best tents for camping australia image
Q. I would like to book a weekend camping trip for about 20 people? The camp manager told me that I need at least 20 campers.
The camp site is 50 km from Melbourne, Australia.
Now, where should I advertise to get 20 perspective campers?

Answer
I'm pretty sure that strangers won't be interested in going on a camping trip with other people they don't know. Personally, I only enjoy camping when I'm with friends and we can just goof off and be ourselves, laughing while we screw up pitching the tent or drop food in the fire.
Why not just find a different camp ground where you don't need so many people to book a site and go with some friends? No awkwardness, more fun.

What is a good size for a pack for extended expeditions?

What size packs would be needed for 3 nights, 1 week, and 2 week camping summer and winter? How would a 70L pack work? Also, where should the tent be palced? I don't ever see tent attachment options for packs?
Answer
The tent goes on top or along the base or anywhere you feel it's most comfortable. Most good packs have straps on them for fixing tents and sleeping bags. If it hasn't use a couple of bungee cords. Bend the hooks round so they don't catch on things.
My tents are very lightweight so they weigh about the same as the sleeping bag and they go one either side of my pack and I can open it without them getting in the way.
Different With the Vango mountain tent...it's heavier and bulkier so it goes on top.
Put them into a couple of big black bin liners well wrapped round and carry a couple spare...very useful bags those, very light, good for sorting stuff as well, tidying the pack without having stuff out in the rain or whatever and get a rucksack cover to put over the pack...added security, weather protection.
How big?
How light can you travel? How many luxuries do you want? Can't live without music, CD player and 20 CDs? MP3... laptop.... I've seen a few like that.
How are you cooking? Got stoves and pans and loads of food? How bulky?
My MSR Dragonfly packs small.
Water bottles.....errr hydration systems for the posh technical name lot.
Water bottles have been OK for me on five continents so far. Keep it simple me....I don't go for fancy names.
Can you get water or are you taking loads of it? Weight and bulk soon adds up to not so happy with this lot to carry.
I take 1-month hiking trips all round the world summer and winter spring and autumn with a 50-litre Nomad pack and it does OK for me.
Alps, Andes, Atacama, Africa, Asia, Australia, all the same....
All start with 'A'...all Accessed without trouble....
Some people couldn't live for a weekend with that 50 litre pack. Want everything with them. Sometimes I've got field equipment in it too...stereo microscope, cameras, etc for biology field trips.
Still no problem for me but some would have.
65-70 liter rucksack carries enough to live for a year easy if you want to live simple and walk easy, or 2-week trips with loads of food, and enough goodies for comfort.
Not too bulky, easy carrying, very popular size.
But only you know if it's big enough for you...or small enough.
Have some good trips.
