Preparing for Inclement Weather on Your Tent Camping Trip

Preparing for Inclement Weather on Your Tent Camping Trip

Mother Nature is glorious, yet unpredictable. The weather could turn on you in a second when you are exploring our vast earth. You might be packing for a tent camping trip in the warm sunshine only to greet a rain storm when you arrive to your destination. Don't let inclement weather ruin your camping trip.

The best ways to prepare for bad weather when taking a camping trip include preparing weather friendly food, storage, coverage and weatherproof guides. You also want to have a backup camping site in case of mud and/or flood. If you have the family along, you will want to bring tent friendly activities such as board games, cards and books. If the weather turns really bad, make sure you stay at a campground with trailer or cabin rentals available.

Packing food and water for any type of weather conditions is important. If there were an extreme fire danger in a camping area, the forestry service will not allow campfires which could limit your options for dinner in some areas. If there is rain in the forecast, the campfire, again, might not be an option. You will need to bring a cooler to keep your perishables cold. You might consider bringing granola bars, sandwich stuffing and bread, beef jerky, cheese and crackers and trail mix. Keep everything properly stored in containers, coolers and baggies. Prepare for proper coverage by bringing along extra tarps and ties, weatherproof maps and a compass or GPS navigation system. Also, try to locate tent campgrounds which will be located away from flood zones and will have a ranger nearby for safety.

There are alternatives to tent camping that might help alleviate the problems of inclement weather. Camping in cabins may seem a luxury when hitting the great outdoors but in bad weather conditions it can save your vacation. You can breathe easier knowing you will have a stove to cook food, a refrigerator to keep your food cool, a warm bed to sleep comfortably in and shelter from any storms. Cabin rentals are plentiful and can save your family camping trip.

Another alternative to tent campgrounds is RV rentals. Most RV campsites have water, electric and sewer hookups to make family camping a little more comfortable. With pull outs and pop ups, RV's take camping to a new level. They make it easier to find one campsite and then move along to the next without having to pack up all your gear and reset it at the next destination.

All types of campsites tent campgrounds, cabin rentals and RV camping have their advantages. Talk with your family to decide which camping ground is best for you.

And remember it's all about the destination
