Why do you love or hate camping?

[Huntandtrap09]

I love it because it is a good way to spend time alone or with friends and have a great time

[Beekeeper]

Great way to send time in the great outdoors.

[dwaynez]

Great way to spend time with family and friends. It is always and adventure and it is a great way to relax and do what we love to do.

I love just getting out in the woods and waking up to the fire.

My camping is in a wall tent deep in the wilderness not a trailor in a campground. That said what I love is the experience but what I hate is all the preparation and packing. We try to limit 180 pounds to each packhorse not including the packsaddle and pads. A saddle horse carrys much more than that for the average guy with his rifle, gear, saddle, pads, etc. I don't buy that "live weight" versus "dead weight" theory. Actually when we pack out a big bull elk the horse may have over 200 pounds of meat and horns on him. One bull elk = two pack horses.

It is a great way to get away from city life and away from work and everything. Nature is very peaceful and camping/being in nature is the best way to relax and have a good time.

I love it because it gives me a place to relax and get away from the hastles of everyday life. No school, no work, no cell phone, no homework; nothing but the sound of nature, the fire flickering, fresh caught bluegill sizzling on the skillet, pure heaven.

Raccoons in the gear; poison ivy toilet paper; black flies all day and skeeters in the evening; Whipoorwills singing their hearts out to their soul mates all night; leaky tent seams; roots and rocks under the sleeping bag; stuck sleeping bag zippers; heavy footsteps and breathing outside the tent; campfire smoke in the eyes and clothes; new friends offering you a beer and a burger; fresh air; warm sunny days; cool cozy nights; brilliant stars that fill the sky; a crackling roaring campfire; no traffic; cooking over a live flame; campfire coffee; the only news report being the day's hunting or fishing stories. I love it.
