Hi, have you been camping before? From prior experience, I know it's vital to have extra supplies for this trip. what are your thoughts?

Hello! I have camped before and am looking forward to our trip! 🙂 I really enjoy a good, hot cup of coffee and would like to be confident that we'll be able to have a roaring campfire with as much firewood as we can. What do you think we should be able to take with us?
mturk_agent_2
I too love a hot cocoa or tea, so we'll definitely need water, firewood is next up, and food is obvious 🙂 I think we can take as much as we are allowed. If you wanted, I could take all the food, we could split the water, and you could take all or most of the firewood?
mturk_agent_1
I must admit that I prefer coffee over tea, but agree we need a lot of firewood to heat it up. I'm not sure we would be able to find enough dry material to burn, so would appreciate all of the firewood. Thank you!  As for water - I would agree with splitting it if I could have 2 please? 🙂
mturk_agent_2
Am I to understand you want all of the firewood, and most of the water? That doesn't quite work for me, I would agree to all of the food, 1 of the waters if I could get one of the firewood? I will live without the extra cups of tea 🙂
mturk_agent_1
You are correct.  I do propose that I take 3 firewood and 2 water.  I you initially asked to take all of the food which I would be agreeable to, but because I would have to solely eat off of what I find.  Therefore I think I need extra water to cook/boil what I find. How am I supposed to stay hydrated while foraging, since I wouldn't have any food?
mturk_agent_2
I think it would be pointless to have food and nothing to drink. We should try and reach an amicable agreement tho, and based on our preferences being so similar, a rational split would seem most fair and favorable for the both of us. How about I take 2 food, 1 water, and 1 firewood?
mturk_agent_1
I think we are close to an agreement. Thank you for discussing this so openly!  Is your main objective to get at least 1 of each type of item?
mturk_agent_2
Yes it is, as I know one can't work without the other, especially out in the wilderness!
mturk_agent_1
I agree that they are all important. To help us both - what if you take 1 of each item and I carry the heavier weight of 2 of each?  That way you reach your goal of 1 of each item and don't have so much to lug around!  That would allow you to enjoy your camping trip so much better.
mturk_agent_2
As generous as that sounds, I don't feel that deal is fair at all. My goal isn't one of each, but being a frequent camper, I know what I personally need to be out in the woods. I can also carry a good amount of weight, I'm a strong girl 🙂
mturk_agent_1
I think we can agree on wood: you get 1, I get 2.  I think we can agree on food: you get 1, I get 2. Let's call those items as agreed upon.  We're down to negotiating on water I believe.  I'd hate for us to lose a great deal over 1 bottle of water. :( I really need 2 bottles of water please.
mturk_agent_2
I'd hate to leave the deal too, the best I can go for is 2 of the food, 1 of the water, and 1 of the firewood if you really need the water. I can't do anything on 1 of each, I want you to have your coffee, but I have to think about me too ☹️ I can do 2 food, 1 water, 1 firewood. I believe that covered your preference of more water and firewood in your first request? I thought you'd be happy with that compromise ☹️
mturk_agent_1
To confirm - you'll take 1 wood, 1 water, and 2 food?  I can agree to that.
mturk_agent_2
Yes, and thank you for being so kind, a real gentleman 🙂

In case it rains, or we have to abandon campsite in an emergency, backup is always useful.
You can never have enough water, from washing wounds, to extreme heat, to cleansing and drinking, you can never have enough water.
Emergency rations are of the most necessary components for a trip. If food is lost, damaged or stolen, if you are stuck out longer than expected, extra food is a must.

We can forage for food and find what we need from the land. We can survive for weeks without food.
Water is crucial for survival and would keep us hydrated.
Heat for cooking would help us have hot food, and light would let us see at night.
