  • Practice pitching your tent at home before you head to the campsite -Keep in mind: practice makes perfect.
  • When you come looking for a place to set up, avoid the bottom of hills or valleys but always look for a ìnatural bedî of soft, flat soil and clear the gravel and stones from the ground before pitching the tent .
  • always set up a tarp below your tent to avoid potential damage or water-logging
  • Whether it's winter, summer, fall spring, dress in (or at least carry) layers. for controling your body temperature - Itís the easiest and most effective way.
  • Learn how to use a GPS or map and compass, No matter how well you know a certain wooded area, getting lost among acres of similar-looking trees is very easy
