One Pot Dinner Ideas That Are Perfect for the Campfire

One Pot Dinner Ideas That Are Perfect for the Campfire

February 08, 2022

Rural lifestyle author Fennel Hudson once said, “Cooking and eating food outdoors makes it taste infinitely better than the same meal prepared and consumed indoors”…and we couldn’t agree more. From campfire coffee to a big pot of chili to ooey gooey s’mores…there’s something undeniably delicious about the subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) smokiness that cooking over an open flame imparts on our food.

We all know the benefits of spending more time outdoors—vitamin D intake, fresh air, etc.—but actually carving time out of our busy schedules to spend in the great wide open can sometimes feel daunting. Who has the time (or energy) to drive to a state part after a day’s work to hit the trails?

5 of the Top U.S. Destinations for Winter Hiking

December 11, 2021

Many outdoor enthusiasts associate hiking with spring, summer, and fall…but hesitate to head outdoors during the winter months. If this describes you, it’s time for an attitude adjustment. The truth is winter hiking offers a wealth of perks…including virtually deserted trails (because everyone else apparently thinks hiking stops in the winter) and breathtaking wintry views.

7 Road Trip Must Haves In Case of an Emergency

7 Road Trip Must Haves In Case of an Emergency

November 23, 2021

“Be prepared” may be the mantra of the Boy Scouts, but this maxim isn’t limited to hiking or camping situations, and there may be no circumstance where it is more applicable than prepping for a road trip.

While there is often a spirit of spontaneity around the idea of setting out on the open road, the truth is, it’s important to take the time to make sure your car is properly stocked with must-have items in the event of an emergency.

Is it fun to think about? Not really. Is it important to the safety of you and your passengers? Absolutely.

With the holidays approaching, odds are high that you will be opting for road trips to visit friends and loved ones. To ensure you’re properly prepared, we’ve gathered a list of 7 items that should be standard issue in your car before taking off to distant destinations.

A spare tire…that’s fully inflated

This may seem like a no-brainer, but you’d be surprised how many people purchase a car and never think about their spare tire until they need it…often years later.

Spare tires are prone to slowly losing air over time, so check the air pressure before taking off. You should also plan to replace the tire altogether if it’s over six years old.

Jumper Cables

Think of a set of jumper cables as insurance—you may never need them but, if you do, you’ll be awfully glad to have them on hand.

A Basic Set of Tools and Accessories

Keep a toolbox in your car with a few basic necessities like:

  • A socket and screwdriver set
  • A fixed-blade knife
  • A tow strap
  • A tire pressure gauge
  • A can of fix-a-flat

A Flashlight

It’s important to keep a reliable light source on hand in the event your emergency takes place at night. And even in the daylight, a flashlight can make checking under the hood of your car infinitely easier.

The Guardian 1300XL Tactical Flashlight is the perfect accessory for your car.

Not only can it illuminate up to 300 yards (that’s 3 football fields, friends!), it also has an SOS mode that can be used to signal for help.

Emergency Warning Triangles

Warning triangles are inexpensive, but just might save your life in the event of an emergency. These highly reflective signs increase your visibility and warn other drivers of your presence.

First Aid Kit

Keep a first aid kit in your car that contains all the basics. There are a variety of kits on the market, and you don’t have to purchase one that is marketed for use in the car (though such kits often contain roadside necessities like jumper cables in addition to the standard first-aid items).

Any kit you purchase should include items like antiseptic wipes, tweezers, bandages, band aids, scissors, tape, gloves, and a cold pack. You may also want to add an emergency blanket if one isn’t included.

Cold Weather Items

If you’re travelling during harsh winter weather, you may want to add a few items that you don’t necessarily need the rest of the year, like:

  • Ice scraper and/or snow brush for windshields and windows
  • Cat litter (can be used for traction)
  • Extra blankets

Let go of the idea that being prepared means you lack spontaneity and wear the badge of a responsible, prepared car owner with pride. With just a few inexpensive necessities, you can ensure you have everything you need for a rollicking…and safe…road trip.
