different needs and interests in the outdoors the three items below are beginner camping items that are greatly needed by most.

A water purifier is very important before taking a drink in the outdoors. You need to stay hydrated, especially while hiking and doing other activities, but if you drink water straight from the creek/river/lake you are probably going to get sick. No one wants to get sick, especially out in the woods on your first camping trip. If you're going to be sticking near a campground that provides water that you trust is clean then you can skip this, but otherwise it's a good item to have around.

A camp stove is another essential. Unless you plan on eating peanut and butter jelly the whole time you want to be able to cook up some nice warm food. You can get packets of instant food that will be light to carry and make having a great meal a simple task. Again, if you're going to be sticking around a campground that offers a grill or something maybe you can get around this, but you probably still need to bring your own charcoal if that is the case.

Something you can't get around is your sleeping arrangements. You'll probably want a tent an inflatable air mattress. Some people will say that you're not roughing it unless you sleep on the ground, but if you sleep on the ground you're likely to wake up with a back ache and won't be able to enjoy your day of activities. A good nights rest is really essential to a great trip. These beds have improved a lot in recent years, you can get flocked tops, raised beds, or ones with speakers for your MP3 player--there are an infinite number of choices out there.
