To make a true camp for a mm,long hunter or anyone travaling on the frontier that was not wealthy or member of an army group on the move,would have sat on the ground or a log.With few exceptions chairs have no place in a civilian camp.But...most of us are older then the men found on the frontier 2 centuries ago.We are in camp as part of vacation.All our camps are a bit more posh then a real camp would be.When I'm treking Im minimalist.I'm a little looser in camp with a thicker bed and foood in a covered insulated bag.Right now I don't have a camp chair and am leaning toward making a folding stool. We do need to be forgiving here however and think about old backs and general achs and pains.The two piece camp chair used so often is not hc,but only slight less hc then an early stool design in a hunters camp.
