best tents for kayak camping image
cc
We wanted to be able to carry our stuff with us (like tent and cooking and clothes ect.) and stop at camp sites on the way. Also, we wanted to find a place where we could snorkel. Thanks!
Answer
You shouldn't have any trouble with any of it....contact Lake Quachita....and ask them to send you a map of the lake.....Most of the time you can get one when you are at the lake....they are quite a few places that carry them......snorkel....wow, there are quite a few people that snorkel in Quachita...
You can camp anywhere on the lake.....I believe there are only a few homes along the river that you might not be able to camp ....but, the whole lake is open........Have fun...enjoy the wild life....You'll love the beauty of the mountains that surround the lake

What do I need for a 7 day outdoor expedition?

I am trying to figure out what kind of things I will need to go on a 7-day canoe and portage trip on the Bowron Lakes in BC, Canada. It will be all outdoors and I will be camping every night. It will be slightly chilly but never below freezing. The trick is to keep all the equipment under 60lbs because that is all that is allowed. What are the essentials that I should try to bring?
Answer
You don't mention if you're going alone or with a group - if with a group you can share equipment (tent, stove & fuel, water filter) to save on weight. Here's a basic list:
Good hiking boots (I like the NRS neoprene for canoe/kayaking)
Backpack with rain cover
topographic map(s)
compass
gorp (trail food/snacks)
whistle
emergency mirror
first aid kit (with moleskin)
Tent (as I mentioned above you can share this with a group)
Sleeping bag (10 deg colder than you expect to sleep in)
Sleeping pad
flashlight/headlamp (plus extra batteries)
bug bite stick
sunscreen
insect repellent
toilet paper
Shovel, trowel, or spade
Fixed blade knife
saw/hatchet
matches/lighter
2-4 1L Nalgene water bottles
water filter (as I mentioned above you can share this with a group)
backpacking stove (as I mentioned above you can share this)
stove fuel (as I mentioned above you can share this with a group)
cooking gear & utensils (1 pot, 1 spoon/fork or spork)
dehydrated meal packs (I prefer the Mountain House brand)
- breakfasts x 7+1 extra day (just in case)
- dinners x 7+1 extra day (just in case)
repair kits (pack, pad, stove, filter, etc.)
Zip-Loc bags for trash
Rain gear
Fleece jacket, hat, & gloves
Good luck and have a great time. I'm jealous.
