What are some tips for desert camping at the Grand Canyon?

February27

Ok, a friend and I are planning a trip to the Grand Canyon for early June. We are staying in a tent for a week or maybe a little more, probably at Mather Campground. What are some good camping tips for that area? What is the wildlife situation? We are on a tight budget so does anyone know fun, cheap things to do within hiking distance? (We wont have a car as we are arriving by train.) We can only take so much on the train so is food cheap at the local store? ANY info, especially from people who previously stayed at Mather would be greatly appreciated!!

Good Campsites in New Hampshire? USA?

February27

my boyfriend and i want to go Tent camping for a weekend soon. im trying to search online for campsites in NH but its very hard to tell what is good & what may not be.

we’re looking for a place that is for the most part “real” camping, like lots of nature but with tiolets and possibly an electrical hookup. swimming, canoe rentals would be awesome. but as private as possible, and of course an ok price.

we REEEEALLY DONT want a rec hall, playground, pavement, ect. not really looking for a family campground.

i read alot of reviews about campsites being really strict like not letting you bring alcohol even if youre of age, & checking up on what youre doing alot…i hate the idea of that, id really like to have as much of my privacy as i can.

does anyone know of any good places like that???

Can you still enjoy camping if you have a fear of bugs and snakes?

February27

How safe is camping really? I have always wanted to try it. Is it realistic with children?

We have a big van, can you sleep in it if you dont want to sleep in the tent? Is this allowed on campsites? Can you bring your dog along? Are there flushing toilets around?

I know nothing about camping, can anyone please give me some answers.

Wyalusing State Park, Group Campgrounds

February27


Wyalusing State Park sits on bluffs 500 feet above the confluence of the Wisconsin and Mississippi Rivers. Within the park’s 2628 acres you will find hardwood forests, bluffs, springs, waterfalls, and spectacular vistas. You can see ancient Native American effigy mounds and imagine what the French explorers Marquette and Joliet thought about them as they became the first Europeans to set foot here in 1673. There are more than 23 miles of trails for hiking, biking and skiing. More than 100 bird species, including bald eagles, hawks, owls, and various waterfowl, can be observed during the spring and fall migrations. There are 109 family campsites, group tent campsites for 130 and a lodge/dormitory complex for 108 people. Nearby is the Villa Louis Victorian mansion. Across the river is the Effigy Mounds National Monument where you can observe 205 mounds considered as ceremonial and sacred sites by American Indian tribes. This video includes both the indoor and outdoor group campgrounds. Music copyright 2008, Malignant Choir and Maury Smith. Slideshow and photographs copyright 2008, Creative Juice LLC.
