Green Weekend

Focus

I need you to focus, children. On the green. I have occasionally been accused of category creep here on the weekend experience. Like having dealt with all the criterium is a crime or something. So I have made a concerted to play strictly by the rules. You know what they say: "Even an old dog can turn over a new leaf." So be forewarned. Any representation of blue or even worse of camping is strictly coincidental. And nudity is just absolutely casual.

Black Canyon of the Gunnison.JPG

Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. Best known for it's geologic colors, it boasts a lot of green, too. Here, where you are invited to spend the night (not camping) each individual place is carefully screened from every other by green stuff. GROWING green stuff. It's quite a pleasant place to spend the night.

Had I left this photo uncropped you'd have been exposed to some serious blue skies that are served at altitude in Eastern Colorado. Fortunately for all of us I cropped out the unseemly blue. Never a violation of the rules, that is my motto.

A Wolf Creek.jpg

Wolf Creek, Oregon. Eastern Oregon. Better known as the tinder dry side of Oregon. It was obviously not particularly dry in Eastern Oregon this spring. The green is obvious and very real.

Please don't stand in judgement of me because of the casual bit of blue in this photograph. It's incidental and reflected! It might have been slate grey sky in actuality, the glorious blue reflection just imagination. It could happen!

OK, I feel the need to confess. These pictures represent one of my favorite things, camping off a motorcycle. I mean the green is obvious, the blues were actually stunning but both were/are sublime places to camp. And since I was the only patron at Wolf Creek I might have been walking around naked. Nobody knows but me, and I'm not telling.

315 words to the start of this sentence so I've fulfilled that requirement as well.

All words and photographs in this post are mine. Even the bad ones, for better or worse.

Category creep, is that like mission creep but with keyboards? These rules things sound a lot like that trespassing thing my parents kept trying to explain to me. Still think it's all a trap.

I understand 'no Trespassing' in some times and places. Everybody should not necessarily be allowed unfettered access to every place.

However, most 'no tresspassing' signs are put up for no apparent reason except to keep people out.

You are right, it's a trap. Plain and simple.

I will have to check out this community that you are posting in. I haven't heard of it before. That being said, the pictures are awesome. I really like sites like this where you are isolated from the others around you. Makes it difficult to hang out with our friends that camp with us though. Just more walking involved :)

The RV sites at BCotG are mostly paved and much more 'side accessible'. The 'dry camp' lot has quite a little green between and around, the 'full hookups' lot has way more asphalt than dirt :)

Wolf Creek Industrial NFS has some sites side by side and some all by themselves. All of them there are BIG. The Wolf Creek campground is much rougher, and obviously not used as much. They are about 1/2 mile apart.

full hookups' lot has way more asphalt than dirt :)

That's usually the case. It's like they think we don't like nature just because we want "modern" plumbing. I wish there were more campgrounds that had the rustic feel but had full hookups. There are a couple places in Michigan we have looked that my wife and I know we are way too blue collar for. Like this place: https://www.sunoutdoors.com/michigan/sun-outdoors-petoskey-bay-harbor#gallery-section

😅 That's a good twist! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Playing by the rules seems out of character here, but I guess that's how things are. The place looks amazing. It's great to have places to go. I guess being a biker means the road life is very active, but there's also a lot of time to relax and draw in nature.
