From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Camping is an outdoor recreational activity. The participants (known as campers) leave urban areas, their home region, or civilization and enjoy nature while spending one or several nights outdoors, usually at a campsite. Camping may involve the use of a tent, caravan, cabin, a primitive structure, or no shelter at all. Camping as a recreational activity became popular in the early 20th century. Campers frequent national parks, other publicly owned natural areas, and privately owned campgrounds. Camping is a key part of the program of many youth organizations around the world, such as Scouting. It is used to teach self-reliance and team work. Camping is also used as a cheap form of accommodation for people attending large open air events such as sporting meetings and music festivals. Organizers often provide a field and other basic amenities. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License What camping mattress do you recommend for somebody with a sore back? Q. I'm not talking about RV camping here. I have a ThermaRest and every morning I wake up sore in my lower back. Is there something else out there that is light and packable?

How thick is your ThermaRest? I use a RidgeRest on bottom, then a 25 inch wide, 2 inch thick ThermaRest, then a 25 inch wide and a 2.5 inch thick ThermaRest on top of that. I sleep very good and the mattresses stay in place. You realize that you need to sleep "in" the ThermaRest, not "on". Lay down on your fully inflated setup and let air out until it is comfortable. My 2.5 inch mattress is lighter than the 2 inch. The 2 inch is the Camp Rest which is supposed to be the warmest mattress they make. When backpacking I carry the 2.5 inch mattress and the RidgeRest. I have carried two RidgeRest pads and one 1.5 inch ThermaRest and… [cont.] Answered by Blue Moon - Sun Jun 28 21:45:27 2009 Would you recommend sleeping in a camping hammock as a normal bed? Q. I'm about 5'5, 140 pounds if that helps. But I was just wondering if it would be comfortable enough, and not bad on your back. I was planning on getting a camping hammock, not the kind you see on the beach, and putting it on a hammock stand in my room. Thanks. Asked by Y!

For some people it works and they find it extremely comfortable, others don't like them at all. One manufacturer of camping hammocks (also my personal favorite brand of hammocks) has a bunch of testimonials on their website from people who have severe back problems and get great enjoyment and comfort out of their hammocks. This is anecdotal evidence at best, but maybe it'll help you decide. Answered by Garret - Mon Aug 16 15:59:16 2010 What is the best website to buy camping gear?
