Boondocker Camping caters to those who prefer camping outside of developed campgrounds. If you are an off-road enthusiast who seeks the adventure of camping in the wilderness, then buckle up to read our camping tips and trips gained from our experience of various modes of camping since 1976. We share our outdoor adventures and stories of lessons learned to inform and inspire other boondockers to discover and explore the wild beauty of the western United States.
