Out of state hunt camping checklist
Posted on 10/12/21 at 7:02 am
Posted on 10/12/21 at 7:02 am
Going to be heading out of state for a week of hunting in December. I'll be tent camping at a WMA campground. I have the basics - tent, cot, sleeping bag, lantern, stove, thermapad, etc. I'm looking on some input on items that might be an afterthought but would make my life easier if I bring them.
TIA
ETA: Driving to northern Missouri.

Does out of state mean Florida or Alaska? Might change some answers
Edit: and flying or driving?

Scrap the cot for a twin size air mattress
Buddy heater if your tent is big enough ("Mr. Heater brand Buddy heaters and similar heaters that use a catalyst do not produce carbon monoxide and are safe for indoor use but still need a window cracked for a fresh air supply.")
Black Rifle Instant Coffee is very good for camping
Ground Tarp
Tailgate tent for your cooking area. Table

Man I ditched the cot a few years ago and the air mattress last year and cut up my 3” mattress topper to use instead. Like sleeping on a cloud and way easier to pack and deal with in the field. No need to inflate

This is a recipe for cold nights in December. You need something to insulate you from the ground. The new(ish) generation of 3"-4" thick backpacking (or larger) style matts that are insulated are both warm and comfortable. Put a closed cell foam matt underneath that one if it is really cold.

Gal water jug with a cup or so poured out and replaced with dish soap

I usually travel with all of this all the time. Have been the savior of multiple peoples camping trips

Not sure what you plan for meals, but plan extra. I eat like a Neanderthal when I'm camping and burning calories.

I go all out on food. IDK how some guys do it on mountain house or bologna sandwiches. I've been freezing a lot of food for this trip.
