Using satellite technology, forty-nine Truck Camper Magazine readers accepted the challenge to find their truck campers from space.  And the winner of Truck Campers From Space 2 is…

When Truck Campers From Space first ran in 2008, we had serious doubts that anyone would actually participate.  That concern was quickly dashed as the first entry arrived before the email alerts went out.  The response was amazing.

Five years later, the entries for Truck Campers From Space 2 were more than three-times what we received in 2008.  Even better, we had readers who entered in 2008 enter again with more current satellite imagery and new truck camper rigs.

Here are the submitted satellite images:

Choosing a winner was a real challenge.  In 2007, we chose Gary and Hazel Birrenkott’s satellite photo because (a) you could really see the truck camper, (b) there was a boat in the image showing the towing versatility of a truck camper, and (c) we liked it.

This time we used the same criteria choosing an image that clearly showed a truck camper and, in some way, represented the truck camping lifestyle.  After that it was down to which image we liked the most.

And the winner is… Robert Johnson!

Thank you to everyone who entered Truck Campers From Space 2.
