6 Camp Safety Rules

February 16, 2022 Leave a Comment

What are the safety rules to follow at camp?

  1. Research about the campsite
  2. Pack a first aid kit
  3. Check the weather before you go
  4. Inspect your vehicle
  5. Know how to handle a campfire
  6. Be aware of animals on the site

 

Camping is a great way to destress, enjoy nature, and bond with your family off the grid. But if it’s your first time camping overland, there are some safety guidelines you need to follow. This way, you can make the most out of your trip while staying comfortable and safe. After reading these camp safety rules, you will be better prepared when you’re glamping in the Philippines. Read on!

 

Research About the Campsite

Research About the Campsite

When you’re planning a camping trip, you might have searched for places where you can go. Consider the age, physical ability, and medical condition of the people in your group when selecting a campsite.

Other than that, it’s also helpful to know the establishments nearby. List down the address of the hospitals, stores, and alternate driving routes in the vicinity. If you’re going somewhere remote, make sure to download a map so you won’t get lost. This way, you can save time when there’s an emergency.

 

Pack A First Aid Kit

After choosing the campsite, the next step is to pack your belongings. Remember to bring enough food and water. Other than that, don’t forget to include a first aid kit in your baggage.

Campsites are usually located in remote areas so you can enjoy the scenery and camp off the grid. What this means is that it might take some time before medical help arrives in an emergency. A good first aid kit includes items that help you provide basic care in plenty of situations such as a snake bite, drowning, and more.

If you’re looking for a kit, the 100+ Piece Survival FIrst-Aid Kit is useful because it’s designed by leading first aid experts in Australia.

 

Check The Weather Before You Go

Check The Weather Before You Go

Before you hop on your 4×4 vehicle and travel to the campsite, don’t forget to check the weather forecast first. This way, you can confirm if you brought the right clothes and camping gear for the weather. To be safe, you can pack things that are suitable for any atmospheric condition—whether it’s sunny or rainy. This is vital as the weather can change within hours.

A rooftop tent can help protect your belongings in any weather. As it’s pitched on the top of your 4×4, you can prevent the water from getting inside the tent, which ensures that you won’t be sleeping in a puddle. During the summer months, it allows you to catch the breeze better because there are fewer obstructions in the way.

 

Inspect Your Vehicle

Going on trips to remote destinations can be fun and exciting. But to get there, you often have to drive through rough trails. If your 4×4 vehicle is not in the best condition, you might get stuck on the terrain or experience a car problem. If you plan to camp often, it might be a good idea to invest in off-road mags. Look for products that can take on mountainous trails and muddy paths.

If your vehicle gets stuck on the trail or breaks down suddenly, there might not be a mechanic around to help you. It’s also helpful to have safety products that can help you solve the problem on your own such as recovery kits, mechanic tool kits, and the like.

 

Know How to Handle a Campfire

Know How to Handle a Campfire

One of the fun parts of camping is bonding with your loved ones around the campfire—especially if you camp during the colder months. But the fire is a hazard especially if you don’t know how to handle it.

Before making a campfire, always ensure that it’s allowed in your campsite. If it is, only set a fire in the designated areas. Position your tent at least 3 meters away from the heat source. Remove flammable items such as fuel cans as well. Other than that, don’t take your attention away from the fire.

To keep the fire off the ground, you can also use a portable steel fire pit. This can be packed down flat, which makes it easy for storage and transport.

 

Be Aware of Animals On the Site

Depending on the weather and the location of the campsite, you might encounter some animals during your stay. This includes mosquitos, ticks, snakes, frogs, and more.

Some of the insects can irritate your skin, so make sure to use an insect repellant and wear full-length shirts and pants. In rare cases, some insects might carry diseases, so it’s better to be careful. To avoid attracting hungry animals, keep your food stored away in airtight containers.

 

Key Takeaway

Camping involves staying in an outdoor location away from the comforts of your home. Because of that, you need to make sure that your group is not just comfortable but also safe. By following these camp safety rules, you can avoid sleeping on the wet ground due to unexpected rain, act quickly in a medical emergency, fix vehicle problems, and more.
