Reps: 12,462 (power: 19) | | | We have just moved up. We started with tents, but I didn't like when it got so hot had to lay there almost naked to stay cool. lol So got a pop-up. I really love my pop-up but got out voted by the family, yeah we needed something bigger really, so now have a 1986 RV. Looking forward to our first trip. Gotta finish making a few modifications per my hubby. |

Neither of us drives at the moment so it's hard to get to places to use it...I'm learning to drive now though so we'll be able to camp more soon. |

I love camping
I use a two-man tent. It's small but ultra light and compact for a backpack. If you ask me, that's the way to do it if you really want an adventure.

Reps: 55 (power: 0) | | | As a kid, I won a ponderosa 13man tent which worked great. My parents then upgraded to a popup... which was cool I guess, we still had the tent. Camping is a great experience though. Now, I only have a little two man tent thats backable and light. Ropes, gear is too much weight as it is... |

Reps: 10 (power: 0) | | | I voted tent, although I don't mind sleeping outside if I have to. And for the record, sleeping in an RV is not "camping". I have nothing against RV's as long as they're not totally obnoxious, but having those luxuries just kind of robs you of the total experience of nature. But that's just me. |

Reps: 34 (power: 0) | | | Mostly tent. I have gone a few times with just a sleeping bag and my backpack too, and several friends with the same.. That was pretty fun. |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
