A recycling plastic bag us

On camp we mix the cooking ingredients in a plastic bag as we try to not take excess baggage and weight.

Light weight tents to be pitched

In many ways light weight tents care and useage is the same as using any other shelter area. The safety rules are the same. Essentailly do not endanger yourself, others or the environment.  Common sense is not enough though.  Leaning the basics is nore than putting up a tent.  There are things to do while lookiing out for other things. Then there is practice, more practice and a dash of old wisdom along with common sense is close to the mix that is needed.
