I am planning a cross country road trip for the summer with my broher from the Chicago suburbs to Yosemite National Park in California to visit my cousin. I will be 19, and my brother will be 17. We are responsible, and my parentals have already said it is alright, as long as we do all the planning, and all the funding. We need to do this as cheaply as possible. We will be gone about 2 weeks, including transportation to and from, and staying there. We will be camping both on the road and in the park. Does anyone have any extra tips for us to help this trip go smoothly?
Any input is great!
I don't have to worry about campsites in the park. My cousin works in the park, and since we're caming with him, we've already got sites in the park guaranteed. Does anyone know campgrounds on the road though, since we don't want to pay for motels?



Answer
Route:
I would suggest Interstate 80 for most of the westbound (and for the return EB portion) and then in Reno, Nevada, you would head south on route 395 and head into Yosemite via the back way. The drive south from Reno into Yosemite is particularly beautiful, and in fact, the drive west across 80 is fantastic.

Other tip:
There's an old saying: take half as many clothes and twice as much money. It's kinda true! Take as much money as you possibly can. (Or at least have it available from what you save up)

Camping:
I have a great book called "California Camping" by Foghorn Press that includes descriptions and reviews of EVERY campground in California. http://www.foghorn.com/ They make similar guides for other western states as well. And last time I checked on eBay, there were good deals available.

Camping in Yosemite: reservations open up I believe 5 (ish) months in advance and summer is definitely the busy season. Check out the Yosemite camping page http://www.nps.gov/archive/yose/trip/camping.htm and make your reservation as soon as it is possible, or you may not get one in the park!

Also, Yosemite is so beautiful that you can't really go wrong no matter where you stay. Valley floor campgrounds are a good jumping off point for anywhere you'll want to go. But be aware that the largest campgrounds do allow RVs and generators from 6am to 10pm, so if that machine noise would bug you, be sure to pick one of the smaller tent-only campgrounds...

Good luck and have fun! It'll be great! Hope this helps!

Is there some kind of Portable tent or sleeping bag for MHFU?

I've been wondering if there was some kind of portable tent or sleeping bag for MHFU(Monster Hunter Freedom Unite). I'm asking this because me and my brother both just recently got Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, and we've been looking to give the game a camping like feel. So a portable tent or some sleeping bags would help give it that feel.


Answer
There is no "sleeping bag" item in game- there would be no point to that really, as you can only go into the wilds during quests during the game, and each quest only lasts a maximum of 50 minutes (all of which should be spent actually fighting the monster).
Also I doubt that the game has any mods, as it is a psp game (or a vita game if you are playing it that way).
The game does have things like cooking spits (for roasting steak), but they become obsolete as soon as you get your first cat chef.
If you are asking if there are monster hunter real life sleeping bags- probably, but they are probably only in japan, so go on ebay or something and look.

Good luck and Happy Hunting
