gifts for campers
 

The trees, the stars, the mosquitoes, the rain . . . campers really do sleep better on rocks and roots. And that ruddy, healthy-looking complexion? It's actually the result of using denim for a pillow. The next time you need a gift for the camper on your gift list, try one of these suggestions. In return, you might be invited to share a wilderness adventure over the next three-day weekend!

 
gift ideas  (excerpted from Present Perfect)

To keep your camper snug as a bug (or should we say, snug with the bugs?) give a sleeping bag, bag liner, sheet, blanket, warmer, foam pad, air mattress with pump and repair kit, or folding camp cot.

Equip the chuck wagon with a propane or wood-burning camp stove, reflector oven, butane match, grill and utensils, enamelware camp set, stainless steel cookware, inflatable sink, cooler, bear bag (for suspending food from trees), or bear-resistant food container. An assortment of baking mixes, drink mixes, and freeze-dried meals would also be well received.

Add campsite comfort to the camper's home away from home with a folding chair, stool, lounger, table, hammock, or portable shower.

For roughing it easy, give your camper a new tent. You might find the variety of tents astounding. To mention just a few, there are multi-room cabin tents for family campers, ultralight tents for backpackers, and, for those in a hurry to set up camp, freestanding tents that can be set up in as little as sixty seconds. Lean-tos, cabanas, canopies, and screen houses also provide shelter and privacy. Customized tents are available for use in conjunction with specific cars, trucks, and sport utility vehicles.

Still need more ideas? Try one of these: pocketknife, battery-less razor, reflective emergency blanket, clock-radio-flashlight combination, compass, folding shovel, lantern, axe, binoculars, water filter or purification system, watch (with compass, barometer, or altimeter), camp clothing, prepaid reservations at a campground or recreational vehicle park, or a gift certificate to rent or purchase camping equipment.
