what are the essential itmes for backpacking?
Im only 14 but I wasnted to do backpacking when im older, Such as doing the kokoda trail, or just backpacking in general, what are some of the essentials.
This is the list im thinking about:
. A backpack with lots of compartments and a good amount of storage space.
. Camelbak, I could put it in my backpack
.A belt with pockets to put snacks, knifes, simple things like flint and tinder etc.
.Tent, Im not sure how you would carry this.
. Good pair of boots
. Some good rough backpacking, cloths
. A metal rod of some sort to help you walk
. First aid kit
I cant think of anything els, what do you guys think and what type of food would you bring, I can only think of army rations
You got a real sense for adventure huh kid? You should ask your dad or mom, i’m sure they would be happy to help you plan it out. They might even be willing to take you out for a hike! What i always take, is my backpack of course, with the essentials, food and water. For food i always like to take a big bag of jerky along with me. It lasts forever and i love the taste. For a tent i usually take a tarp, and just throw it over a branch, and use rocks to hold it down. Well i hope you get to go one your hike someday. Good luck!
