From scorchers to soakers…
Ben and Lauren tackle a compilation of listener questions about camping through Australia’s wildly unpredictable conditions, from torrential downpours to sweltering heat waves. Our gear gurus share battle-tested tips for camping in the rain, decode mozzie and wildlife management strategies, and reveal the clothing and equipment choices that actually make a difference across different weather scenarios.
The conversation covers preparing gear for humid conditions, staying comfortable, and the practical wisdom that promises manageable adventures. Tune in for how to embrace the forecast on every outdoor adventure – because camping in less-than-perfect conditions is only half the Australian experience.
