Why does wood burn quickly when put on a fire that is already blazing?

Because heat is a big factor in starting and keeping a fire. You have air, and fuel, and the heat is already factored in. The wood that is already there burning helps too because the fact that it is burning means that most of the wood is dry, and dry wood burns much faster than wet or damp wood. Plus, the dry burning wood dries out any new wood that is placed on top of it, making all of the wood dry, which is the same as stacking tinder, as it is already ready to be set ablaze.

What foods are best for camping?

Good foods for camping are foods that will not spoil on your trip (if you are camping with a cooler, this includes pretty much anything you eat at home) and foods that are easy to cook at your campsite. If you plan to cook over a fire or a simple backpacking style stove the best foods are foods that can be cooked on a grill, on a stick or in a packet of foil like hot dogs and other meat, marshmallows, baking potatoes, corn and foods that can be boiled like noodles, soups, corn, and veggies. Canned foods that just need to be heated up are good for people who are uncomfortable with cooking in a primitive kitchen. Other good camping foods are foods that don't need to be cooked at all like sandwiches, crackers, chips, and fruit. That said, you really can eat whatever you want when you go camping: the deliciousness of your camping food is restricted only by your own creativity and ability to cook in a primitive kitchen.

For a backpacking trip the best foods are non-perishable foods that are lightweight, high in nutrients/calories and use a minimal amount of fuel to prepare. Foods like nuts, dried fruits, beef jerky, powdered soups, pasta, couscous, parboiled rice, and dried veggies. There is advice and good recipes for backpacking at the website in related links. The website is about hiking the Wonderland trail around Mt. Rainier but the meal planning advice works for any backpacking trip.

Is camping safe?

  1. You might easily get lost
  2. You might be injured
  3. You might run into a dangerous animal
  4. You might get sick
  5. You might camp on a flood plain and be washed away with a flash flood
  6. You might never be seen again

Always make sure someone knows exactly where you are and never camp by yourself unless it is in one of those public campgrounds with rangers and lots of other people around you.

When on a camping holiday how far apart should the tents be placed?

I don't know of any distance between tents that is a requirement anywhere, but you do not want to have any guy lines from the tents criss crossing and causing a tripping hazard. I have set up tents really close before because there just wasn't enough room but I prefer to spread out. When you set up your camp with several tents, you should set it up with specific things in mind. Where is the trails coming in and out of the site, do not block the trail to the outhouse, bath house, rest room, etc. Set it up with plenty of room to breath and work around the camp. Keep tents away from the cooking area. The cooking area attracts critters, big and small, during the night. If Bob snores or worse yet, has eaten more then his share of the beans for dinner, then you may want some distance from his tent particularly up wind. (Pay attention to the wind direction). Seriously though, you want to set up your tents in a way that will not hamper your movements and actions in the camp and keep things safe.

Tents should be 200 feet from lakes and streams, and about that far from cooking areas (especially in bear country).

Don't forget about lightning. If it looks like storms are approaching, spread your tents out by at least 15-20 feet for safety. Otherwise, the whole campsite could get zapped by one strike. (Learn more about lightning before you go!)
