Camping Tip #4 - On the trail.
How to start a fire.
Your good looks may be enough to get things sizzling when out on the town, but, unfortunately, in the woods they don’t count for much. To start a real fire at a campground, look for a fire pit. Once you’ve found one, crumple the paper you brought into tight little balls and place them in the pit. Next, look around your site for dry branches and bark of different sizes. If you come across wood that is green, don’t use it—it won’t burn. Place small branches over the paper. Lay three to four branches one direction and then a few more in the other direction, making almost a little house on top of the paper. Light the paper and then let it burn a little bit. After the first pieces of wood start to burn, put bigger pieces on to keep it going. Be careful not to put big pieces on too quickly as they can smother the fire. Think about getting as much air through the pieces of wood as possible. To put it out, simply throw dirt on top of the burning embers. NEVER leave a campsite with a fire still burning.

Use this girl's guide to camping and you’ll not only camp in style, but you’ll have as much fun as you do shopping for a new pair of stilettos.
