Are You Truck Camping This Labor Day?

We just got back, before the long weekend started. Park was almost empty. Our choice of sites.

The holiday weekends are for the loud and rowdy campers to act like real idiots all night long. We camp at home beside our lake and have the camp fire as large as we wish.

Wife and I are doing the Lake Superior Circle Tour. Leaving Sunday for 8 days.

I sure hope you post a trip report. we'd like to try that at some point.

On the Oregon coast till Sunday and then heading into central Oregon. We got camping before the crowds arrived and will relocate mid holiday and not leave till after...

nope, I have no want or need to be on the roads or in the woods with thousands of my closest strangers. Cant wait to be parked at a Sierra Sno Park and head off into the hills on snowshoes or do some late season fly fishing with no one else in sight

Yes,
Leaving tomorrow for a campground in Blakeslee Pa in the Poconos staying until Monday !

Perfect timing too...I work for the State Highway Dept and there expecting high winds and damaging rains with this tropical storm that's coming...gonna be all hands on deck ! Have fun guys see ya Tuesday !

labor day weekend is for working around the house to get ready for winter. Then camping season starts after that.

Even Reddog knows to stay off of highway 50 this weekend.:)

Probably not. I've considered going somewhere for Sat night. I usually avoid the chaos of the last major camping day of the year.

On the Wet side of WA, it is CHAOS as everyone tries to escape to the dry side.

In fact, I see that it is CHAOS as I type this.
WSDOT website says:

North Bend to Ellensburg (EB)
normal travel time: 78
Current travel time: 119

And the pass cams show stop and go... er.... mostly "stopped" traffic heading east.

They are at the campgrounds, too! I think camping on a relative's farm sounds okay other than traffic, Tizi. ;)
