If you are camping in tents, make sure that you have enough room for everyone on the trip.
If you are camping in an RV, camper, or tent, thoroughly clean the shelter to prepare it for your trip.
Keep your coolers, boxes of non-perishables, dishes, and eating utensils in the shelter.
Pack light layers as well. Hooded sweatshirts, jackets, jogging pants, and thermal tees will be useful for colder evenings or early mornings.
Plan your daily menu ahead of time to save yourself the possibly long trip to the nearest grocery or convenience store.
Pack soap, shampoo, towels and wash rags for bathing. If you are unsure about the available facilities, bring baby wipes.
Pack a book that you’ve meant to read. When you aren’t out exploring the area, you will have some downtime at the campsite, and it makes for a perfect time to read your book.
