Troop 7 Cold Weather Camping Checklist
|
|
|
Scouts should pack their own pack so that they know were everything is stored. If they have dedicated camping clothes and other gear that can stay in their pack, packing for a trip can be as simple as adjusting their clothing based on the time of year and packing their food and fuel. All clothing needs to be packed in zip-lock bags. 1-gallon freezer bags work the best. These keep clothes dry and help reduce the size of the clothes by forcing the air out and sealing. The "Packed" list below is organized by rooms in your home. Your pack should be organized in the same way.
