In order to facilitate access, the incubator containing the food ingredients can also be placed in this area, and a folding bucket or water bag can be used to fetch water from a clean water source.

Note that the outdoor kitchen area should be far away from the sky and placed downwind; it is absolutely forbidden to use open flames in or near the tent; and when using open flames, there is a bucket of water or sand next to the cooking utensils, and the fire can be extinguished at any time.

Have you learned these camping knowledge? May you and your family have a wonderful spring camping time.

Clean up the ground .

After choosing a place to build the tent, first clean up the ground and remove all stones, wood, and tree roots. If there are protruding sharp woods or raised stones on the ground and you cannot move them, you must not leave them alone. This will not only damage the tent, but it will definitely be uncomfortable to live in. If the campsite is full of stones and no other campsite can be found, you can spread stones of the same size into a flat surface, fill the gaps with smaller stones, and finally spread a layer of leaves or sand on the stones. There is also a question that is often overlooked by campers: Are there caves for various animals on the ground. Rats and snakes all have underground caves. It is definitely unsafe to build tents in these caves. Even small ant nests can cause damage to tents.

Spread the tent on the cleaned ground.

Spread the tent in the tent (press stones and wood on a windy day), put the connected tent poles into all the cloth covers (loops), and put the tent first Fix the pole on the foot of one side of the inner tent (the foot can be inserted into the tent pole), then raise the tent pole up, the inner tent is also propped up, and then the other end of the tent pole Fix it on the foot on the other side. After the inner tent is supported, cover the outer tent, fasten it with a cable, and finally check the distance between the inner and outer tents. Do not stick them together. This will affect the warmth and rainproof effect. Many tents are equipped with awnings (door awnings) at the openings. Don’t forget to support them as well to prevent rainwater from entering through the openings and to put things under the tents. A tent with a skirt should be well pressed with sand and soil, and snow pressure can be used in the snow to increase the windproof effect.

How to fix the tent .

Some tents are designed with metal rings under the four feet (or six feet), which can be fixed on the ground with ground nails. If the ground is hard, you can find a stone to nail the ground nails. Some tents do not have foot loops, but only pull cords. The ground nails are used to fix the pull cords. Sometimes, the ground nails cannot be firmly nailed to the ground (stone ground). You can find a few heavier stones to tie the pull cords. On the rock, move the rock to make the tension line tight and ensure that the tension between the tension lines is even. For camping in the woods, you can also tie the tent cable to the tree, and try to tie the cable to the base of the tree to prevent the wind from damaging the tent.

Arrangement of the tent .

The door of the tent should be located on the side of shelter from the wind, even in summer. If the camp has a certain slope, the tent door should be located downhill as much as possible. If there are multiple tents camping together at the same time, do not line up the tents in order to neatly line up, which is not conducive to taking care of each other at night, especially the tents at both ends are more lonely. They can be arranged in a horseshoe shape or staggered. Arrange in two rows and keep a certain distance from the campfire. There should be a certain amount of space between the tents to avoid excessive concentration of the water rolling down from the tents to cause water on the ground.

Drainage and insect control.

In the rainy weather, a circle of drainage ditches should be dug around the tent, and the drainage outlet should be arranged at a low point. The drainage ditch should be close to the outer edge of the tent to facilitate the timely drainage of rainwater from the tent. The drainage ditch does not need to be too deep, 20 cm is enough. The soil excavated from the drainage ditch can be placed on the edge of the ditch near the side of the tent, and a small dam can be stacked. For tents with skirts, soil can be pressed against the skirts and lead the skirts into the ditch. As long as the tent is propped up, the screen windows (doors) must be closed, otherwise there will be many insects entering. When entering the tent, be careful not to bring the insects in. You can coax away the insects at the door before entering the tent.
