Tailgating Tips
Aluminum foil can be shaped into bowls, cups, plates, etc. in an emergency or for ease of cleaning. Remember to recycle the used utensils.
Duct tape can be used to repair most everything on a trip. Use it to patch tents, mend poles, hold up schedules, patch torn shoes, hold poles for mosquito nets to cots, etc.
Mark your dining tarps dimensions on the edge so you know which tarp is which without having to unfold them. Use an arrow to point which size is which way.
For families, use a large trash can with lid for your laundry.
Keep a picture of your children with you in case they get lost.
To cut down on cooking time of baked potatoes, start the potatoes in your microwave (bake till about half cooked) before you leave. Wrap them in aluminum foil and toss in the cooler until needed. (The foil holds the heat in and continues to cook them too!) When ready to prepare potatoes with your meal, pull them out of your cooler and toss on the fire to re-heat. This cuts cooking time way down!
Make a box for your binder's twine. String the twine through a hold in the top of the box. This will keep you from having multiple ends and tangling. Mark the box in inches so twine can be measure to reduce waste.
Warm up water by filling a black trash bag and laying the bag in direct sun.
