Camping Starter List

Whether you need a supply list for Women’s Weekend of Wheeling or a short trip in the woods, we’ve got a starter list for you.

• Tent or something to sleep in.

• Sleeping bag or blankets - be sure to check the weather before hand so you know what the lowest temperature will be. Sleeping bags have a temperature rating, so you’ll know exactly what temperatures it will work for. It is typically much colder up north than it typically is around the twin cities.

• Air mattress, cot, something cozy to add to the floor if you want some extra cushion.

• Flashlights

• Towel, washcloth, wet wipes, paper towels

• Deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste, and any other hygeine items you need.

• Non-perishable food items for breakfast, snacks, or even dinner. Dehydrated meals work great if you have a jetboil.

• Cooler if you need to keep any items cold.

• Water and beverages

• Mini fan if the temperatures are high

• Clothes

• Rain jacket, hoodie, warm jacket

• Mud shoes or hiking boots, and something comfortable for after you’re done on the trail to relax in.

• Bug spray and/or thermacell

• Sunblock

• Hat, visor, sunglasses, neck gaiter
