February 2, 2007
Boston, MA (PRWEB) February 2, 2007 – Camping is hugely popular activity, both for families that enjoy s’mores around the campfire and rugged outdoorsmen who push their camping equipment to the extreme. Sierra Trading Post selected LifeTips for content development services to share fun and valuable tips about camping locations, equipment, activities, safety and more with campers of all experience levels. Sierra Trading Post is now the exclusive sponsor of the Camping tip site in the LifeTips network.

"Few things connect people with Mother Earth like camping outdoors.
Before you pack up the kids and head to your favorite star gazing spot for a night under the open sky, take heed of our camping tips that will help any novice or experience camper prepare for your next camping trip," said Byron White, President of LifeTips.

Sample Camping Tip:
* Bear-Proof Your Campsite
"You need to take some precautions with your camping and hiking gear if you're camping in bear country. Bears have a tremendous sense of smell, and they are so strong they can rip out a car window or tear off a car door a lot easier than you might think.

Don't store any food inside your vehicle or tent. You need to use bear canisters, which are lightweight, durable plastic canisters that are virtually indestructible and bear-proof. Bears have learned how to get to food caches suspended from tree branches, so this old backpacker trick is no longer safe, either.

Most parks recommend these bear canisters for all food, and some even require them. If you're going camping in an area with bears, don't take any chances. Carry bear canisters, bear repellent, and watch out for bears near the campsites. Report them if you see them, and keep food prep to a minimum, too. Bears can be deadly, and they like human food, so take care not to feed the bears!"
