Healthy Hiker Gear

Truthfully, I have never owned a headlamp, but decided to buy one for my next camping adventure.

I purchased the Apex LED Headlamps and was extremely glad to have them along on my trip.

Our vehicle broke down enroute to our camping destination, so it was well after dark when we finally arrived at our campsite. My friend and I decided to give those new camping LED headlamps a try.

Things went so much faster being able to use both of our hands to unpack and set up our tent. We had our tent up in no time, and dinner cooking on the camping stove.

What was nice was the fact that when you turned your head to check something, the light automatically pointed in the direction in which I was looking. For those who don’t want to wear these upon your head, you can always use them as flashlights for great camp lighting.

See for yourself how much light comes off these camping LED headlamps.

Are you like me and sometimes like to just get away by myself, without the phone, TV or the computers?

Sometimes I just like to grab my Camping and Hiking Gear, load it in the truck and hit the road. I drive sometimes for hours until I find a new spot to camp that I haven’t been before.

First I grab my Eureka solo tent, my Slumberjack Sleeping bag and sleeping gear, my cooking gear, camping knivcs, flashlights, compass, my water microfilters for clean water treatment, and lastly my backpack.

Just having the quiet time to myself, is so peaceful. I spend a few days, and come back to my job refreshed ready to take on the world. Give it a try and see if you don’t enjoy the one-on-one with Mother Nature.

The type of camping gear necessary depends on the type of trip you have planned.

The best place to start any trip is by making very clean detailed list for your Camping Gear.

We all know the importance of a quality camping tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping pads.

However, by making detailed lists you can make your camping trip as hassle-free as possible. It forces you to think about how will I cook my food? Do I need a tent footprint to protect the tent floor? What types of food will I be cooking, and what kind of cooking gear will I require? What is the best type of compass to take along? On this trip will I need a camp axe or just good quality camping knives?

It is very easy to overlook simple things like a First Aid kit, or a hammer to put in your tent stakes.

Camp lighting is a very important part of camping gear. Using flashlights, lanterns, headlamps, may just save your life in an emergency situation. So be prepared with extra batteries and/or fuel.

And since healthy drinking water is essential, make sure you take along adequate camp drinking water treatments, such as water purifiers, water filters, and purifer tablets to ensure your safe health with clean drinking water.

When putting yourself against Mother Nature, the key is to be PREPARED. And to be prepared means a great deal of time thinking and planning before you leave home.

Always be prepared for the worst!

Another key factor to keep in mind is having Outdoor Camping Gear that is rugged and reliable that you can stake your life on.

Pictured here is a Eureka 5th Season Expedition Tent.  It maintains its low and narrow profile for excellent performance in tight spots and windy conditions. Its super-strong exoskeleton frame with color coded poles, super-tough gated carabiners, and post & grommet assembly speed set up, even with gloved hands. A cold weather PU transparent vestibule window brightens the interior. 24-pocket organizer wall, 2 gear lofts and 1 flashlight loop aid storage. Conquer the elements.

Also, Outdoor Clothing can mean the difference between failure and success. Plan for all weather that you may encounter. And never forget your well stocked First Aid Kit.

Another important factor to keep in mind is knowing your intended route and area well. Outdoor Navigation is very important, so make sure you have a good compass, maps, and the knowledge to use them.

ALWAYS PRACTICE THE 5 P’S:
