Tree-Top Camping











                           

    If you think of camping in a tent as uncomfortable, or boring then I know just what you need: A tree tent. Yes I said, Tree Tent. Instead of sleeping on the forest floor, being prey to bears and whatever the forest holds, try sleeping suspended in a tent ten to fifty feet in the air. The higher you go the more breathtaking the view, and the the more magical the experience will be. Tree tents have been increasingly popular over the past few years, but today the number of tree camping enthusiasts is astonishing. With a quick Google or Youtube search I found multiple tree tent companies, adventure planners, professional tree climbing classes, and a plethora of channels on YouTube dedicated to this very topic.

Tree camping is definitely going to be something I experience in the future, first thing is learning how to safely, and comfortably climb trees, after that I can go as high as the canopy (and nerves) will let me go! I challenge everyone to push yourself and try this out on your next big adventure!!

My Essential Outdoor Items

When it comes to hiking, and camping I want to be as comfortable as possible, without carrying too much weight and unnecessary items. I learned the hard way on my first overnight hiking trip to Jones Gap state park how difficult it can be to hike 3+ miles with the wrong gear, and too much stuff! That is why I have decided to show you the items I currently use that maximize make my primitive camping adventures! Start with a good shelter I had no idea what I was doing when I set up my first tent, granted I wasn't alone and had my boyfriend to help; I am now the primary one to set up and take down our tent between sites. I bought my three person tent at Wal-Mart for under 30 dollars, and it is super easy to set up and is very spacious, comfortable, and light weight! This tent is simple, but also has comfort features as well; good ventilation with the removal rain cover, inside pockets to put devices or other items important to you. You don't have to fumble through you...
