Child Backpack
How do you assemble a backpack and sleeping bag for camping?
New at camping and hiking. My 12 year old is in Boy Scouts. He has packed light, but the backpack is still so bulky. We can’t use a framed backpack because he will have to crawl through some low areas and push his stuff through the opening. I know there must be an easy way to put it all together. The load has to be light enough for a 12 year old child to carry on a caving expedition. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated!
I’m 14 and started when I was 12. I live in Alaska, so this may not be what you’re looking for, but I’ll do my best. First, I always try to bring the smallest and lightest bag that I have that works for the coldest it should get. You can always layer up if you get cold. Also, internal frames are good, except for that you’ll need to put most items on the inside from what I’ve experienced. Go through your pack when you’re done packing to make sure that there’s nothing that you don’t need or is worth its weight. One extra tip- Use some clothes as a pillow, as it keeps them warm when it’s cold and doesn’t take extra space.
