What are some uses for a camping tarp?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Camping tarps can be used for a multitude of purposes. They are great to use when hiking and a sudden rain storm hits. A person can drape it over them to shield them from the rain. Tarps are great for covering items that are stored outside to prevent them from being rained on. They are also great to use as an emergency shelter if a person gets disoriented.

Who made the Western Field Model 780 308 Rifle?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I have one of the Western Field 38 and after some searching on the internet I found a sight with OLD mossberg catalogs on it. http://home.epix.net/~damguy/catalog.htm it looks like mine is a Mossberg Model 35 with No.3 Peep Sight and and the mulit post ramp sight. I think the No.3 peep was a lower cost option than the micro-click. Mossberg did in fact make that rifle for Montgomery Wards.

Why would you need to bring a rope camping?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If your outdoor adventure involves rock climbing then you will definitely need a climbing rope. They are an important safety feature for rock climbing because when you string climbing rope through carabineers, the climbing rope can break your fall if you slip. Also if your outdoor adventure involves boating or using a lasso, you can also use climbing rope. If you just hiking on a familiar trail on your outdoor adventure, you do not climbing rope.

Instructions to put together a Coleman laurel creek tent?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Always best to put down a tarp first. A little smaller than the tent. First stake the four corners. Then put together the two long shock poles.

Slide them through the sleeves in the top of the tent and secure the ends into the grommet holes at each corner while raising the tent at the same time.Now take the rain fly and put it over the tent with the vents to the sides. Attach each corner of the fly to the corner grommets of the tent. Slide the small pole through the front of the fly and attach to holes in the tent. Secure all tie downs with the stakes that are provided. Enjoy,

What food you need for camping?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depending on the type of camping you are doing, the amount of time you will be in the wilderness and how strenous the work you will be doing you may want to consider the following options:

Camping in non-remote area for short period of time:Try bringing Beans, hotdogs, water, soups, marshmellows and dry nacks. Don't forget the can opener and the pots and bowls. This is recommended for short trips where you can have a cooler at the camp sight.

IF you are trecking into the wilderness and excerting lots of energy try the following:

Bring dehydrated meals or self heating meals which you can purchase at a local sporting goods store. Also, bring lots of clean water, some water purification tabs or a filter to remove any micro organisms if you need to get more water from a lake or stream on your journey. Also, pack lots of high calorie snacks for energy, I always like granola bars, nuts and dried fruits. You can expend over 3000 calories a day if you are doing alot of physical activity. You can get alot of ideas if you goto the local sporting goods store and look in their camping isle.

Asked by Wiki User

The three thicker poles are inserted into the plastic triangle which forms the top of the tent. Insert a pin on the O ring into each end of the poles. Attach the c-clasps around the poles. The longer poles are inserted in a similar manner. The blue pole is used for the front porch. Attach the c-clasps around the poles. Insert the metal pins through the loops to fully extend and secure the tent before attaching the tarp/rain-fly. The "Greatland" logo goes over the entrance.

You can re-order them from the factory at 800-775-1965. Tell them your tent model number and the parts you need. I believe the tent pole part numbers are CPOL-392BL and TPOL-428RD but they will be able to verify.

How do you put together a camp mate tent with metal poles?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depending on the nature of the damage there isn't a good way to fix tent poles. Generally if they are bent, you can bend them back into shape, although they sometimes lose their structural integrity, making them susceptible to bending again in the future. Your best bet is to go to a gear shop and replace them altogether.

Asked by Wiki User

Minimal impact camping is when you go camping, hiking, hunting, or any other outdoor activity, particularly in wilderness areas, where you leave no evidence of your ever having been there. That mean leaving no trash, picked flowers, damaged landscape or other human residue, physical or otherwise behind. In other words, leave it as you found it!

What is a sleeping bag made of?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Canvas, polyester or water proof cotton for the exterior. They are usually filled with down feathers or polyester fiberfill. They are temperature rated so select the one that best fits your needs. You wouldn't want a light weight one if you are camping in the mountains in the winter and you wouldn't want a heavy one if you are camping in the desert. Sleeping bags for kids will be made of a fire retardant material to protect your child in the event the unthinkable should happen.
