I'm planing to go on a camping trip by myself in a couple of months. What should I bring and what can I expect?
Been camping every year for a month since I was 15 but never alone thus I have some experience...

Bring the same things you bring when you camp with others. Bring a smaller tent. Bring less food. If safety is your concern, consider getting a PLB.

Tell someone where you're going and how long you'll be gone for. First essential for going it alone, make sure you don't fuck yourself over if something happens.

Personal Locator Beacon. They can broadcast your location or even short text messages to SAR/loved ones/whatever.

The reality is that you'll never be too far from civilization in the continental united states.

There are always loggers, miners, or just repeaters.

Utilize resources wisely. radios can give you emergency weather bulletins, which, can help you prepare for potentially life-threatening situations. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Yeah, maybe in the cramped Northeast. Out west and in the South there are lots of areas that are remote and far away from from civilization.

Alaska is continental, but it isn't contiguous.
