camping

Looks like one of the other threads has some missing pics, no doubt from Photo Buckets move to charge members $400 a year to post on forums. After we got back from vacation up at Mount Rainier National Park the second week of August, I began the hunt for a smaller/lighter chuckbox. I did not...

Hello all, long time stalker, first time poster. I have this old trailer that I've had for the last 9 years. It is in need of an overhaul and I was thinking of making an expedition/camping rig out of it. The main purpose of this is to be able to bring my dirt bike along while camping. I'm...

Question for WA State Mudders. I plan to take my boys along with couple friends who drive their own trucks from out of town on a road trip and wondering if there are camp sites near by or within an off-roading trails you recommend.

If anyone is interested I'm planning on going out to JT Memorial Day Weekend. Planning on entering the park through Berdoo Canyon Saturday morning then heading out to the BLM area via Old Dale/Brooklyn Mine to camp. Memorial Day Weekend

Hey guys, I just wanted to get a thread started to arrange camping for CMCC this year. @Crusha reserved 8 tent spots and it looks like me, Bob and Chris have sites reserved out of those. Each site can have 2 trucks parked there but I assume folks with tow rigs will have to park in the field...

Do you prefer to experience the wilderness with all the comforts of home, or does your pioneer spirit win out and compel you to camp in a minimalist fashion? Personally, I camp in a whole bunch of different ways, from a glamping tent to a bedroll under the stars. When by myself in hot or...

Inspired by the Coleman thread, welcome to the vintage camping gear thread. The rules? There's just one rule - it has to be at least 30 years old, so manufactured on or before 25APR1987 ;) Show us what you got.

Alright, the time has come to go camping again. For reasons unknown to me, one of my friends really wants to go camping on the MS coast and I know nothing about that area. The only primitive camping spots I've come across is at Buccaneer state park. May not be that bad, the water park won't be...

The inflatable air pad market is huge, but really hard to find a perfect fit. I did. My interior dimensions are 49" X 72" and I didn't want to join two with a seam in the middle. Also, I am limited to 2" thick just because with bedding and all, that's all I can make work. So I found this on...

I know its last minute but If anyone is interested in camping around Asheville, I'll be there. I'm going to head to Black Mountain Campground tonight. My turkey hunting plans tomorrow have fallen through. The plan was to be away this weekend, so I still am. If I can pair up with some other...

i all, a couple o weeks ago I decided to refurb my trailer so thought id put a little thread up of my progress so far. I made this trailer nearly 8 years ago now, the plan was to have a built in tent, bed a proper camping unit, but instead its been abused as a general tip run, removal van...

I can't do the DV run but am interested in a day trip either Saturday, Sunday, or Monday or maybe a single overnight stay. Possible areas would be Borrego, Cleghorn, or Old Dale.

I can't imagine what this costs. If you have to ask, you can't afford it. They don't list prices on website, they have a form to fill out. BruderX is only 6"6" wide so it is more narrow for trail use. Maybe we should start a thread and post these exotic pieces of camping heaven. Certainly...

Ok, so there are a million ways to crash in the back of a land cruiser. But the trade off is always there. I've got a RTT, but I miss not being able to pack a canoe. The added height is a real issue on some trails. I built a wooden platform for a cot I have, but once it's in there it's a real...

Getting off the ground this year and need to purchase in 3 weeks. What are you guys using? Just interested in standard camping cots, not tent cots or RTT.

It's time to head up to Ouray again folks. Like previous years, the plan is to base camp out of 4J+j+1 CG based on the dates shown in the title. This is a family/dog friendly (dogs on leash inside the CG) event and everyone is welcome. You MUST have a 4x4 with low range capability. Even though...

If anyone is interested, my family and I are planning a camping trip to Vogel June 19th through the 22nd. This ended up being much later in the year than I anticipated, but we are going to combine our anniversary, camping trip and the triathlon at Callaway Gardens all into one trip. Our plan is...

FYI, if you take out the rear seat bottom, a cheap Walmart fullsize air mattress fits in the back almost perfectly. My wife and I used it for camping this weekend....worked out really nicely with some sheets to hang over the windows.

March 31-April 1. Horse Pasture Road We saw what looked like dispersed camp site on Horse Pasture Road. We also saw people heading in after dark with roof top tents and camping gear. So we figure it's allowed - but correction is appreciated. The plan is to head out on Friday afternoon, set...

I just got an email saying that the campsites are back open at Santee, in case anyone is interested!
