If you’ve been contemplating getting a portable tent air conditioner (a.k.a. tent AC) – you’re in luck…
Never before have there been so many quality options to choose from.
So, yes, you SHOULD invest in a tent air conditioner. It will make your summer camping experience 10 times better!

Seems like every week I get tons of questions about them.
For example:
I get it. These are the very same questions I had.

We all want to know if they’re a reliable source of backup power generation. [Read more…]
The Best Outdoor Solar Lanterns For Camping and Survival
Having a dependable source of light in a survival situation is not just a “good idea”; it’s an essential one.
Not only can it light your way through the deep dark woods or an abandoned warehouse, but it’s an important morale booster.
Light acts like a security blanket in times of uncertainty.
Something to keep your mind strong and hope alive – when all it wants to do is freak out.
It’s sort of like fire in that way…
So it’s no surprise we get a lot of questions about what’s the best survival light source. [Read more…]
At the end of the day, nothing feels better than kicking off your boots and settling in for a good night’s sleep.
In a survival situation where you’ve been on the move all day, that goes double!
That’s why your choice of survival shelter makes a huge difference.
A cabin or other permanent structure gives you the ability to have a real bed and get the best sleep. But a traditional mattress isn’t very portable, even with a vehicle.
Most people reach for a tent when the situation calls for mobility.
Tents of all kinds are getting lighter and more compact every year, with great features. [Read more…]
Let me just say – there’s something incredibly satisfying about cooking a meal with the power of the sun.
Harnessing the power of sun’s rays to slow cook or grill a meal gives me a welling sense of pride.
I enjoy using human ingenuity to capture a little bit of the sun to put warm food in my belly.
And I like knowing that if the power grid were to go down for a long time, I’d still have a way to cook a meal.
Sure, you could cook a meal using fire, but solar ovens don’t require any “extra” resources.
It’s using the “free,” virtually unlimited, readily available fuel and putting it to good use. [Read more…]
FACT: Camping is way more fun when it’s comfortable.
So if you’re like me, you’ve come to the conclusion that sleeping on the ground in your camping tent is becoming less and less appealing.
No matter how nice your sleeping pad is, getting up and down off the floor is becoming a real pain in the…
But you don’t need to buy an expensive RV in order to eliminate this hassle, instead, you just need a quality camping cot.
A cot you can fold down, pack, take with you and set up in minutes.

One of the most annoying parts of having a campfire or backyard fire is avoiding the smoke.
It seems like no matter where you sit, or how often you move the smoke manages to find you!
Making you either sit there to tough it out or scuttling your camp chair around constantly.
And that’s just when you’re sitting around the fire at a normal distance.
It’s even worse if you’re hovering over it to keep your hands warm, to dry clothing, or to cook over the flames.
In these scenarios, it’s nearly impossible to stay out of the thick nasty white smoke. [Read more…]
In backpacking and survival – “every ounce counts.”
That’s a saying I learned years ago when I first began backpacking.
Every bit of weight you put into your pack must have a very good reason to be there.
Every piece of gear has to be useful.
When you’re packing for a long trip, it’s crucial to trim your pack weight down to just the bare essentials.
Otherwise, you’ll struggle through the day and get to camp exhausted.
Day after day, too much weight will grind you down and make a backpacking trip (or bug out) a real drag. [Read more…]
