There should be an overall leader who captains the trip, with mutual understanding and cooperation the work should be then distributed to each member who would be in charge to further delegate or complete the given responsibility to the best of his or her ability.

The person in charge of his responsibility should see that all requirements needed for his department are well stocked up, be it in the arena of installing camps that require, tents, installing tools and equipment, or cooking that would require ingredients, cooking gear and service dishes. Similarly the person handling the transport and driving should be able to foresee and be ready for any eventualities. Each group member should have requisite supplies of personal requirements and clothes. Winters or cold conditions need bonfires, blankets etc., and it would be a plus point to stock up on these supplies too. If going by road or your own trailer the over overhauling of the vehicle should not be overlooked! You would also need to store on fuel, tools, and extra parts of the vehicle that can be replaced easily.

It is always advisable to get all your equipment from a store that deals in supplying camping gears, for they would have professionally, trained representatives that would guide you towards your purchases based on your requirements.. A fun trip is incomplete without music; therefore a good collection of everyone’s favorite music should be included for those long drives.
