 WILD ANIMALS

 With summer upon us the camping supplies come out! With the camping supplies come the adventures the warm sun and summer breeze brings out. With every camping trip and backpacking adventure the need to be prepared is always among us. When it comes to packing for your outdoor adventures one can never be too careful. Wilderness survival gear should be packed using great care; every adventurer should realize that there are extreme risks involved when it comes to the unknown that the outdoors brings with it.

When it comes to packing for an adventure the most important thing is that you are prepared for the unexpected. Make the right choices when it comes to survival equipment as it may be the difference between life and death on your next camping excursion. With the wide variety of survival gear available how does an inexperienced camper know what to bring on their first great adventure? What is important verse what becomes a waste of space within your backpack?

The first thing any outdoor adventurer should do is to create a list of what is needed on where they are going, what they are doing and how they are getting there. Different climates, as well as different terrains will call for a mix of different outdoor wilderness needs. This should be obvious; the desert needs different preparations than would a rain forest.

Some things that are needed no matter what the terrain or climate and should be in every pack include the basics such as fuel for a fire, a compass or other navigational tool, a way to purify water and a knife to assist in building a shelter.

Fire is needed for many reasons no matter what climate you are backpacking in. Not only is fire a good source of heat, but it is also important for lighting, cooking and possible water purification. Consider purchasing slow burning fire sticks, magnesium fire starters, flint or waterproof matches. These are all great sources that will allow fire to be created and sustained in a variety of climates.

A compass or other navigational tools such as GPS or paper maps are important when exploring territory that is unknown or new to you. When looking to purchase a compass be sure it is easy to use. GPS systems are great tools that can be used to not only track the environment you are in but also used to track and identify where you are. This feature often requires a subscription. When it comes to a low tech gadget that will direction a compass is the best bet for backpacking adventures.

A system to purify water is also essential in outdoor adventures. The human body can only be without water for between three days and one week. Water is needed for the body to survive. When you are lost in the wilderness the last thing you need is to become sick and dehydrated from drinking contaminated water. Purchase water purification tablets and purification straws are without a doubt one of the most important items that should be contained within your survival pack.

For food and building shelter a knife is also an item that should be carried on any outdoor adventure no matter how long or short the adventure is scheduled to be. Even the shortest of trips have been known to take a wrong turn into unexpected territory. Be prepared for anything every time you camp or back pack into territory that is unique to you.




  DANGEROUS

Outdoor adventure travel! What does this mean? Many people are getting excited about outdoor adventure travel that entails a higher risk that normal travel has to offer. Outdoor adventure travel in not restricted to the young but the older generation is also taking part. There's a trend among people who take regular travel a little boring, mundane or just to predictable. Many now seek out outdoor adventure travel that can put some interest back into their vacations.

When traveling the usual tourist route doesn't raise any real excitement in travelers who see this type of travel as somewhat mundane. Outdoor adventure travel has changed the modern day traveler and has certainly got them thinking. With new ideas for outdoor adventure travel, blood has been sent to new high levels for the adventurous person.

When contemplating your next outdoor adventure travel it sends tingles of excitement up and down the spine. There are numerous opportunities that await you around the next bend. Just imagine meeting new people and their culture, the different and off the beaten track places to see and visit.

Outdoor adventure travel is considered different than the normal travel destinations the most people take. Outdoor adventure travel provides you with a new perspective when traveling to popular tourist destinations. I'll use the Caribbean as an example. This means visiting many of the same beaches, staying in the same hotels that provide nothing new and do the same thing day in day out. Try thinking of new places that tourist don't or very rarely want to visit, you will produce some interesting results.

You don't have to be bogged down with the same activities while in the Caribbean. Take an eco-trek into the tropical rain forests, go bird watching are just a few ideas. Go see the local in their surroundings. You will see different costumes that the locals wear, the food and their culture.

Australia is another great destination. Australia is a vast continent and offers some great outdoor adventure travel. Watching the dingo in their habitat, ballooning across the continent, or snorkel or scuba dive the Great Barrier Reef.

The great thing about outdoor adventure travel it isn't restricted to the young, more and more adults are being attracted to a wonderful new experience, the outdoor adventure travel. The only limiting factor is your imagination.
