Goose/Whitetail Hunting camp since 1986 on the Eastern Shore of MD
Thats my fiver on the left, and my OLD '85 Shasta TT that has never moved from that spot(until this year when we moved it and did a total tearout reno on it)




complete with steamed crabs and adult beverages!


and the fire at night of course.


one of my favorite places to go year after year...
we can see the chesapeake bay, 2 farm ponds, and no houses from our "site"

We were lucky and got a prime spot for 10 days in the SPRD of Pike NF.







Fire ban is on so we had to make do.



We did get to watch the really big fires and the smoke makes for the most interesting sunsets.



I think our humming bird feeder is too big for this tree.



Thanks for looking

Wonderful shots T.Low! We started camping out of a van 25 years ago and your pictures sure make me miss it.

T.Low, love all the great boondocking pictures. Your van looks like a great setup for back country exploring

T. Low - thanks for the pointers - the last photo looks like Succor Creek - just amazing that out in the middle of the Oregon desert is a spot akin to Southern Utah. I want to take pics too of the pillars so I can paint them.

Wow! Just Wow! These photos alone may have planted a new seed in my mind. :)

Thanks for the kind words, all. Glad you liked the pics.

Renee; read up on the Pillars and how they were formed before you go, then make sure to take the time to hike up and see them up close if you can. I've never seen anything like them. You can get close with your big rig, and may even be able boondock there close to where we were. (Otherwise, there's spaces at the Rome Store.)




Take a left just past this guy sitting in the middle of the horse coral.




It's a remote area, you may have to wait in line at the pump.




While you are in the area, I'd recommend cheking out Alford Desert (dry lake surround by the Steens Mountains), and Leslie Gulch (as scenic of a Big rig freindly area I've ever seen)



@ Camperfool: You are so right. These areas especially the first two pics) just stop me in my tracks and I have to sit and gaze with a hot cup of coffee all morning and just take it in. Cultivated my love for areas like this growing up in Michigan, going to Lk Superior, the Niagra Escarpment, and such places.

@ bukhrn: You can bring your rig out to Samon le Sac for a weekend, then jump in my little 4x4 van and I'll escort you up the trail on my enduro dual sport motorcycle. I'll ride back down and sleep in your rig while you spend the weekend up there. ;)
