#401 - Erik JohnsonToponas, Colorado2009 GMC Sierra 25002026 Four Wheel Campers HawkCamera Used - Nikon Z8I captured this photo during a vibrant northern lights display on July 3rd while camping beside an old log barn on a private ranch near Toponas, Colorado. The natural light show rivaled any fireworks display! I used a Nikon Z8 camera and tripod to capture the photo, and a drone to illuminate the ground below.

#402 - Thomas TullyMonache Meadows, California2021 Ford F-1502025 Four Wheel Campers RavenCamera Used - Samsung Galaxy S24This was our second time using the truck and camper, and honestly, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.I had installed every modification myself, right there in the driveway. Nothing had been tested, and I had no idea how the added weight of the camper would change the way the truck handled or performed off-road.

#403 - Ian GardnerMount Washburn, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming1995 Ford F-2501973 BellCamera Used - iPhone 15This is our very first camper as a family. We bought it for $500 four months before the photo was taken.

#404 - Thomas TullyBryce Canyon, Utah2021 Ford F-1502025 Four Wheel Campers RavenCamera Used - Samsung Galaxy S24At 9,500 feet above sea level, overlooking the beautiful colors of Bryce Canyon, Utah.There's nothing more peaceful in life than being in the middle of nowhere, camping on the edge of a cliff, surrounded by nothing but open country, and watching the little one who means the most to you playing in the dirt with his tractors.These are the moments I'll remember forever.

#407 - Joe BrommScreaming Eagle Campground, Ocean City, Washington2018 Ford F-3502014 Arctic Fox 992Camera Used - Samsung Galaxy S23 UltraCamping to me is about family. Growing up, my parents had a truck camper to get us kids out camping. It brought us closer and taught my brother, sister, and me how to experience America a little piece at a time.Of course, my happiest childhood memories of camping always involved making new friends. Now I see my own kids playing with other kids and making the same memories. My kids still trade letters and messages halfway across the country with other kids they met around the campsite.

#409 - Matt NelsonAlabama Hills, Lone Pine, California2017 RAM 35002007 Arctic Fox 990Camera Used - Sony Alpha 7 IIIAlabama Hills is one of my favorite, not-so-secret dispersed camping spots! I got up early for sunrise to take this picture in this incredibly scenic location, with the Sierra Nevada mountains and piles of eroded sandstone rocks in the background.

#410 - Matt NelsonValley of the Gods, Utah2017 RAM 35002007 Arctic Fox 990Camera Used - Google PixelValley of the Gods, Utah, is about as iconic a Western desert landscape as you can find. Lots of old Western movies and TV shows were filmed here.On this morning, I got up to take some sunrise pictures of the rocks glowing during golden hour. It just happened that some hot air balloons were setting up along the road behind me. I only had to wait a few minutes for the balloons to take off and fly into the frame. This one turned out the best that morning.

#411 - Matt NelsonDalton Highway, Alaska2017 RAM 35002007 Arctic Fox 990Camera Used - UnknownI drove the famous Dalton Highway to Prudhoe Bay in Alaska and got the mud coating to prove it! Alaska was an incredible road trip. This was one of my favorite pictures along the journey.

I looked up at the sky and decided it would make a great shot!Alamo Lake is a beautiful area with herds of wild donkeys. It was our first time there. We camp about once a month, trying a new area each time.We had a 41-foot motorhome, and my husband, who is a professional driver, did not like it! Our very first RV was a Lance camper back in 1992. I guess you could say we went back to the basics with another Lance camper, and we are loving it! We can go anywhere with this setup!

#415 - Christy Eimen

#416 - Maxim BethuremCrested Butte, Colorado2017 Toyota Tacoma2025 Tune Outdoor M1LCamera Used - Canon EOS R5This photo was taken at one of my all-time favorite campsites. It's such a serene setting. The twin waterfalls can be seen from the campfire, and the sound of the water is incredibly soothing. The trees form the most beautiful meadow, and mountain ridges wrap all around you.When I need a reset from the busyness of life, this place is my go-to. It has incredible hikes nearby that take you to alpine lakes, rock gardens full of geodes, alpine meadows, and ridge climbs to nearby 13,000-foot peaks.It's a magical setting that inspires wonder and a deep appreciation for nature.

#417 - Jennifer ZastudilWeed, California2020 RAM 35002020 Capri RetreatCamera Used - iPhone 11 Pro MaxThis photo was taken in Weed, California. I was making my way back to Oregon and stopped in the cute little town to explore. I came across this photo opportunity.

We affectionately call the entire rig

#422 - Lisa McGeeWood Islands, Prince Edward Island, Canada2021 RAM 35002021 Lance 1172Camera Used - iPhoneThis picture was taken at the Wood Islands Lighthouse at the Wood Islands ferry terminal on Prince Edward Island in Canada. Prince Edward Island is Canada's smallest province.This is special to us because, in 2023, we drove our truck camper across the country from our home on Vancouver Island, on Canada's west coast, to Prince Edward Island on the east coast to visit where we grew up and our family.The journey involved traveling through nine provinces, twenty-three states, and 23,000 kilometers from coast to coast and back. We took four months for this adventure, and our Lance camper was a beautiful way to make memories!

#424 - James McCoySevenmile Rim, Moab, Utah2003 RAM 25001991 Hallmark LaVetaCamera Used - Canon EOS Rebel T7iWinding down a month-long trip to Arizona, I made a pass through Moab, Utah, to get some mountain biking in and check out some trails northwest of town. Still rocking my old Hallmark before adding a new camper this past summer.On my way out to ride Bartlett Wash, I hit the Jeep Safari trails out to Monitor and Merrimac Buttes. This trail had great views back toward the La Sal Mountains and rock formations in the sagebrush country.

#425 - Larry VolenecCapitol Reef Area, Torrey, Utah2021 RAM 35002014 Hallmark UteCamera Used - DJI MiniWhile exploring the Capitol Reef area near Torrey, Utah, we were searching for a secluded dispersed campsite on public land. We noticed a few RVs scattered across the landscape and discovered that the area was BLM land.Most campers had settled into the larger, more accessible sites, but our truck camper gave us the flexibility to navigate several gullies and follow the rugged terrain farther out. We eventually reached a secluded rocky promontory with sweeping views of the surrounding red-rock cliffs and desert landscape.It was one of those special places that reminded us why we love traveling with a truck camper: the freedom to venture beyond conventional campsites and discover extraordinary places along the way.

#425 - Larry Volenec

#426 - Lawrence VolenecAlcova, Wyoming2021 RAM 35002014 Hallmark UteCamera Used - DJI MiniWhile traveling through Wyoming, we were searching for a quiet place to spend the night near Alcova before visiting historic Independence Rock. This famous landmark along the Oregon, California, and Mormon Pioneer Trails was an important milestone for westbound pioneers, who hoped to reach it by July 4th to remain on schedule for crossing the mountains before winter snows.Our search led us to a beautiful spot overlooking the North Platte River. We spent a peaceful evening watching a few fly fishermen drift along the river and listening to the gentle lowing of cattle from nearby ranches.These unexpected discoveries are among our favorite parts of traveling by truck camper. We treasure finding these hidden gems, enjoying their natural beauty, and always leaving them better than we found them by picking up any litter left behind.

#432 - Matt CookCuyahoga Valley National Park, Ohio2024 Ford F-3502011 Lance 950Camera Used - Samsung Galaxy S24My wife was checking us in at the KOA just outside Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and I was taking the dog for a walk. I thought the rig looked good in the afternoon sunshine.We spent four days there exploring the park and riding the trails on our bikes during the day, then relaxing at the campground in the evenings.We love this truck and camper. The 7.3-liter Godzilla engine is a beast, the truck is comfortable, and the Lance 950 is a fantastic truck camper with lots of storage and room.

#433 - Maxim BethuremCrested Butte, Colorado2017 Toyota Tacoma2025 Tune Outdoor M1LCamera Used - Canon EOS R5This stunning campsite takes you high up to 11,335 feet and has incredible views of some of the best mountain ranges in Colorado. Pictured in the top left are the Maroon Bells, one of Colorado's most iconic mountain ranges.You're surrounded by alpine lakes and sitting directly at the base of a mountain over 12,000 feet tall. This campsite immerses you in Colorado's high country.The night I camped here, a friend and I spent an hour scouting elk from our high vantage point. You're so high up that you have views into three different valleys. The high country in Colorado is my favorite place to be, and this campsite is nothing short of beautiful Colorado alpine scenery.

#433 - Maxim Bethurem

#434 - Maxim BethuremCrested Butte, Colorado2017 Toyota Tacoma2025 Tune Outdoor M1LCamera Used - Canon EOS R5Crested Butte has the clearest view of the Milky Way that I have ever seen. The incredibly dark skies, high elevation, and dry air make for an amazing Milky Way viewing experience.This particular campsite is about as good as it gets for stargazing. You find yourself in an open field of alpine grass with five or six waterfalls surrounding you in all directions. There are beautiful peaks and alpine lakes right above you.The openness of the valley, combined with the roar of the rushing water, makes for such a serene setting. There isn't much better than a meaningful conversation with a friend under a bright, sparkling sky.

It was day nine of the road trip, and we had finally reached a day when the truck didn't require a repair and we could touch some grass.

#440 - Ryan BrownFlagstaff, Arizona2022 Ford F-2502025 Supertramp Flagship LTCamera Used - iPhone 17 Pro MaxThis photo was taken in Flagstaff, Arizona, on my way home from Colorado after getting my Bowen Customs bed installed. I stopped in Flagstaff to pick up my brother and take him camping with me for the first time ever.Even though there's not much to this photo, it's become one of my favorites because of the memory we made camping together. It was the first time I got to spend one-on-one time with my youngest brother.

Always beautiful in September, this was an especially scenic autumn day as fresh snow had just fallen on the Chugach Mountains in the background.This is one of my favorite places to camp out and watch for the northern lights.

#442 - Derek HansenTok Cutoff, Alaska2002 Ford F-3502004 Lance 1010Camera Used - Nikon D7200I was lucky to be stationed in Alaska for seventeen years of my Air Force career, but all good things must come to an end.Heading back down to the Lower 48, I pulled over for the night on the Tok Cutoff. It was the last night in Alaska for this old camper rig. When the northern lights appeared, it felt like a fitting farewell and send-off from that wonderful state nicknamed the Last Frontier.

#443 - Christy EimenIce Cave and Bandera Volcano, New Mexico2026 Ford F-3502026 Lance 1172Camera Used - iPhone 12 Pro MaxWe were on our fortieth anniversary trip when I took this photo. This was a Harvest Hosts stop at Ice Cave and Bandera Volcano in New Mexico. It was awesome!This was taken right after we set up camp. The next day, we saw the attractions. If you are in the area, it's worth the stop!We came from a 41-foot motorhome, which we could have never brought here! Our very first RV was a Lance in 1992. I guess we are back to the basics! We love it, and we can go anywhere with this setup!

We love staying at some of the most beautiful and unique places along our travels, especially farms. We're always eager to support local farmers and businesses.One day, we came across a farm called Sasquatch Family Farms. We instantly knew we had to stop by.They had some really cool Sasquatch height figures that I thought would be perfect for our photo. I wanted to take a picture pretending we had spotted a Sasquatch! I thought it would look pretty good, haha.
