camping

Heya lovely folks, I'm living up in Nova Scotia, planning a road trip in my hatchback with my sweet puppy down through Maine to spend time in the Ashevile, NC, TN, VA, & Atlanta, GA areas. My trip is pretty flexible and I am primarily seeking to connect with like-minded individuals &...

Settled down for winter in KC but since the weather's been warming up here my cousin and I decided to do a short hop to a rural Kansas town to visit and crash with a friend. We set out late at night on a grainer and got off in Herington, KS during the CC to grab beer and a bite to eat. Ended up...

Recently just bought a hot tent. Guess I'm wondering if anyone else has tried them out

Is anyone else going to be at any of the amazing festivals around the east coast of Canada? Im volunteering at 2, staff at a 3rd and then partying way too hard at a 4th and maybe 5th one. Current plan is to be at Not So Thatch Vitality music festival Future Forest Raven Forest? Electric Pines

City of Grants Pass v Johnson Camping Ban (Laymen's Article) Huge loss of rights and safety for us houseless folks today. Of course, Grants Pass... This is probably going to set a precedent for the nation. Spread the word and stay safe out there, everybody.

I'm guessing all parks are different. I will be walking along highway 41 in southern Florida through the Big Cypress National Preserve. Haven't got my feet wet with stealth camping yet (but have some coming in the near future but not in national parks) and I'm sure it won't be my last national...

I live in the USA. I recently came into possession of this dutch military surplus backpack (pictures attached). Its comfortable, not too long on my body, room for my gear, etc. The only downside is that it is not discreet at all because its so large and it looks very 'military'. Ive been camping...

Camping Notes In my adult life I’ve hardly ever camped. Not never. The family would camp at state parks, as a kid, and on my grandparents forest property in Michigan I was exposed to the forest. But throughout high school I had less and less experience in the wild. Some of my former close...

I'm looking for any and all information about stealth camping on public land in the high sierra. Ideally in or around yosemite valley or high country. I know there are pretty strict regulations and permit processes about camping in the parks so I'd also appreciate any information about evading...

This weekend I went on a long desired train journey to the Swiss alps. This ride has taken me 13 hours. At first I went to Zurich to explore the city for the morning. I quickly came to realise that I preferred the actual mountains over the city much much more, so I took a train early to a...

I went in the corner of this parking lot and dug a hole in this snow mound and went to sleep I heard at least 30 gunshots so it got to cold to sleep so around 2 am I start walking and ask these 2 guys if they know a place that's open so I can get warm they were going to break into abounded...

Here's a story about a UK festival where the estimate (reddit) 60,000 tents and an estimated (reddit) 1 million pounds sterling of camping gear was left behind at the festival. https://thetab.com/uk/2021/08/31/tents-left-at-festivals-leeds-reading-creamfields-221131 If there isn't already an...

Hey guys, getting ready to hit the road again after almost 10 years away. I’m gonna be bike touring, stealth camping and busking. I was thinking I’d head to San Diego, or the surrounding area (la jolla, del mar Encinitas, Carlsbad) sometime this winter. Im wondering where the cool busking...

Does anyone know if it's legal to still camp on public and crown land in Ontario because of covid-19? I read awhile ago in March it was gonna be banned for abit, but I'm seeing online that public campgrounds/RV parking lots are still gonna rent it out to the public? I would like to do some...

I’m in LA staying at a hotel in Venice. Originally from around the Bay Area and I like to here more for staying outdoors as a temporary outdoor thing. Is it a good idea? Not as grungy as downtown and I came here for this type of thing but does anyone do it/have tried it or at similar places and...

So I’ve been drawing up the plan for years now and this summer I’m going to achieve the goal of making it down the Mississippi River in canoes. The plan has evolved and my girlfriend Destinee and I are gonna try something a little crazy. We want to convert back and forth between two canoes and a...

This is a long shot but I'm really up against it. Philly residents or folks who are familiar with the city...are there any good spots you know of either in squats or bandos where I could possibly find a little shelter from the elements without exposing myself to too many other people? I've been...

Does anyone know a good camping site around santa Barbara? Where I won't get hassled for sleeping or stabbed for my stuff? Lol

Covid got my old cycling & mechanic skill set back into action. I'm in a good place to prepare for a bike tour, so this isn't so much about the HOW or the WHERE, but the WHY. I'm in Miami and I have a place to stay until late January or early February. I've been giving serious consideration to...

I have a ton of ideas all the time of how to get around gear problems I encounter, or to just generally improve my current system that I dont see anywhere else on the internet. I intend to write guides for all of these in the near future. Problem is, writing these big long posts obviously...

Hi, im kay im 25 and i started travelking the uk doing live in work with an ex partner working in the catering industry, but the relationship broke down. Im looking to find artistic and musical people and a bit of adventre. I have heard of sites in bristol and squats and am thinking of heading...

Hey guys I'm in Covina (LA/SGV area) for the night and I can't find a spot to park overnight anywhere out here, I have to line up at the DMV at 5am so I really dont want to have to travel outside of Covina/West Covina. Anyone know about this area?

IF you are traveling across southern NY/PA border, be sure to check out the NY-DEC website list of numerous state forests. Most allow free camping up to 3 days with groups up to 10 persons. The DEC has state forests all over NY but there are 100s of them along the southern counties. List of...

I had a buddy complete the PCT last year in 2019(Goose trail name, for his laugh). He lives very similar to me...vegan, substance free, spends very little money(like $1,500/year), hasn't payed rent in like 5 years....basically the nomadic version of myself. Hearing his experiences of the...

Whatsup everyone. Let me start off saying I'm fairly unfamiliar with camping and such in general, only gone a handful of times. I'm from Northeastern Ohio; best places I've heard of being Hocking Hills if you're familiar with the area. Same time considering going camping at a local bike trail...

Hey there, anyone recommend a hot spring where we can camp nearby in new mexico. preferably a spot that doesnt usually get too crowded/rowdy. thx! cf

I know pickles suck. But i do like my pickle quite a lot. Im attached to it. I got an alice large with frame while i was working the past couple months. Objectively this would probably be the better bag and better for my back. Any thoughts?

Not sure if I should put this is squatting, orwilderness survival....it seemed better here. Hey all, I am creating this thread to see what people's experiences have been with the recent push by the Forest Service and BLM to limit 'Residential camping'. As I have noticed recently, the FS and...

Once my harvest season work is done here in the NE, it’ll be mid December and I’ll probably want to go somewhere warm as possible with my pay, maybe a car, definitely an instrument. I’m thinking about places in the SW , probably CA or AZ , that I either haven’t been to in a long time or didn’t...

So I’m about to move to Nashville, TN to work a job and I’m going to need a place to camp. I can get around on bike/bus, but I still need somewhere to stash my stuff during the day and sleep at night. Anybody have any advice?

Hey guys! I'm starting to plan a trip to South/Central America this winter, and I'd like you guys' input and experiences. I've been considering trying to spend as many nights as possible sleeping outside, on beaches and bushed areas, like I usually do when I travel, but I also know by...

I woke up. I heard voices. It was still pitch black outside so it had to be at least before 5am. I looked to the north and saw a flashlight scanning the trees a little ways up the path from us. The flashlight was getting closer. I didn't know what to make of it, I didn't know whether to wake up...

I got some cans of sparkling rose from the Joe's dumpster last night, so plus a couple. What should I see? Where's good to fly a sign? Any good feeds?

Is it possible without freezing to death? I was thinking about heading up that way in January from south Texas. I just know from prior experience of being homeless in New England around that time of year that it's pretty damn miserable and to be avoided if possible. i know the PNW doesnt get as...

So I'm casually considering dropping $$ to go to a concert in freaking Miami, or seeing if I can get hired on as concert staff / work-trade my way in, in part because it is so completely Unlike Things I Ever Do and it would be a novel experience, in part because no less than four artists/acts...

Hello there People! thanks so much if you decide to read this, as i need to know something to survive and stay warm in the bush with my fiance during the rest of october in northern ontario, canada. For the past 3 months, me and my bf have been sleeping in a tent in the bush ( cuz we are...

I want to have a general idea of guaranteed spots we can stay, that aren't far from the safe spots of New Orleans.

Providence, Ri. Behind the Jonhson and Wales University, Next to a generator. Riverwalk, three Light Poles with a gazebo nearby to chill and watch your property. 711 @ 720 Broad st, left side in front, don't spend too long there. Campsite, Woods by Old Bridge Trail. Marblehead, Ma. Donkin...

I am taking a few months off in a week to live out of my backpack and be with nature. I was thinking about the Sierras however Yosemite is on fire.... Where is the best spot you have ever camped?

I've heard all about how if you decide to go to the wild you should partner up with people to ensure survival which I totally agree with. If I were to do it alone, is there a place I can live nearby a town just in case I need outside help and would that be a good idea? I was wondering about...

Looking at going back to the Bay Area for a couple days later this year, everyone I know there has moved on and I'll have my camper (converted 4x4, so not as subtle as a van) with me. I usually try and avoid bigger cities by San Francisco is, among other things, a bit of a nostalgia trip for...

I recently started rubber tramping from hitching and hopping and well i remember one time being picked up and a girl had told me that she found an index or forum type thing, of travelers who compiled a list of free campgrounds, and what not throughout the US. I know i usually just pull off some...
