when you camp with someone else, later on you can reminisce, 'hey remember this, or remember when that happened...' when your solo theres noone but nature to share the experience with. i like both ways.

So glad to see 'choice 2' winning. It's comforting to know there's nothing odd about my wanting to be alone.
When i get chance i take my dog and go on my own with her - she's quite happy on a blanket in the tent with me. If i have a GF then a few times they have come with me and the dog is then extradited to the awning of the tent... Which she is never too happy with.
Although the majority of mycamping is done with the scouts/explorers... So i put other...

I had robins on Skye but they weren't much in the way of talkers, quite tame though after a few days and would feed off your hand. That's about the only time I never truly feel alone is in the middle of nowhere, a must for people to do, solo adventures
Ever since I started having episodes of unexplained anafalactic shock I have backed off from going solo.
I would have to say my favorite person to take camping is my daughter. My brother is a close second. Both of them know what they are doing so I don't feel like I have to teach.

Good to see women involved in the outdoors. I'm hoping I can drag my daughter out of her 'townie' lifestyle as she loves the countryside but we'll see if she'll cope with the wilds far away from her wii, internet and mobile phone reception

Well, I was forced to say "girlfriend." He won't like that ::grin:: but there was no "boyfriend" choice!
Hi all,I have to camp alone and away from others,my spaniels haven't got it that their meant to relax,guarding the grub and me from the wildlife,but by being so selective where I sleep means I don't get disturbed by people,and all my friends think I'm mad
I've been solo camping and backpacking for 40 years. Camping with folks is ok once in awhile and almost every year I take some of my students camping but in general, I prefer going alone. To each his or her own.
Used to be alone, now it is with my pooch.
It's always an eye opener when I pop back on BCUK .... I'm glad to discover I'm not so weird after all !
I love solitude, to be honest, I prefer animals/trees to people most of the time!
I guess I got a problem! ........ Anyone know a good Psycho Therepist?

When you're on your own you are, at least, guaranteed intelligent conversation...
I'll get my coat.

Except that I can disagree with myself, and frequently do.

Wheres my therapists number .. fish!
I think am just a hermit at hart if I go camping with a group its just not the same, I did a lot of fox lamping in the highlands years ago. I have good night visions I never feel frightened of the dark, There is nothing in the dark that is there in the light as an old gamekeeper once told me well maybe a few poachers he laughed.
i had to vote other as there isnt an option for girlfriend and dog!
i would like to do a bit more solo camping but finding the time when my beloved isnt around is abit of a challenge

Only ever been with a group of friends recently though i've been really wanting to go on my own, no idea why but i just seem to be having that calling?
Think i will soon, im sure i'll be bricking it at first but once i realise its only nature i'll be fine. Tempted to take my dog but i dont want him to hurt himself when we are out there (burn himself/attack squirrel ect ha ha) hes a bit of a hyper dog as hes only a year old.
