When cabins go wild

Even though we had a great boondocking spot miles down a dirt road all to ourselves, Kerri continued her map reconnoitering. In the process, she found a cabin. The cabin (I will leave it un-named and un-marked) is open to the public and free to use. Our curiosity was peaked...

Getting stuck, finding a mine

We spent a couple of hours driving a loop of asphalt around the Mojave to scout some already-known boondocking spots when Kerri directed me down yet another dirt road to explore. While the known-spots were just fine, they need to be something special to meet Kerri’s standards, and they did...

Abandoned vehicles and a foggy forest

Oregon has some great state forests which are treated very similarly to their bigger brother, the national forests – at least when it comes to their allowance of dispersed camping. We needed a place to spend our work week again, so Kerri set her keen eye to work on the...

Our own hill, the full kit, and berry galette

Clean and fresh, we left civilization in pursuit of a spot to spend the work week… now, I don’t know if any of you have been keeping track, but since leaving the Moose Lodge in La Pine, we have camped in a different nearly every single night. Only once, at...
