What to wear on your camping or hiking trip depends largely on the season. From head to toe, your attire can make a difference between a pleasant trip and a struggle with the elements.

Planning is the most important part of your trip and any mistakes made during the planning phase can affect your journey - sometimes for the better but more often for the worse.

There are many things to consider when planning a hiking or camping trip, but safety is the primary focus of any expedition. In all cases, carrying a first aid kit is a necessity.
