Darick,
If a person is very selective in his/her camping equipment, it's not
really a problem. I have a 3 person tent (bigger than necessary, but
nice to have some extra room) that I put in front of the seat so it is
below my knees when I fly, a fairly small Holofil sleeping bag (I think
5 lbs.) and my passenger also has one similar, we each have a self
inflating air mattress, and then we each have a small duffle bag
containing our extra clothes and shower stuff. We plan to wash clothes
about half way through the trip. I have a small digital camera, shaver
and jacket. Of course, I carry charts and GPS and always travel with an
emergency survival kit containing fire starting stuff, hunting knife, CD
for signaling, and a lot of other small items. It all fits if you pack
right. I weigh 165 and my cousin Brad, who usually comes with me to Sun
N Fun and other fly-ins weighs about 150. Not a problem.

Folks,
In years past, I've done some camping. Now considering the space
in an Ercoupe and the required gear for camping for a week, how do you
guys do it? Reminds me of that poem about a fellow who owned a
little red Austin.
