There is always a first time for everyone to enjoy a great camping or hiking trip. Mountaineering has one goal which is to reach the next summit, or the top.
I'm one of those people who believe that if more people spent more time in nature, we would have many fewer problems in this world. Replacement bulbs are easily available on all websites selling flashlights. If you don't have to time to visit bookstores, there are an adequate number of online resources like this one where expert campers provide information on the popular locations, things to watch out for like wildlife and snakes, details of the weather and lots of other important beginner camping tips.
What you need to carry with you and the type of camping gear necessities you may need depends on the nature of the campsite, weather conditions, duration of the trip and how you are traveling as well. A good flashlight's size is relatively small and does not take up space at all. Battery powered lanterns tend to not work well in colder climates as the batteries tend to run down faster due to the cold.
For me, there is no drug that you can take, that will give you the incredible feeling of accomplishment that finishing a good hike gives you. Other necessities such as water and food for the trip are essential. You may need to find a dead tree, a piece of driftwood or a large chunk someone else had and couldn't cut up for firewood.
You should also develop a routine for keeping your feet dry and comfortable. Many people have come to love mountain climbing from complete obsession to fun hobby.
