Some people here call us derisively as tree huggers.
Seriously, if you are here and it's because you love camping. Camping involve living among the trees -- in a forest :S.
So why won't you like trees if you are into camping?:h
Well ... I live in and around trees 24/7 whenever home between RV trips. Some of the trees that could fall on our house are 100 or more year old redwoods and oaks, with some of the redwoods being well over 100' high. The rest of our trees are other types that require constant pruning and dealing with the prunings, and/or leaf raking. It's constant work.
I don't need "trees" to camp in - unless that's what it takes to get to trophy fish. On RV trips I'll take boondock camping in the wide open deserts any day over trees. The ultimate dream RV camping for me is to be way out there on the far side of beyond in the desert beside a desert lake ... either fishing that lake or sitting beside it at dusk watching those spectacular desert sunsets. :C
