"My best friend and I were backpacking over Memorial Day 2015. The night before we'd camped at Snag Lake, made a detour to the Cinder Cone in the morning, and ended up at Lower Twin Lake.
It was early in the season so there were still tons of downed trees and debris everywhere but this little spot happened to fit our tent.
It was so quiet and pristine."

Figueroa
Figueroa campground in Los Padres National Forest is an easy getaway for those in SoCal urban areas.
Mountains Above Santa Barbara
Great camp spots can be anywhere, even in full view of civilization. Blake sent us this photo of his setup looking over Santa Barbara and we hope his lady-friend was as psyched about it as we are.
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.
