"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."

Second Beach Sunset

Beach camping in Olympic National Park – if you’ve done it, then you already know. If you haven’t, then picture yourself soaking up that brilliant sunset and you’ll be heading to the PNW in no time.

Catching a glimpse of the Aurora Borealis at this campspot in Banff National Park.

Whiskey In The Wind

Put an end to the workweek with a glass of whiskey and some great camping in the Wind River Mountain Range.
