Haven’t been camping since I was a kid, and it was always New Hampshire white trash camping where your tent was like 10 feet away from the next tent in some lovely campground with Budweiser cans all over the place.

I go canoe camping with a group of guys every year in Wisconsin. Spend several hours paddling down the river taking in nature's splendor, get out and hang my hammock for sleeping. One year I got to see a group of river otters. It's pretty great.

Also, just so everyone knows, hammocks > tents.

I just bought a hammock gonna give that a try.

I was gonna go camping today but my partner is out of town and I couldn't find anyone to go with last min and now it's a heat wave and idk if I wanna camp when it's this hot.

Instead I'm gonna spend the morning biking and swimming and then BBQ and when it gets hot as balls I'm gonna go home and play switch until later and then go to a concert and bring friends home from that and have a fire in the back yard and trip balls.

So basically all the fun parts of camping without having to pitch a tent.

Pro tips for camping:

Bring a premade bagged salad.

A welders mit so you can just grab that log in th fire and move it instead of loving around with a fire poker.

Bring baby wipes.

One of the funniest camping trips I've done was to a state park that was infested with racoons. We got there late, had to park outside and jump the locked gate with all our gear. To our credit we did fill out the registration slip and paid our campsite fees.

We were the only people there. We picked a sweet site and got our party on. Campfire, food, drinking, music, and weed.
There was a picnic table at the site with one side facing the campfire, so a few were sitting there. The table was covered in food and condiments that we hadn't put away. A bit after it got dark the racoons showed up, literally on the picnic table a couple feet behind people, scrounging through the food.

We chased them off and put our coolers/food in one of those steel bear-proof boxes the campsite had. They still kept coming around though. We eventually crash out to sleep. It was warm so we didn't bother with tents; just a large tarp, our sleeping pads and bags. There was some deliberation on who got to sleep in the middle and who had to sleep on the sides.

Of course at roughly 3 AM one of us wakes up and starts screaming. 2 racoons were walking all over us. For the record, racoons seem all cute and fuzzy when they are at a distance; but when they are walking on you its like a vicious medium sized dog that might tear your throat out. We all freak out and scare them away. One just went about 20' away and then turned and stared at us, for like 2 minutes. We eventually shooed it away. We arranged the tarp so that we could roll it over ourselves for extra protection and went back to sleep.

In the morning the camp's ranger comes by, and didn't care at all that we'd hopped the gate. We mentioned the racoons and he was all, "Oh yeah they are horrible here, way too brave and smart. We tried relocating a few of them but they always come back." We mentioned if we ever came back we'd get there earlier so we could stash our food in our cars when we were done with dinner. He said, "Yeah that works because then they just climb all over your car; not you." Good times.

It's a bit further north than you may want, but Ansel Adams Wilderness south of Yosemite is some beautiful high mountain country. Campgrounds at all of the trail heads are wonderful. May be crowded this time of year and reservations are needed, by Fall they get empty and you can just roll in.

You can camp and do day hikes up to timber line, or stay low and hike and fish and swim along the rivers.

The further you hike, the fewer people you see, and it becomes your own personal playground.

that sounds awesome. we did a "portage" trip that connected five or more lakes with trails in between two summers ago, we took about 5 days doing it too, i like to chill while backpacking, no offense to people who like to charge through thats not what i like to do. hiking through a forest with a canoe over your head isn't super fun, but you just need to accept that its hard work and get over it.





but you get to do some cool things (and i dont particularly like paddling) and you get to some cool rear end places









drat now that i look at it ive done a poo poo load of camping and backpacking lol, gave up the bike, put on the boots and grabbed the pack

i still love the bicycle

late night drives near trees away from people with no street lights are like my favorite and I’ve scared road trip friends repeatedly because what’s spooky? this is normal let’s get out and walk around a little
