A recent TV report (I think History Channel) discussed the origin of many terms we use every day. One of them was the term boondock. The apparent origin is from the Philippines during WWII. When the Allies were overrun by the Japanese they retreated to the `remote areas' of the islands called the bundoc in the local Tagalong languange. As often happens, bundoc became Boondock as time went on.
So when you boondock you are typically going to a `remote area'.
