This site was started in response to an apparent need for backpacking and camping information for ‘normal people’. Those of us with a job, families, etc.

My goal is to provide useful information for anyone interested in camping, lightweight backpacking, or family trips. Sometimes all three can even be combined for a family camping and backpacking trip

I will work hard to provide useful gear reviews on affordable equipment. I will post trip reports and trip planning information. I will report on camping with kids, backpacking with kids, and travelling with kids.

There are so many great things to see, so let’s get outside and enjoy ourselves.

Happy Trails.
