By Estelle Larsen


A productive weekend can be achieved through doing lots of activities. Your car or your house can be cleaned. Other meaningful hobbies can also be done instead of sitting all day and watching television programs.

You may find an outdoor activity to be fun. For this, you can enjoy camping in The Berkshires for the weekend. There are several tips that you can make use of when you decide to do such activity this weekend.

You need to be purchasing all necessary gears for this outdoor adventure. You will be needing a backpack, a tent, and a sleeping bag, among other items. A salesperson can be asked for the items recommended for this activity. You may also need to be buying extra tent rods and trying the tent at home before you go. You must not forget purchasing a safety kit for emergencies.

These items will have to be prepared the night before your trip. A checklist can be made to help you ensure that all necessary things are packed for this trip. You definitely do not want something to be forgotten which could make you feel uncomfortable during the whole trip.

You should be wearing the appropriate attire. You should be wearing clean clothes. You need to wear thin clothes to keep you fresh as well as cool during the summer time. On a different note, you need to wear thicker ones to protect your body from freezing the harsh cold of the rainy season.

You should not wander too far away. It is understandable that you would like to roam around and discover other areas other than your camp. However, if you are really that curious, you may need to let another camper accompany you. You may also have to bring with you several gadgets such as a GPS system, a compass, or a map to help you find your way back.

Once your weekend adventure is done, all your things should be packed and brought back home. During these times, you can also make use of a checklist. Aside from that, the area that you used should also be cleaned. Garbage should be thrown in trash cans so that nature can be preserved. Fire, which was set up for food to be cooked or keep yourself warm, should be put out so that wildfire will not destroy the area.
