20.01.2022 #Reason5 - Campfires A camping trip is not a camping trip without a campfire, but this is even more important during the colder months. Consider buying a fire starter it works even in the wet and cold (nothing wrong with having some extra help). Oh, extra tip make sure you have enough (dry) wood before you try to start the fire. It’ll pay off in the long run. #4x4SHOW #camping #camplife #tentcamping #campfire #campingfun #campinggear #campingtips

01.01.2022 Tip #1 Size Sites will vary in size, and you need to think about the room you need based on the gear you are travelling with. Some of the things you should consider are: How many tents do you need to fit into the one site, the space you will need for your table and chairs & other camping gear like a camp kitchen. If you have a camper trailer think if it will be able to be fully opened without obstructing others. #4X4SHOW #campinglife #camper #caravan #caravanning #caravanlife #vanlife #campsite #outdoorlovers #campingear #campervan
