#001 - Bob HamptonBig Cypress Swamp, Florida2013 Ford F3502010 Arctic Fox 990Camera Used - DJI Mavic Pro 2This photo was taken during my February 2019 tour of southern Florida parks and preserves.  My goal was to capture unique images featuring the vast landscapes of the Big Cypress National Preserve, Everglades National Park, and nearby state parks.  My usual photographic gear is a Canon7D, however I added a DJI Mavic drone prior to this trip.  I have had a great time capturing unique views and using the drone to scout ahead traveling back-country trails.

#008 - Joan ThompsonEcho Amphitheater on Highway 84 in north central New Mexico2011 GMC Sierra 3500HD2013 Lance 1191Camera Used - Samsung S7 EdgeThroughout our seven weeks of travels this winter - a loop from Wisconsin to Southern California and back - we kept getting lucky with campgrounds.  Even in Arizona during spring break, we would pull in to forest service campgrounds and get the last available site.We ended up at this spot in northern New Mexico on the way home in early April.  This was the best of all of them because we got the last site, which was the best one.  And the fee for the site was just one dollar!I knew the morning sun would light up the red cliffs behind us when it first came up.  So I was out there, bundled up in my down coat, to catch it.  The day concluded at Ouray, Colorado after a drive through Durango and over Molas Pass. My husband had been wanting to take me on that road ever since we've been married (37+ years) and now I know why!  When I look at this photo, I am amazed at the contrasts - from the red rock canyons at first light to the avalanche chutes along the winding mountain road in the afternoon.  It was all in one day!

#009 - Rainer MuellerRed Rock Canyon State Park, California2015 Ford F-3502017 Host MammothCamera Used - iPhone 7 PlusI have lived and camped in California for almost 50 years.  I had driven right past this state park a couple of times, but never pulled in because of it being either too hot or too crowded.  But this time was special because it was late summer, and my birthday. When my wife and I arrived we discovered that we were the only campers in the park!  We had our pick of spots and. of course, I picked the best one.  Setting up camp with a truck camper is mighty easy when you don't have to put down all the jacks.  Within minutes I grabbed an adult libation, fired up a drone and got some great scenery videos.  The next morning I grabbed my iPhone and captured a few shots of the rig before we headed to the Kern River for more adventures.  I'm just a happy camper.

#012 - Douglas DonatoN. Fork of Robbers Roost Canyon, Utah2007 Toyota Tacoma2011 Four Wheel FleetCamera Used - LG V40 ThinQ phoneWe drove from home in Lakewood, Colorado (April 2019) to the Green River, Utah.  Then we went south on Highway 24 to just past the Goblin Valley turnoff.  Then we went east down a dirt road and split south onto a minor four wheel drive road to this beautiful spot at the top of the North Fork of Robber's Roost Canyon.The picture was taken at sunset on the first night.  We were all alone the four days we were there.  We did a technical canyoneering trip down the canyon the first day.  The second day we took a 3-day backpack to the Dirty Devil River and the main Robbers Roost Canyon before returning to camp and moving on to Red Rocks Nevada outside of Las Vegas for five days of rock climbing.

I am from British Columbia.  When I traveled through Montana and the upper part of Idaho, I wanted to visit the Sinlahekin Wildlife Area because I am very interested in bird and wildlife photography.  However, I got to the spot too late for photography.  So I had to find a place to camp.I drove by this spot at Fish Lake. There was a small campground maintained by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife.  A short drive down a gravel road and I was parked all by myself.   I have done star and Milky Way photography in the past, but I decided to include my Adventurer camper in the shot.  ISO 6400 with my Nikkor 16-35mm lens wide open at f4.0 for 30 seconds usually works, and it did on this occasion as well.

Suddenly, a thunderstorm rolled in with violent winds.  We hustled to get the camper popped down, which is not an easy task when it's windy!  Then we huddled inside to ride out the storm.  Suddenly, the winds, rain and thunder stopped.  We looked out of the camper’s window to discover the most beautiful sight - a double full rainbow panorama in front of the White Mountains.  We realized the lesson here: you have to ride out the storm if you want the rainbow!

I had planned and reserved campsites in Florida.  Escribano Point is on the west side of East Bay which is the western boundary of Pensacola.We were there the week of the polar vortex and temperatures were quite cold for Florida (below freezing on several nights). As such, we pretty much had the place to ourselves every day although campers would come in late evening and leave early in the morning. It is one of the most beautiful free campsites found in the southeast. No hook-ups, but there are trash receptacles and a porta-John.

I made an awning buy using two flag pole holders and 1/2 inch PVC pipes.  I also added extra electrical wall heater to a factory gas heater and a Buddy heater, car stereo, portable TV with DVD player and other minor upgrades.  From April 14th to 17th, I camped three nights at Zion National Park South Campground.  My truck camper is probably the most ugly one in the campground; however, the background in the memorable photo is so beautiful.  Functionally, I like my truck camper a lot.  One of these days I would like to replace to something better.

We spent the night on a elevated point overlooking Berlin Canyon, which is above the ghost town of Berlin, Nevada.  We were the only ones there all day.We arrived at our campsite at sunset and discovered that I had thrown away my only leaking plastic quart of oil and had not replaced it.  The portable generator was low on oil and the low-oil-safety cut-off switch prevented the unit from starting.  Along with that, the camper’s batteries were low and I didn't want to run them empty using the on-board heater. I  had one portable green propane bottle to run the generator in the morning.We spent the 17-degree night bundled up under a ton of blankets waiting for the sun to rise. We proceeded up West Union Canyon in four-wheel drive until we had to turn around. This photo captures us on the way out back down to the floor of the valley.  We drove 60 miles on a dirt road back to the blacktop.

This unique landscape isn't the easiest location to find, and you'll have to drive up to 48 miles on a gravel road to accomplish this feat.  But, it is definitely worth it.I didn't camp here because of the threatening storm clouds which will turn this parched landscape into a truck swallowing mass of muck that may be difficult to escape from without expensive towing, which may take days to arrive.

Little did she know I was searching for some dangerous trails along our route.  As we were passing though Colorado I heard about Black Bear Pass and its reputation.Curious to put the truck and camper to the real test I decided that this pass will be the one.  The camper raised the sketch factor quite a bit with the higher center of gravity and the extra 1,200 pounds of payload.  But the little Tacoma handled it with ease.  On the other hand, the two of us were doubting our abilities to safely finish.  We were excited, nervous and a bit scared.  We may have just been the first truck camper to complete the infamous Black Bear Pass.  There was only one thing we could do afterwards; grab some craft beer!

We went on a weekend trip to the shore and found Topsail Beach, so we stayed the night there.  The photo was a sunrise shot; a spur of the moment type of thing.

I wanted to get a picture of it in the spring.  On our week vacation camping around Gaspé we made a stop to take a photo along our journey.  It is on the north shore of Highway 132 alongside the gulf of the St Lawrence. Beautiful peaceful travels.

#087 - Keith LavalleeGaspé, Quebec2017 Chevy 25002011 Lance 850Camera Used - iPhone 8 PlusA week vacation along the coast on Highway 132 in Gaspé gave us multiple stops with amazing scenery.  There were many photo opportunities along the way with breathtaking views of mountains that drop along side of the highway and are bordered with the Gulf of the St Lawrence on the opposite side.  Many lighthouses line the rock face shorelines.  They will make you want to stop every 100 kilometers to take in there welcoming glow whether it’s day or night.  This is a truck camper must vacation for everyone.

We took off on dirt roads to find a nice primitive spot outside the park.  This location on the banks of the Little Colorado River was perfect. We had it to ourselves and that evening's sunset was amazing.

#093 - Eddie FortNear Ouray, Colorado2016 Ford F-3502016 Hallmark EverestCamera Used - iPhoneWe drove out to Colorado from Virginia in the hopes of doing some of the high mountain trails, but the heavy winter snows had kept them impassible. In talking to a Ranger he mentioned that Hurricane Pass had just been opened but that it was very muddy and wet with all the snow melting.  We decided to give it a try and succeeded.  This picture was taken about a quarter-mile from the top.  You should have seen the looks on the faces of the Jeep Owners as we reached the summit!

#094 - Jacob BrokkeColorado1996 Ford Bronco1996 Lite CraftCamera Used - iPhone 6sWe picked up this 22 year old Ford Bronco truck camper in Boulder, Colorado.  On the way home to Texas we were blessed with this great first picture of our new rig.  As a longtime Ford Bronco lover I could not believe my eyes when I first saw this truck.  I had to have it.  It’s the best thing I ever did.  It has already given us some beautiful memories and will continue to do so as we travel in it across the country.  I believe this photo shows it in all its glory with a rainbow blessing.

It's just a random patch of BLM land in south-central Montana.  Being able to camp in spots like this is exactly why we went back to a truck camper after a couple of trailers.

Dugway is a term used to describe a roadway carved from a hillside.The Moki Dugway is a staggering, graded dirt switchback road carved into the face of the cliff edge of Cedar Mesa.  It consists of three miles of steep, unpaved, but well-graded switchbacks (11% grade), which wind 1,200 feet from Cedar Mesa to the valley floor near Valley of the Gods.  This route provides breathtaking views of some of Utah’s most beautiful sites.  Scenic views of Valley of the Gods and distant Monument valley open at every turn of the dugway.The Moki Dugway was constructed in the 1950s provide a way to haul ore from the Happy Jack Mine on Cedar Mesa to the mill in Halchita, near Mexican Hat.The State of Utah recommends that only vehicles less than 28 feet and 10,000 pounds attempt to negotiate the dugway.

We entered the Swell on the road just north of Goblin Valley State Park and started to wander around looking for a spot to camp.  We passed many sites on the easier roads that were all occupied.We stopped and talked to a dirt biker that had just pulled into his camp.  He said that if we headed up the four wheel drive trail up ahead there was no one up there.  That worked out well and we had a nice site up high with a great view and no one around.  We explored the area further on foot and took this shot as the sun was setting over the valley.

We’re high class ski bums; first ones up the hill, last ones off.  There are no hot tubs or five star dining options here.  Chilly stormy nights and mornings spent brushing a few feet of snow off the roof quickly became the norm.
