Public land in the United States is managed by four federal land management agencies: National Park Service, United States Forest Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Bureau of Land Management. If you have never heard of dispersed camping, let me back up and explain. More available places to camp and more remote areas outside of high usage campgrounds! And it is free! And wow, what a world of possibilities dispersed camping opens up. This road trip was my first time to try out dispersed camping - which is essentially camping on designated public lands outside of established campgrounds. Leave No Trace: Trash, bathroom, and traveling on durable surfaces - all the same as when backpacking or any time out in nature.Also, these are great for privacy to change clothes or security to prevent others from seeing all my gear laid out in the back (when not driving of course). They are reversible so help the vehicle retain warmth in the winter or to stay cool in the summer. Warmth / Privacy: Took full vehicle window shades (which fit in each window).Entertainment: Took a portable speaker, USB chargeable via the power bank, to play music and listen to podcasts!.All are USB chargeable via the power bank. Lights: Took mini-lanterns, string lights, and my backpacking headlamp.Power Source: Took a rechargeable power bank to run and re-charge electric devices, lights, and my phone. Also, took my normal backpacking sleeping bag and inflatable pillow. Or I could go with a double bed foam mattress pad in the future.
