If you are a novice in camping and hiking, start with day adventure trips till you feel you are comfortable and skilled enough to plan a few days in wilderness parks. In a moment of panic when you cannot see anything because of a power failure, a flashlight kept handy saves a lot of trouble.
My favorite place to hike is the Rocky Mountains. Judging by the many accessories in today's RV's, roughing it may not mean the same as it did years ago. Some extra food and water is just as important so stock up before you leave and replenish your stock at every point of civilization.
A good boot gives your foot and ankle the proper amount of stiffness yet springiness it needs. Battery powered lanterns tend to not work well in colder climates as the batteries tend to run down faster due to the cold. Websites like this one will help you by recommending the necessary equipment as well as providing information about how to approach ascends and descents.
Our family camping tent was fourteen feet long and had two huge rooms, I always loved those things as a kid. Take the time to find a pair of boots that feel terrific as soon as you put them on. Technology has certainly been upgraded over the years with some truly awesome camping amenities.
Many a flashlight has been broke because the kids accedently dropped it on the ground. The gear can run you some bucks, but the cost is nominal compared to most other sports.
