Camp Out

Like many enthusiastic Canadian’s we are trying to get one good camping trip in this summer. An entire weekend of campfires, beautiful scenery and exploring new territory.  I’ve pulled together some of my favourite things to do and all this reminiscing is getting me really excited to leave tonight!

Relaxation! Reading a good book and a glass of wine! Image from here

Maybe not tradition but I’ve bought an Ipad and have started uploading magazines, books and movies… Who says you can bring technology to the woods?

I’ve been looking at campfire recipes and items that are easy to bring along and make, we usually start a day of hiking with granola, mixed berries and yogurt or milk- depending if you have cold storage at your disposal.

Of course you have to pack the quintessential campfire dessert Smore Makings! Try a dark chocolate or Fruit and Nut Bar to mix things up.

Our accommodations will not look so chic and neither will I! Image from here

And I doubt I will be wearing these traipsing through the forest but a girl can dream!
