Step Your Camping Game (WAY) Up With The Redneck Sauna

There's a really simple way to make any camping spot pretty much the coolest and it's called the Redneck Sauna. No fancy cedar panelling and electric stoves needed here, this beauty is going to be built using materials found around pretty much any campsite. 

Car camping, up on a mountain, hell, you can make one of these in your backyard. Follow these simple instructions and revel in the magic of the best hangover killer you'll ever find yourself enjoying in the great outdoors.

Here we go…

Materials needed

– One large tarp

– some rope or another way to secore the tarp to some trees (nails work … hell, you can hang the thing over a big branch if you have to)

– Fire 

– 6-8 large rocks (preferrably smooth "river rocks")

– A bucket of water

Instructions

1. Secure tarp up in some trees to create your sauna area. The nicer a job you do here, the pimper your sauna will feel. You can go teepee style with a center pole, make a nice four-sided room between some trees. Whatever you want, creativity is your bitch on this step.

2. Build a nice fire somewhat close to your sauna. Not so close you're going to get smoked out but not too far for the next step.

3. Here's where the magic starts to happen. You're going to heat those rocks up in the fire until they're super red hot and then move them (just the rocks, not the fire!) inside the sauna, placing them in the middle or another safe spot.

4. Get the crew into the sauna and close that door securely

5. Pour water on the rocks and bask in the glory of all that is your Redneck Sauna

Sounds like bullshit? Trust me on this one, these puppies will get hotter than you could ever imagine and are just what the doctor ordered after a night of hard partying on the beach. 

So get out there and get your sweat on!
