Heck, even folks on Reddit are already talking about it. Albeit, it’s camping horror stories, after Redditor r/Liversojunmy asked the campers of Reddit, what’s the most disturbing thing you have seen while camping? But hey, consider this a bootcamp, both for your physical prep as well as your mental one.

The thread got a modest amount of attention, racking up just a few hundred shy of 2,000 upvotes, but the audience was engaged leading to nearly 1,000 comments.

But, a little bit of planning and prep can go a long way to keeping you sane during camping: pitch your tent during daytime, get familiar with your surroundings, try to drown out the noise (e.g. camp near water), plomp your tent against something so you’re not exposed, or simply bring more friends (animal companions included).

First, you gotta figure out your camping equipment. It goes without saying that sleeping bags, tents, flash lights, wet wipes, first aid kits and the like are a must. It also helps to have a camping stove, though some prefer going old-fashioned and setting up a fire using the wood they find on site.

Whatever the case, always keep several things in mind, with the first one being water sources. While having a bit of a reserve is good, carrying enough water for the entire camping trip is not practical. So, setting up next to water and sourcing from there (boiling it too) is definitely a good solution.

Also, there’s this thing called altitude sickness—experiencing discomfort while camping each night in altitudes that differ drastically from each pitch—which happens with higher altitude locations above 8,000 feet. In that case, try to keep your elevation progression at around 1,000 feet between nights.
