Backpacking Checklist

Backpacking Checklist - A backpacking checklist is usually about the "stuff." Good equipment is nice to have, but even with the best gear you can get into trouble in the wilderness. You might have matches and the latest fire starters, but still not be able to get that fire going. It takes more than good gear to assure a safe and enjoyable trip. Towards that end, then, this is a list of skills you should have or learn.  1. Navigation. Contrary to what many novices think, a compass doesn't tell you where you are. For that matter, a map doesn't either, if you don't know how to use it. Practice close to home if you can't yet use both of these easily. Do the same with your GPS unit.  2. Staying warm.

Eating fatty foods before sleeping can keep you warmer.  3. Pitching a tent. Pitch your tent o...

If you choose (or are forced to choose) to hang back and wait - you're playing a backgame, according to some earlier backgammon strategies.
