More details?
Nah. If you're making coffee on the road, or at the campsite, there's no need to be precise. You can go full bougie café with precise measurements, scales, and titanium tasting spoons if you want. That's up to you. This recipe is for when you need coffee on the road. Now.

Ice Management Tip.
Snag free ice from your hotel or any convenience store. If you don't have a cooler, pack it in an insulated tumbler. You'll be surprised at just how long that ice can last. Plus, the AeroPress will perfectly sit on the mouth of most insulated tumblers.
