How Many Years Have You Been Camping?

How many camping trips does it take to qualify a camper as being a veteran? When you feel comfortable in the outdoors doing the chores that camping entails, then you are a veteran. I've been tent camping since I was 11. That was a long time ago, and I still take several camping trips every year. I may be a vateran, but there are still things to learn and new places to visit. Every camping trip is a new adventure.
