Tent Camping at FW vs Elsewhere

[va32h]

In sorting through our camping gear, I think that a lot of the stuff we usually bring won't be needed at FW.

Water jugs - we'll have spigot right there, so I guess we just bring a hose instead?

Propane stove & lanterns - we'll have electricity, so we could just bring a hot plate or single burner and an ordinary lamp?

Cooler - again, with electricity, we could just bring our 1.8cf mini fridge.

Just about all my camp cooking equipment - since a lot of it is for campfire cooking and we can't have our own fires. I guess we'll barbecue a lot, but I will miss my campfire biscuits!

We have an outdoor shower and porta-potty; with the comfort stations so close by (and it being November when we camp) I was going to skip the shower, but I might bring the potty anyway, for those times when nature calls late at night.

I would love to see some pictures of how tent campers have set up their sites.

We have a bin with "regular" camping stuff, and a bin for FW camping!

For electrical appliances, we usually bring a hot plate, coffee maker, electric frying pan/griddle, and crockpot.

We also don't bring sleeping bags, but use regular sheets and blankets on the air mattress. We have a fan and/or small heater in there too, that's plugged in with a long extention cord.

I don't have a picture, but we have our tent set up on one side of the pad, and a screen tent set up on the other side, by the electrical outlets, with the picnic table inside.

Here is a picture from Tims site of a setup that takes advantage of the extras that you can bring to an electric tent site.
