"My trip to the Pacific Northwest was full of new experiences and incredibly beautiful sights. My favorite moment from the entire trip was watching the brilliant pink and purple sunset over the Pacific Ocean from my tent on Second Beach.
My husband and I hiked out to the beach in the afternoon with all of our gear, and found that there were only a handful of other people there. I was expecting large crowds at the beach, but we found that we were nearly alone and were surrounded by only the beauty of nature. We were hoping for a good sunset, but the clouds were thick along the horizon and we prepared ourselves for the worst.
Suddenly, as we were about to lose hope, the sky began to light up and created a breathtaking backdrop to stunning islands and sea stacks along the shore.
This was a camping moment I will never forget."

We’re not always fond of the rusty-metal fire rings found at established camp spots, but this long-expsoure photo captures the campfire in a dreamlike state.
Awakening to Mule Ears
Big Bend National Park is one of the biggest national parks, it’s even bigger than Rhode Island. Yet it’s also one of the least visited parks which means if you’re looking for solitude and incredible night skies – this is the place to be.
Good Morning Mount Hood
In our very first Camp Spot feature, we are in awe from Lisa’s perfect opportunity to leave off the rain fly and enjoy the view in the Mt. Hood Wilderness.
