what happened to good old camping?

Posted: April 13th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Camp Sites | Tags: , , , , , | 5 Comments »

Im looking for a campground somewhere in maine or new hampshire. I have only two stipulations. I want a tent site, and I want a waterfront site. Why is it that camping is now looked at as an rv and trailer destination and tent sites are few and far between? Nobody does real camping anymore? Jeez! (if anyone knows any good spots in maine/NH, let me know! thanks!!

    I also cant handle going to ANY campgrounds anymore. I find that the best way to find solitude is to strap on a backpack and pick a diection and go. You be amazed of what you can find in the wilderness.

    in NH check out the Kancamangus Highway (route 112) its part of the White Mountain national forest preserve and they maintain several campgrounds all along that road
