It is a summer tradition for many of us to pack up and head for a campground. When you get there you back into your site and plug into electricity. To each their own, but in my opinion this seems to defeat the whole purpose.

If you want to feel true exhilaration of camping and see some of the many wonders nature has to offer, I suggest you try camping in the rough. It is a good idea to be familiar with the area to avoid potentially getting lost, and always let someone know your destination and expected time of return.

I enjoy a route along a waterway where a canoe or kayak can be used. Extra supplies can be stored in the camper to make for a pretty good time. A few basic essentials is all you need for a weekend of relaxation and solitude. My suggestion would be a small pup tent, a tarp in case of rain, or on a mild summer night you can make due with only a sleeping bag.

As a rule I always bring along my fishing pole, trout do make a great add on for a meal. Make sure you have a frying pan and a pot to boil water. It’s easy to prepare a lot of foods brought from home over a campfire. I know that camping this way is not for everyone! Camping in the rough entails a person take only what is needed for a two- or three-day journey. The only piece of modern day equipment worth taking would be a camera.

Camping in the rough may not seem like something you may want to do, but if it seems like it is, give it a try. You will have no traffic jams or other motorists, no noise. This may be the first of many trips of camping in the rough for you.
