Well, I've had quite a bit of experience, so if you want to ask a few questions about specifics, I can do my best to answer them.

Realize that your phone is better in the car, than any bag. Stuff gets thrown around, and losing that is the last thing you want.

On the other side, always make sure that your camp fire is 100% out, don't leave any smolders. Keep your camp clean, and keep all food sealed. Your current location isn't known, but a surprise visit from a bear would be bad. Bug spray is lovely, and have a great time!

I have camped in my childhood days.The boy scout master took all of my class scouts to a camp.It was just a 1 and a half day camp and as a child i missed my mother and father.Child means when i was in my 6th grade.It was great to be with my friends fool around and enjoy.There was a forest in the left side of our camp.My friends persuaded me to explore the forest with them.We all went inside the forest at night.We didn't face any dangers but we saw a bear.We all ran away! That is one memorable exciting camp.Oh did i forget to mention,we also had a camp fire performance in the night.We went to the forest after the performance in midnight.

Well I have been camping since I was... 8... Ish... Every year I would go camping, once a year for two weeks and other times would just be weekend affairs. It's been said before but if you do have any questions just ask. Main thing is too keep everything dry. A wet sleeping bag is the worst thing to wake up too.

Whoo! Camping. Totally the chillest thing ever!

Too late for advice? Yes. Too late for a story? NEVER! (But I don't have any.)

My last camping few years ago with old friend from Senior High not so exciting, but I get the experience. I see the sunrise from the peak of Mount Ciremai, West Java.
