                    Are you nervous being dependant on ground water for a drinking water supply during long camping and hiking trips? It’s a concern, isn’t it? It means that you have to purify the water before drinking it or using it in cooking. There used to be a time when you either had to boil the water for a long time to be able to use it or dissolve chemicals tablets in it but neither of these methods is very safe unless you know exactly what you are doing. Well, consider that worry ...

Gourmet Backpack Kitchen

Posted by Vicki on Sunday, December 21, 2008, In : Appalachian Outdoors 
New item #6 – a cool backpack kitchen. Preparing for this backpacking camping adventure is proving to be quite an adventure in itself! My usual hiking camping gear for the outback kitchen doesn’t really serve us for this trip. It’s just too much to carry. Thank goodness I found this little backpack kitchen! Everything folds up nice and small and is super light. It even has a waterproof salt and pepper shaker designed especially for outdoor use. Yay!! No more sticky salt! They even made ...
