Anyone can through everything they may need into a backpack, get in their car, and head to the woods for a bit of a commune with nature. However, if you want to have a truly epic outdoor adventure, and make sure all your friends are along for the ride, some careful planning is needed.

There’s no question that going on an outdoor adventure with your best friends can be fun, but this is only the case if you plan everything the right way. Keep reading for some helpful tips on how you can plan the perfect outdoor adventure that includes camping, kayaking, parasailing, flying, or anything else you can imagine.

Avoid the Dreaded Group Chat

When planning your adventure, it may be tempting to put everyone in a group chat and to start sharing ideas. However, this is one impulse that should be resisted. Even if you get everything decided in the chat, it may get lost among all the other chatter going on, leaving some things unknown.

A better option is to plan like a pro. There are apps available that will allow you to map out your entire trip, add different notes, and that give you the ability to share everything with your trip buddies. You can also create a group on Facebook, which is going to minimize the cutter on everyone’s walls.

Know the Essentials and Plan for the Unexpected

There are several clutch items that each person knows they need to bring along on a camping trip or outdoor adventure– water, food, a first aid kit, sleeping bag, flashlight, etc. However, even though these are “no-brainers,” there are some things that may slip under the radar.

These include things like a cooking set, biodegradable toilet paper, and coffee. As you are planning for your outdoor adventure, make sure everyone brainstorms any unexpected thing you may need to have in tow.

Choose Your Destination

Not everyone wants to spend their time outdoors in snow and slush. Others may not consider “roughing it” as a fun time. Take some time to choose a destination that works for everyone and that meets everyone’s needs and preferences. This is going to help ensure that everyone enjoys your epic outdoor adventure.

Establish Everyone’s Roles

Even if there is someone in your group that has a lot of camping and outdoor experience, it doesn’t mean the entire trip has to be based on what they say and think. Consider splitting up the tasks according to what everyone is good at. Choose someone to handle the cleanup, cooking, bonfire, and more. This will make everything go much more smoothly during the trip.

Anyone can have an amazing outdoor adventure, but to do this, proper planning is a must. Be sure to keep the information here in mind to ensure that the desired results are achieved. Being informed and knowing how to plan your epic adventure will pay off and make it the experience you have dreamed of.
