Not something to be overlooked, proper care and storage of camping gear is essential when these are items you rely on when you're outside and fireside! We'll get into lots of solutions and some challenges for gear storage and keeping things in tip top shape.

When most people think of camping, they think of summer, but in Ontario, there are three other seasons to enjoy outside and fireside! Spring, Fall, and Winter camping have so much to offer so we are sharing all there is to love and what you've got to think of camping in shoulder (and colder!) seasons!

Car camping is one thing, but backcountry is a completely different ball game. We teamed up with one of our Backcountry Besties, Natasha, to walk you through the basics to help you prepare to explore the backcountry!

What's better than one camping trip? Several camping trips back to back! And when it comes to a camping road trip, the journey is as much a part of the experience as your planned destinations. Join us while we discuss camping road trips, from cross country to a little more local and share what we've learned on route!

Does your camping crew include a furry friend or two? 'Cause ours sure do! In this episode we’re talking about all things pets when they come camping. We'll chat about the things you plan for when bringing them (or feathered and scaly companions) on a camping trip. 

Bad weather doesn't have to rain on your camping parade, but preparing for the rain does takes a little more thought than just throwing a tarp into the trunk "just in case!" We're covering all the things you need to consider in wet weather - the good, the bad and soaking wet!

Camping doesn't mean only sleeping in a tent in a campground! There are many different ways to camp and so many places to check out - from the backcountry to a glamping safari! Tune in for discussion on everything beyond the car camping basics to get you outside and fireside.

Join Allison Loghin and Steph Pavan for another season of camping fun with Season 2: Beyond the Basics, brought to you by The Campfire Committee: Outside & Fireside.
