We went hiking in Glacier National Park during the Thanksgiving long weekend. All campsites were closed so the only option for us after hiking was to drive out of the park and find the first available bush area.
We got off the trail late and it was starting to get dark. Not a lot of off road options for camping as this area is rugged and mountainous.
The Good: Found a lovely, level,open spot where there was fire wood within 20', creek 200',no one around. Mountains surround us.
The Ugly: Crews were tearing down an industrial building close by.(they were not working at the time), CPR trains on the mainline ran every 1/2 hour, luckily no horns and the Trans Canada highway ran right above with lots of evening truck traffic complete with jake brake. I did get a lot of stain from Mrs Crosscheck but a guys got to do what a guys got to do, right?
Is this boondocking?
