Truck Camping Photo Thread

Excellent campsite. Was there a few weeks ago.

 

How was the trip in? I was wondering what the condition of the Flint Trail zigzag would be like after all the rain this year.

 

Did Flint Trail three times (the first hike we did was at The Neck, but our first night we were camped up at Happy Canyon, so it was down, up, and back down again in the morning). No issues at all.

 

Nice! Glad to hear the park is in great shape!

A Cascades Quickie

eastern Cascades looking west at Mt. Ranier, very pleasant night with light winds and upper 40's:

 

Man you guys out west are in a whole different ball game for camping hahaha

 

Makes ya a little jealous doesn't it? I'm hoping to get out there one day... maybe when I retire haha

 

Same, too bad I’ll retire in another 35 years haha

 

A Couple o' Cascades Quickies

Finishing up a multi-week truck camping bender with a couple of one-nighters east of White Pass.
I had to break out some of my winter gear:

 

you dont have to retire, save enough money to take a month long sabbatical or build up your PTO to do it. I'm taking 3 months off from work to take care of my newborn, 2.5 months will be paid for thanks to built up paid time off

But yeah, they do it different. I need to take my truck out west. TX does not have many places to camp the way they do

Why the change?

 

Met up with an old friend between Christmas and New Years, a yearly tradition, in the Cuyama Badlands, then headed east to Rainbow Basin in the Mojave desert to avoid the worst of an oncoming storm.

started out as a clear starry night with coyote howls



changing to light snow by morning

 

Followed the end of the storm into Panamint Valley. Weather was cooperative (one windy, raining, freezing night out of 3 isn’t bad).

 

I still drink Rainier.

 

is it available in town??
