What do you love - or hate - about camping?

On Cross Country Checkup: Don't forget the bug spray!
 
There's something quintessentially Canadian about portaging canoes and pitching tents.
But it ain't always easy. What do you love - or hate - about camping?
 
Do you have a favourite wilderness camping spot? Is there a piece of camping gear you won't leave home without? If you're a kid, do you get dragged along on a camping trip... or do you embrace the experience, mosquitoes and all?
 
Whether your style is hooking up the RV or backpacking into the wilderness, we want to hear your stories about the best and worst of living where the wild things are.
 
With guest host Kevin Sylvester, Sunday on Cross Country Checkup.
