Hello! Welcome to How inTents!
This site is intended as an idea exchange for tent camping enthusiasts who either backpack or car camp using tents (i.e. how in tents. See? I told you it was a bad pun!). My husband and I have done a lot of this over the last twenty years and as we've gotten older, we've gotten wiser about how to make it just a little bit more civilized. You don't always need the latest gear from REI or Mountain Equipment Co-op (although it's always fun looking!) and sometimes it's cool to outsmart all the 'big' outfitters by coming up with equipment and techniques that don't part you from as much of your money.
To start, the articles will be about tent camping specifically, but I'm hopeful people will contribute information about everything from backpacking food to the contents of the 'food box' or 'kitchen box' to what kind of stove you prefer. There may even be articles about lesser known camping areas and photography/photo gear advice. I'll try to toss in a recipe for camp food (beyond open this can and put it in this pot, heat, eat), and I encourage others to do the same!
Tent camping is a blast, so let's get started!
About Me
- Elizabeth Haysmont
- It seems Elizabeth Haysmont’s entire life has been dedicated to research. At least that’s the spin she’s putting on it when she tries to explain why so many of her real life experiences end up in her books. Motorcyclist, photographer, graphic artist, traveler, caver, history buff, rail buff, hiker, off-roader, musician, actor – Life has dragged her (with her husband of twenty-plus years) through 35 states and six foreign countries. She and her husband even chose an adventurous way to wed: in a cave near St. Louis, 50 feet underground. She likes to think that with all this fodder for her imagination, her current friends are safe from being included in one of her novels. But you never know.
