Fantastic Campgrounds & Where to Find Them #2

We took quite the hiatus between #1 and #2 but here we are!

I must admit it’s been a while since Volume I. Months, actually… Ok, a year. Long enough for you to forget you subscribed, or to assume I’d quietly abandoned the whole thing. If you were expecting a fast-follow series, well... better late than never.

But we’re back. And I’ve brought another destination worth packing up for. In fact, we’ve pulled together a whole batch to roll out this year drawn from our combined quarter-century of public lands experience. These campgrounds cover everything from national parks to national forests to BLM lands and beyond. You won’t see them advertised. You won’t find them trending. And that’s by design. The folks who know about them tend to keep quiet.

As a refresher, here’s what these sites are not. They’re not the campground equivalent of a Target parking lot with a view. Not the ones that require spreadsheets, lottery prayers, and booking six months out at 7:00:00 AM sharp!

These are the places you tell your close friends about but don’t post (unless you’re hiding them behind a paywalled Substack post). Places with strange names and quiet mornings. With creaky picnic tables and trails that look like they were cut by hand because they were. You won’t find cell service – well, actually, you will at this one. But you might also find dinosaur tracks. Literally. And if you’re lucky, you’ll get both solitude and a view.

So yes, it took us a while. But I think you’ll agree it was time well wasted.

Volume II starts now.
