We had to step on many thorns, logs and stones, but we arrived at the dream place…

#109 - William HibbardSomerset Airfield, Stratton, Vermont2018 RAM 35002022 Northern-Lite 10.2 EXCD LECamera Used - Canon EOS RP, 15-35mm f2.8 LensSuch a beautiful spot for boondocking and very dark skies. There were wide open spaces, fire rings and a pit toilet.The forest service allows you to stay for 14 days free. Our plan was to stay there for the 14 days. Little did we know that on our seventh day our world would end.The morning of our 7th day we decided to dump our tanks and get fresh water at Woodford State Park and then drive into Bennington for some provisions. Once we had our provisions we headed back to our campsite. While on RT 279 we were struck by a vehicle that crossed the center lane an hit us head on. It totaled our truck and camper and destroyed our dreams of touring the country. We were 16 months into this dream and have seen so many beautiful places. Unfortunately we did not have a plan “B”, naive to fact we may get in an accident. So for now we are thankful for having survived and taking life 1 day at a time.

#110 - Anne Marie LewisMt. Shuksan, North Cascades, Washington2013 GMC Sierra 35002013 Eagle Cap 850Camera Used - Canon 5D Mark iiWe were boondocking nearby and had driven up into the North Cascade Mountains each day for several days in July. It was very cold with deep snow lingering on our hiking trails at the higher elevations. Every time we drove by this lake, Mt. Shuksan was shrouded in clouds. But on the third day, a brief period of sun revealed Shuksan’s summit and the glaciers spilling down its flanks. I rushed to the opposite side of this small lake to get the shot.

#112 - Todd RothermelBlack Lake, Vail Pass, Colorado2023 Ford F3502020 Lance 1172Camera Used - iPhoneMy wife is the photographer in our marriage, I am the person who would rather just be in the moment. She would rather capture it. Just before I took the photo I got a text from the gentleman in Indiana that we had purchased the camper from several months ago. He had found some hardware and wanted to mail it to me here in Colorado. As part of the text he asked if we were enjoying the camper so at the spur of the moment I snapped the attached photo and sent it to him. I shared the text with my wife and she commented on the picture, so I thought I would share it with the rest of the truck camper crowd; as long as you share your favorite boondocking spot with us.

I have a 200 amp hour battery and 400 watts of solar on the roof. This campground was really shaded and it had rained for two days with no sun. I needed some sun so I decided to park here on this scenic turn off and catch some rays. I was drinking my coffee and thought I needed a picture of my rig.

I spent the last 18 months building this and had dreamed of this day for some time now. Blind Sucker is man made flood waters with excellent fishing. This state forest campground has no electric or flush toilets. It’s rural.

On the V-road, we drove successively through desert landscape similar the the Sahara. Then it felt like we were on Mars with the red rock formations and many gulches.

#123 - Will HoadCapitol Reef National Park2001 Ford F3501991 Skamper Pop UpCamera Used - iPhoneThis was midway through the Cathedral Valley Loop trail going in and out of Capitol Reef National Park. We had just passed through a snowstorm and and made it down switchbacks that had a bit more standing snow than we expected. After making it down and out of the storm this was a beautiful site to see.

#124 - Ben KirbyValley of the Gods, Utah2013 Ford F1502021 Outfitter Caribou LiteCamera Used - Sony A7IIIMy dog, Turbo and I had been on the road for over a month. We'd travelled up from Tucson, Arizona through Utah and eventually to Colorado. It was a glorious trip, filled with incredible mountain bike rides, glorious hikes and impactful memories with friends. But after a month we were exhausted. Or I should say I was exhausted. Turbo would spend all his days camping if he could. By the time we were back in southern Utah, I was ready to call it in and just get back to Tucson as quickly as we could, but I decided to include one last detour on the trip. I wanted to spend our last night on the road in a finale level campsite. So we made our way to the Valley of the Gods. And what a finale it was.Being July, it was 95 degrees when we pulled in. So Turbo and I waited in the camper with all the fans on until the relief of nightfall came. And when it did, we were greeted by a magnificent sunset in one of the most beautiful places I've ever stayed. I made sure to wake up before sunrise the next morning just to see it all over again. It just goes to show you that one last detour is always worth it.

#125 - John StefanoFlat River, Wyoming2019 Ford F2502021 Cirrus 820Camera Used - PhoneThe first place we boondocked was Flat river in Wyoming. My brother-in-law showed us the location. The stars at night are amazing!

On this beautiful day I saw a barge digging sand out from the entrance of bay and thought it was a cool picture of my old camper. It’s still making memories almost 40 years after it was made.

#127 - Nick GrayNaches, Washington1984 K5 Blazer1976 Chalet Camper made by Chinook for the K5Camera Used - iPhone 11 Pro MaxThis was my first trip up in the mountains with my K5 after doing a ton of work to it. It was able to handle a ton of 4 wheel drive trails and take me all over the mountain. I watched all the crazy built rigs crawl at funny/moon rocks up at Naches, Washington.

#128 - Nick GrayEaston, Washington2014 Ram 35001997 S&S 9.6 camperCamera Used - iPhone 11 Pro MaxThis was my first trip out with this truck to some property I have up in the mountains. Along the way I stopped in this tiny town and after walking out of a tiny Ma and Pop store I wanted to take a picture to look back on of the first time I used this set up.

We moved to the southside where very few people were. It ended up being a great spot, and we actually caught more fish.

#133 - Laura RomineBear Lake in Utah and Idaho2013 Ram 15002023 Tufport T76Camera Used - iPhone 14I took this photo at Bear Lake which is a lake half in Utah, half in Idaho. We were on our way back to California from the Tetons and were praying there would be a spot at this campground. It’s first come, first serve and we had a hell of a time trying to find camping in the Tetons and just wanted some peace. We were delighted there was almost no one there and we got a nice swim in the lake. We had also just gotten the camper and this was our first trip in it before building it out to live in full-time!

#133 - Laura Romine

#134 - Laura RomineBridger-Teton National Forest, Wyoming2013 Ram 15002023 Tufport T76Camera Used - iPhone 14This was our first night in our truck camper! We just got it installed in Salt Lake City after waiting months from ordering it. We drove up to the Tetons for a little trip before we had to head back to California. Free camping in the Tetons can be competitive because of the amount of visitors so we drove for quite some time past numerous spots that were taken before finding this gem tucked away. We actually ending up scratching the side of the camper a little bit (OOPS!) by some of the tree branches, but it was bound to happen eventually. We had a cozy night in our new camper and had fried ravioli for dinner.

#135 - Andrew ThomsonEast Kootenays, Alberta2011 Ford F-150Westland 80w customCamera Used - Samsung S21 PlusThis is a spot I love to visit in the shoulder seasons when it's quite not as important to be at a lake spot! This spot is only roughly 5 kilometers of backroad driving and a short, narrow 4x4 access to the river. It was during the first few days of the early wildfire crisis in Western Canada, which happened to make for a wonderful sunset.

#136 - Denise AntoshColumbia Icefields, Jasper, British Columbia2019 Ford F2502021 Northern Lite EXLECamera Used - Samsung Galaxy S22Driving through Jasper on this September long weekend making our way home to Manitoba after being away for a month. Everything was completely full and I remembered seeing a post of being able to stay at the Columbia Icefields in the parking lot. Sure enough we paid only $16.75 and stayed the night. It was amazing to see the Icefields at night and especially in the morning during sunrise. My husband and I travel with three dogs from rescue shelters. This was our first trip in our Northern Lite and absolutely loved it!

#137 - Louis GenestJasper, Alberta2017 Nissan Titan XD1992 Trav-L-MateCamera Used - Samsung Galaxy S10My camper was purchased for $600 in late 2021. It was in a completely unusable state with the intent of renovating it for family trips to the mountains. I fully rebuilt/renovated the inside and out in my spare time during the Covid lockdown. Our family of five (Mom/Dad + 7, 8, 10 year old) fit snugly but comfortably. This photo was taking during our first annual mountain trip; this year to Jasper, Alberta and Mount Robson, British Columbia.

#141 - Laura RomineGrand Teton National Park, Wyoming2013 Ram 15002023 Tufport T76Camera Used - iPhoneWe took our first trip in the camper right after we got it to Grand Teton National Park! This was my first time going and I wish we had more time. We just pulled off the main road for a quick photo of the truck with the Tetons in the background.

#142 - Justin TeagueMono County, Bridgeport, California2022 Chevy Silverado 35002008 Lance 951Camera Used - iPhone 12 proUnfortunately we were not able to go and camp as much as our family loves to over a summer. Work, crazy schedules got in the way. When we all finally had a free weekend we decided to hop in the truck and head over Highway 108 over the Sonora Pass. Once we were on the other side, we found this small USFS campground called Sonora Bridge Campground just off the highway.

#143 - Janis BullockClarks Fork of the Yellowstone River Canyon rim, Wyoming2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD2020 Northern Lite 8-11EXCamera Used - Samsung S10We were long distant backpackers for decades, and now in our 70s we bought a truck and camper so we could continue to access the remote, wild, off-road places that call to us. We found this small dirt road that parallels the canyon and decided to check it out, and found it was a perfect spot to camp for a few nights; quiet, remote, beautiful and no one else in sight! We spent our days wandering the rim of the canyon, and afterward were grateful to return to such luxury and a comfortable bed, not worrying about the grizzly bears who roam the land.

#144 - Janis BullockDeath Valley National Park, California2019 Chevy Silverado HD 35002020 Northern Lite 8-11EXCamera Used - Samsung S10We often travel to Death Valley National Park in the winter for a change scenery from the long winters in the Rocky Mountains. Death Valley is the largest, driest, lowest and hottest national park in the US and we are drawn to the vast landscapes and geology, and its rugged, stark beauty. We seek out the few places where dispersed camping is allowed and wander the canyons and mountains where few people go. At night we sit alongside the camper and gaze at one of the darkest and largest night skies in the US. When we are tired we retreat into our cozy, comfortable camper. We are grateful that our truck/camper can get us into such magnificent locations.

#148 - Gerald KyddAbraham Lake, Alberta2022 Ford F3501996 Northern Lite 8.5Camera Used - iPhone 8Returning from a trip in the British Columbia interior, we stopped for a couple of nights at one of our favorite boondocking locations on the shores of Abraham Lake. The lake rises and falls 100 feet over the season and our preferred location at Preachers Point was not yet flooded so we moved up the lake closer to where we could see the water and found this hard to access spot up on a hill. It took some work to get reasonably level including a large stepping stone for the foot of the steps. Our rig “La Tortuga” is all about being able to take our dog on our adventures unhindered by any accommodation restrictions.

#149 - Matt WyattAlabama Hills, California2023 Silverado2022 Phoenix Pop Up Level 2Camera Used - iPhone 14 ProIt was our first trip of the warm season. We wanted to go somewhere somewhat close but away from the people of the city, so we picked the Alabama Hills off the 395. So much to see and do on that stretch of highway. Anyway, we drove around the area for a little while before finding the perfect spot. With a nice view of Mt. Whitney, we decided to call this spot home for the night. My girlfriend and I decided to go for a walk/hike/climb up the rock outcroppings so we could get a good lay of the land, and let me tell you, it was a view to behold. This picture has all of my favorite elements…desert, the Sierras, open landscapes and some clouds. I can’t wait to go back and catch the Alabamas with a little bit of snow on them this winter.

#156 - Scott HannafordArco, Idaho2018 Ram 25002021 Adventurer 89RBSCamera Used - Panasonic LumixThis sub sail is the preserved sail of the submarine USS Hawkbill. After being decommissioned in 2000, the monument was placed in the roadside Idaho Science Center to honor Arco’s long association with the Navy and the nuclear fleet in particular. Specifically, for just 60 minutes on July 17, 1955, Arco was the first city on Earth to be lit solely by nuclear electricity, thanks to the BORAX-III reactor at the Idaho National Laboratory (then called the National Reactor Testing Station). There is a museum there called ERB-1 great place to see. Lots of history there. We wanted to see Craters of the Moon and we were able to stop and see this monument and museum also. Lots of history here for naval buffs.

#157 - Zachary RobinsonBonneville Salt Flats, Utah1997 Ford F3501997 Bigfoot 2500 9.6BCamera Used - PhoneAfter exploring the Dinosaur National Monument on the Utah/Colorado border we drove west (on our way back to Oregon) and ended up staying on BLM land bordering the western edge of the Bonneville Salt Flats. Whenever possible, we boondock and rarely stay in a campground. Upon arrival we had 50+ mph winds coming from the north so I oriented the truck to face into the wind so it wouldn't rock side to side. After enjoying my daughter’s favorite camping dinner (grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup) we went outside to watch the thunderstorms coming in from the west. I grabbed a few photos of the camper. Luckily the storms passed us to the south so we were able to enjoy the view without being blasted with lightning.

We now call this camper home after living in it for five months. This photo came after four days of continuous rain in Nova Scotia. Although we missed seeing the scenery in the sun, if anything, the rain made it more spectacular! But what was even more spectacular was that the inside of the camper stayed dry. Bring on the winter!

Also, it’s the first camping trip for more than a weekend with this new-to-me camper and first time towing the boat with the camper. I made a few modifications to the truck with 7500 pound airbags, an HD rear sway bar, and a hitch extension. This was my maiden voyage and everything went fantastic. We are very happy to be joining the truck camper family and am looking forward to many more adventures.

#170 - Hugh RedmonBooger Red Hill, Colorado2007 Ford F3502012 Lance 850Camera Used - PhoneThis spot is one of my favorite free camping spots in Colorado. I've been there many times before. The scenery is amazing and there are campsites right on the edge of a hill that overlook a meadow with Booger Red Hill in the background. There is a really excellent hike to the top of the hill and great views of the surrounding area.I came across this campsite while researching free campsites on the internet. I knew that it was the perfect place for my truck camper because no travel trailer or fifth wheel can access it. You definitely need four wheel drive and when it rains, the rangers will close the gate to prevent access. It gets very slippery and muddy up there so check the weather before you attempt it.

#172 - George DuncanGoblin Valley, UtahFord F1502023 Four Wheel Camper HawkCamera Used - Oneplus 6T cellphoneWe were visiting Goblin Valley in Southern Utah, enjoying the incredible hoodoos and the valley in its entirety. It was a nice sunny day when we arrived, but the weather started turning. We realized that a rain storm was blowing in quite quickly, and we had not secured a campsite yet for the night. While we ran for our vehicle and hurried to leave the park, the wind picked up to a pretty good intensity. Looking over the maps, we decided to check out Temple Mountain area hoping to at least get out of the wind. Upon arriving at the campground, it seemed to be a little sheltered from the bulk of the wind so we set up camp for the night. After helping a couple kids who pulled in to the side of us to start a fire, I noticed how ominous the clouds looked with a light window back over Goblin Valley Park. I think the photo shows it quite nicely. The storm passed after a bit, and we enjoyed a nice evening while planning the next days' adventure.

Post pandemic, securing a campsite was a bit of a feat, but with some perseverance after a few days we secured one for the upcoming July new moon. Born and raised in Idaho, I had somehow never been to this area. As we dropped down into the valley, we were blown away with the incredible beauty of the Sawtooth Peaks, the Salmon River, and the incredible vistas. Right before we got to the turnoff to the campground, I found this pullout and grabbed a few photos. We enjoyed a week in this beautiful area, camping in several different locations in the area.

#174 - George DuncanLong Canyon, Burr Trail, Utah2019 Ford F1502023 Four Wheel Camper HawkCamera Used - Oneplus 6THaving recently retired, we had planned on spending several weeks visiting the beautiful state of Utah. Unfortunately, due to the incredible amount of rain and snow Utah had received, we were unable to visit several of our planned areas in north and central Utah. However, the weather was nice in the southern part of the state, and we spent about four weeks visiting several incredible areas. We feel it would take several months to see all that Southern Utah has to offer. There are so many incredible landscapes to take in!While camping around the Escalante Grand Staircase area, we decided to drive the Burr Trail from Boulder down through Long Canyon and over the Burr Trail Switchbacks. One of the highlights of the drive, Long Canyon, was incredibly beautiful, and without many other visitors as well. At the east end of Long Canyon was the Overlook, looking toward Capitol Reef. We stopped to take in the sweeping vista before us, and snapped this photo of the rocky ridgeline above the canyon entrance. The drive onward down the switchbacks and back up to Capitol Reef was very long, and rough, but well worth the day spent driving it!

#175 - Dana HarrisonValley of the Gods, Utah2009 Ford F250 2021 Four Wheel Camper HawkCamera Used - Canon Mark IV, fixed 35mm lensWe left Paonia, Colorado that morning with my daughter, her boyfriend, and their dog following along in her little Ford Escape. Pulling into Hanksville, Utah, the air conditioner in my 2009 F250 died, and it was 103 degrees outside! After a hot and slow drive down to the Valley of the Gods turnoff because of road work, we finally were able to start looking for a campsite. We found one about 1/3 of the way through the loop about 250 yards to the west off the main road. We set up, got the Honda generator going so we could use the air conditioner in the camper, and began to settle into the evening. As the sun started to approach the horizon in the west, the light was spectacular, and I took some shots. We crammed four adults and the dog into the camper that night as it was too hot to have them sleep in the Escape!
