The Path Camping reflects on the basics to help new campers get started in the great practice of camping. The book discusses historical figures, contemplates good habits and practices while camping, especially regarding self-reliance. We address why having a training space is the single best way to get critical, regular practice to fortify the foundation from which our camp experience grows. Well-planned practice in a dedicated space helps us develop good habits that make setting and breaking camp simple and efficient.

The Path Camping examines the basics. It advises the camper toward the purchase of good used gear first, rather than the newest equipment. This is especially true for the camp cook, as they often serve as the camp host and have more gear considerations than the typical individual camper. The book guides campers in the necessities and comforts that make camping more enjoyable.

The Path Camping also helps new campers understand how to camp with our ultimate resource, the environment, as a top priority. New campers will not have all the answers, but in time, a new camper can become a proficient camper.

Our goal is for us all to be better campers, and that can be achieved through simple practice. We hope new campers will listen to our book and take the crucial first step to start a camp practice. We hope you will enjoy The Path Camping and take some time outdoors!
