I was one happy girl when I opened my Christmas gift from my boyfriend! I really wanted a fun camping hat so this cute, super warm hat with the ear flaps is perfect! He also got me a new self-inflatable sleeping pad from REI. The REI Trekker 1.75 “Women’s” pad is going to be awesome for hard ground! I already have one from Coleman but it leaks out almost all the air by morning. Lastly, I got a stainless Continue reading

camping, Diva Cup, feminine products, girly, Go Girl, menstrual cycle, REI
I was really skeptical… and still am… but when I glanced by this product at REI I didn’t know what it was! A cup.. for a Diva? Like one you drink out of? Not quite!!! So if you haven’t heard of this, like me, it is an alternative to feminine hygiene products such as tampons and pads. It is supposed to be cleaner than other products. If any guys read this I don’t want to gross them out so just hit the “like” Continue reading

This is a great book if you are looking to read up on some girly camping! Backcountry Betty is funny and tackles real problems like camping cocktails and beauty products that double as survival weapons! My one issue with this book… and every girly camping book: when putting together the ultimate camping outfit, why does she always have cargo shorts on?! Always! It never fails! I am making a statement right Continue reading

Camp Chef Propane Camp Oven and Stove
I, personally, don’t mind cooking hot dogs on a stick over the camp fire but for those of you who want a 5 course meal or prefer to be spoiled (or just love cooking) THIS is for you! From $200-$300, you can buy the Camp Chef Propan Camp Oven and Stove! From certain reviews, this puppy can cook an entire turkey! With using just one 1 lbs propane bottle, it can run on 7 hours for 350 degress. With all this food Continue reading

books, camping, Camping For Dummies, girly, hints, Michael Hodgon, tips
If you are a novice camper and need a camping bible- pick up Camping For Dummies! It is your guide to EVERYTHING for camping! Michael Hodgson goes over everything from tents, backpacks, and sleeping bags to booking your trip and knowing about weather and safety. You can’t read this in one sitting- or two or three- you should use it as a reference guide. There is a lot of common knowledge but I’m sure you will find some helpful hints!

Go Girl FUD (female urination device)
While browsing around this weekend at Bass Pro Shops, I came across this little gem- Go Girl! Go Girl is a FUD, female urination device, which allows ladies to pee standing up! No more crotching down or hovering over the gross public toilet seat. Just cover yourself with this and there you go! I was a little in shock when I saw this! Ever since the beginning of time, guys had this one advantage over girls but now times are changing!! I probably won’t be using this but hey, if this is the kind of device you need to feel comfortable to pee outdoors then more power to you! You Go Girl!!

Are you looking for a light book on girly camping? Let’s Get Primative is a good read for girly girls from the city. The author understands what it is for girls to go into the wild. Heather Menicucci talks about the basic camping techniques as well as recipes, how-to glam, and crafty projects. She has a humerous take on camping and I enjoyed it thoroughly!

MSR MiniWorks EX Water Filter
This little thing has saved our lives camping!!! The MSR MiniWorks EX water filter is AWESOME! It’s light weight, easy to pump, and filters out unpleasant tastes, odors, and bacteria. Stop carrying around huge gallons of water and take this with you! Its a great investment and you pump directly from the stream!
See how easy it is 🙂

easy set-up camping, girlie, girly, girly camping, Half Dome, Half Dome 2, Half Dome 2 Plus, products, products I love, rainfly, REI, tent, vent, waterproof
I LOVE this tent because of one main reason: easy set up! REI’s Half Dome 2 tent is, by far, the easiest tent to set up and break down. It takes 2 minutes to set up the tent entirely! It has a total of 3 poles that basically put themselves together. It’s features are 2 side door panels, storage pockets, vents, waterproof floor, and rainfly built for 2 people. It’s super lightweight- perfect for backpacking. Best part of all- the tent actually fits back into the bag it came in! For $189.00 you can’t get a better qualtiy tent! If you want for room, check out the Half Dome 2 Plus tent- 10 inches longer and 4 inches wider! Check out my instructional video blog or click the video below!
