Primitive Camping

tater03 · 03-10-2009, 12:04 PM

So do any of you guys like to go primitive camping? I don't mind it. I love when it's quiet and you don't have all that background noise going on and can just enjoy what nature has to offer.

I'd say thats what it's all about.

Yes I have went primitive camping a few times. I like it, but I would not want to do it all the time.

that's my main form of camping, could also be called rustic. about the only ammenities are a outhouse and a pump well, sometimes you don't even have those. i've gone bondocking and all you have is what you brought. theres no plumbing, electric, just you and nature, make youre own firepit and enjoy.

I think [rimitive camping is one of the best ways to get to the basics and closest to nature. And once you get the hang of it, you really don't miss the comforts of electricity, hot water etc. More important is nature and you.

No, it is not for me, I need a certain degree of comfort otherwise I would be miserable.

See as long as I have the light where I can read my book I could sit outside or in the tent and read and just be happy.

I agree...it is good to have friends with you so that you have company and can talk for a long long time around the camp fire....
