Constance,
The following list probably duplicates a lot of the list Kat gave you.
Some items won't apply, and I don't even pretend that it's anywhere
near complete. Some notes that apply to some of the items:
Food: Bring things that don't need a lot of preparation. With the
weather predicted to turn cooler, things that can be fixed with boiling
water are good: coffee, tea, hot chocolate, instant soups, cup o'
noodle-type things, instant oatmeal.
Chairs: Always at a premium, so it's important to bring them.
Clothes: Again, with the weather turning cooler, it's important to
have adequate clothing on hand. Try to plan on dressing in layers, so
that you can take off or put on a layer as the termperature dictates.
Note: Put a set of mundane clothing per person in ziplock bags or keep
in your vehicle so no matter what the weather turns out to be, youll
have dry clothes to drive home in.
Plates/Flatware: In camp, we tend to use disposable plates and
flatware, to help keep cleanup requirements down.
Air Mattress/Cot: Not only more comfortable than the ground, but helps
to keep you warmer when the weather turns cold.
Tarps: One under the tent will help to keep the bottom of your tent
clean (an important factor when you are breaking camp on Sunday
morning), and another that can be put over the top of the tent if the
weather turns damp - helps to keep the leaks to a minimum.
Hope this helps.
