camping

There are many different ways to go camping and all are fun. It depends on the type of person and how much they enjoy the outdoors. For examples some take moterhomes or campers, I like to call those the buzz kills. Others bring tents or at least a bed roll, I refer to them as the game changers. lastly the point of camping that I enjoyed the most is going with nothing but, the things you need some food, fresh water, chew and some way to make fire. I will never take a moterhome or camper, I mostly take a tent or sleep under the stars but the most fun I had was a canoe trip that I took with my dad and little brother.

The canoe trip that i took was two weeks in a circuit of lakes called Bowron up in Canada. We didn"t take muck we each had a backpack with a little food and tablets to snitize the water so we could drinck it. Most of the trip was was fun and we caught a lot of fish but, the turning point of that trip was when my dad tiped the canoe over into 50 degree water. He had a huge fish on his line and when he tryed to get it on the boat he stood up and fell into the water. looking back on it the thing that I would change is telling him not to get back in the boat because when he did that it put my little brother and
I into the water with him... I do enjoy that type of camping the most but, it can wear you out fast.

I believe camping is a moment of survival. food, water, and shelter, while essential would be best forgotten in order to practice the discipline of nature. Feeding and living off the land in order to hone your survival skills.

I won't ever camp using a motor home, either. What makes a tent a "game changer," though?
