camping
✔ home sweet home Key elements to look for when choos-
ing a campsite are a safe landing, shelter from the wind and hazard-free cooking and sleeping areas. Access to fresh water is preferable in marine environments. Similarly, be aware of the high water mark and tidal cycle when camping in tidal areas. Not only can tidal variances flood your campsite, they can also make launching and landing difficult.
✔ under the big top A spacious, well-pitched tarp makes
the difference between an enjoyable wet-weather camping experience and a miserable one. Choose a good-quality tarp made of nylon, add six to eight accessory cord ropes and release your engineering spirit. Paddle-supported pyramid shapes seem to be the best all-around set up, but it’s also fun to experiment with A-frame and lean-to designs.
✔ the camp kitchen Avoid sand when choosing a kitchen
area, and keep sleeping and cooking quarters well separated to minimize the likelihood of intimate encounters with wildlife. You learned the three steadfast rules of camp kitchen etiquette in preschool: wash your hands before handling food, clean up your mess and don’t take seconds before everyone else has had firsts.
✔ minimize impacts It’s simple: Pack out what you pack in,
avoid making campfires (or at least keep them small) and dispose of human waste appropriately. Visit
lnt.org for more information.
✔ put the boats to bed Do a campsite circle check before
nightfall. Are all kayaks and paddles well secured? Is your food safely cached from four-legged scavengers? (Best practices vary from location to location.) Are main thoroughfares free of tripping hazards?
