Today’s California camping photo

[70-CA-Panel]

I’ve found Oregon to be more empty and camper friendly i.e free sites than CA at least on the coast. I remember camping all over the Oregon coast and never getting any hassle, this was late 90s early 00s. This might have change with vanlife popularity. Usually when going inland both CA, OR and WA you find some really nice empty state parks. It’s a stunning State.
How far are you touring? Are you making it over to Idaho and Montana? Just heard MT had some big floods
Happy and safe travels!

Lovely photo!!
How’s your bus so clean after all that touring?
Have an awesome time at the Bus fest and please post some photos.

It’s not as clean as it appears. Now you know why I never post any close-up photos.

Alabama Hills, California

Today was a bank holiday in the States, so I sauntered off to camp with the ‘71 and the spotted Dog. If this area looks kind of familiar, that’s because lotsa TV Westerns were filmed here. (If it does not, that’s because you’re under 50)

That does indeed look like that big rock where the good guy rides behind to hide from the lynch mob that’s chasing him beca he’s been set up by the bad guy

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,, I may or may not be over fifty, might not remember that far back

Today’s photo was taken at a less-than-exciting County park near Carson City, Nevada. Turns out that buses lose some of their pep driving at over 7,000 feet.

Not sure if I can actually breathe at that sorta altitude either.

Ozziedog ,,,,,,,,,, still looks absolutely brilliant.

The campground I was hoping for is closed because the road is still blocked by snow. Onward!

Finally found a spot here. No fees, plenty of firewood, a lake, remote possibly of snakes.

Still warm here in the desert. Got up to about 30c.

Looks a bit like the 1970s adverts for these campers

Wish I was there !
