"The Crystal Lake trail in the Uintas has multiple scenic lakes to backpack into for the night ranging from .2 to 4 miles long.

Crystal Lake is the first at less than a quarter mile in, or the last in this case on the way back down."

Camping on the Kern River

The Kern River flows through the Sierra Nevada mountains and affords a wealth of camping opportunities ranging from developed campgrounds to backcountry dispersed camp spots.

Hotel Prius

Compact car camping means you can still sleep comfortably along with the gear you actually need, all while taking advantage of the great mileage to get to the best campspots around.

Karelian Isthmus

Be prepared for thick forests and moss covered trees when camping on the Karelian Isthmus.
