But the point is, I’ve never gone camping. So how much do campsites generally cost?

Best answer:

Answer by Craig
This depends on where you’re staying. Rural campgrounds on BLM land can be free to a few dollars…state parks cost anywhere from $ 5 to $ 25…it’s usually less expensive to show-up and pay, especially this time of year. There’s a site online that sells state park camp site spots nationwide and they have a monopoly on state park camp lands, I’m not going to mention their name because they are a total rip-off, they can charge “surcharges” that are more than the cost of the campsite! Check-out this map of places to camp near Ft. Davis, many are hike-in but camping there can be free:

Well, the best way is over a camp fire. But, if you don’t have a campfire, use a cast iron skillet. Sear it well on both sides and put under a pre-heated broiler for a few min a side. Top with softened butter to melt over it while it rests before you cut into it.

Question by Rudy R: Help!!!What is a good side dish for kids on a camping trip?
I am going a Cub Scout campout this weekend and have to take tortilla chips and a side dish. The main dish is chicken fajitas. Cooking will be limited to campfire, maybe propane camp stove. 9 Kids and 9 adults.
I will be taking whatever I need to get the job done. Someone else is doing grilled vegetebles, corn, and desert.

Answer by Beth P
Are you taking a full compliment of pots and pans or just a basic frying pan and dutch oven or something? Canned baked beans are a simple, nutritious side dish that can easily be heated up. If you’re really adventurous, it’s easy to make homemade baked beans and they taste even better than the canned version.

But, if you want something more in keeping with fajitas, you could do re-fried beans or Spanish rice. Corn on the cob is also easy to do over a fire, if it has a grill surface over it. Soak the whole ear of corn (unshucked) in a bucket of water for a half an hour and then roast over a low fire or preferably, hot coals and turn as the husk blackens. When the husk is uniformly black all the way around, the corn is ready to peel and eat!

Also, a simple green salad and some fresh fruit wouldn’t take a few minutes to make up and dole out and don’t require any cooking.

Good luck & have fun!

I hate Tents, they’re so flimy, and a bear could easily break in and gobble everybody up.
I like Tipis, just bring a really big tarp, and either a machete, hatchet, or a big USMC Ka-Bar and hack yourself some smaller trees down, loop some cordage around the top part and spread your tipi poles out, wrap with the Tarp. Use Bungee Cords to secure an entrance.

Question by Richard: Can you grill at the Big Bear parking lot?
I have a Propane Camping Stove that i use at mountain high to make breakfast during break from snowboarding. I was wondering if anyone knows if i could do the same in the big bear parking lot with out anyone telling me to stop.

Best answer:

Answer by A Hunch
Big Bear is a city with multiple parking lots. I believe you mean Bear Mountain or Snow Summit.
This is what I would guess = no one so far has had a problem with you cooking in the parking lot of Mt High. Some day, some “joe” security guard might and there may or may not be cooking after that. And the same thing is likely to happen in Big Bear. No one may care, but then again the dude on duty might.

How toxic are the fuel cubes? Are we OK from a one time exposure?
How am I supposed to read the instructions? They are written in German.

Best answer:

Answer by chris w
These are not meant to be used indoors at all. They burn fuel tablets and if you were to READ th labels you would know they produce carbon monoxide fumes which can kill you.

In addition Hexamine is prepared by the reaction of formaldehyde and ammonia. In an acid environment hexamine is converted to formaldehyde, which is toxic. Material Safety Data Sheet states combustion can create formaldehyde, ammonia, nitrogen oxide, hydrogen cyanide and ingestion may cause nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal disturbances, and kidney damage. [1] When burned, the chemical oxidation of the fuel yields noxious fumes, requiring foods being cooked to be contained in a receptacle such as a pot or pan, and burned tablets will leave a sticky dark residue on the bottom of pots. If they are stored or used under damp conditions then they can break up while burning and shed burning fragments.
