Who started camping

If you’re into camping, you don’t think about this much. Do you think of camping activities the same way as everyone else does? I’m sure there is a ton of variation. Today I was thinking about this. For example, some people think of camping as packing up a car and going to a camp ground. Others view camping as an activity where they are not near anyone else for miles and miles. Little kids might think of camping as going in the back yard with a tent. Are each of these wrong? I think they are all cool. The bottom line is that they get you outside. If you are interested, go to Caming Wiki I’m sure you will find a ton of interesting things here along with a bunch of definitions.
