I’ve read enough to know I like this young man already. You’re new here and most know I work with teens for a living. Have a great camping trip. Start an outdoorsman club or something similar at school and get others to join and talk about some good stuff besides all the “crap” in the world that you mentioned.

If I went to school I would! I love the outdoors and I want to take people out! And by “crap” I meant covid, the election, blm I’m sick of hearing it no doubt it’s important to us as Americans I just can’t stand the bickering.

Paper towels and paper plates. Burn them the fire when done. Get an old milk crate and cut a hole in the top and get an old toilet lid and us it over your crapper hole you've dug in the ground. A private place of course. Might even dig a hole or pit for the fire and bury the ashes when finished. If it's granny's land, go before the camping date and do some preliminary work: finding the spot (shade maybe), digging holes, maybe even weedeating out a big spot for your tent and where you'll be hanging out. Always spray permethrin on your clothes and stuff against ticks and chiggers. Take a cheap Bic razor or two in case you get seed ticks on you and shave your legs or arms to get them right off. I know it sounds girly but it works wonders. Done it many times and the hair grows back quicker than you think. Again, lots of water, toilet paper and use those tarps under and over your tent. The guys on here know about heavy June rain and how bad a camping trip can be soaked.
Maybe google some primitive camping setups and get some tips and ideas from them. Be as comfortable as possible also. Sounds like you're well on your way already.
I hope you all have a great and safe time making lasting memories.

Says your 15. Welcome. Three teens? Get rid of electronics. Maybe a nice a young lady to snuggle by the fire? But be gentlemen! If it’s dudes only get some hiking in. Anywhere to fish? Any drivers in the crew? What part of the state? Have fun. You never forget stuff like this.
Huh. 15 years old. No ladies there compadre. Lololololol.
I’m looking at it from a dads point of view though. Not when I was 15. :D:p

That bites! Those ego feeders are out there along with a whole assortment of other types until they grow up. Sounds like you value yourself as well you should so be very selective when you decide to take the plunge. Be picky as a trout! Ha!
