Camp at Bartlett Cove Campground in Glacier Bay NP
Gustavus, Alaska
5.0
1 mi
Depending on how you arrive to Gustavus, (which may or may not be the most difficult part of this adventure) you'll want to head to the Visitor Information Center at Bartlett Cove within the park to grab a free camping permit if you are there during the summer season and to sit through an orientation training. If you're like me and go in the off-season, a permit and the training aren't required...
Hike Sand Canyon in Canyons of the Ancients
Cortez, Colorado

13 mi
/ 1390 ft gain
The Sand Canyon trail in Canyons of the Ancients has two trailheads. The lower trailhead (off of County Road G) begins at 5,472-ft., while the upper trailhead (off of Country Road N) begins at 6,862-ft. If you are doing the 13 mile out-and-back hike as I did, begin at the lower trailhead and work your way to the upper. If you are looking to do the 6.5 miles one way, I suggest beginning at the u...
Explore the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary
Ramah, New Mexico

1 mi
Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary is an incredible place that has 3 main focuses: rescue, sanctuary and care, and education. It's important to keep these in mind when visiting, but also when you're exploring elsewhere.As WSWS is a bit far from your typical town, I recommend preparing in advance if you are camping on-site or if you plan to explore El Morro National Monument or El Malpais National Monum...

1 mi
/ 40 ft gain
Little Molas Lake Campground is about 1 mile off of US Highway 550 on Molas Pass just North of and on the other side of the highway from the Molas Overlook. Pro-tip: there is also another campground nearby called Molas Lake Park & Campground, so it's important to distinguish which you are headed to beforehand.The Little Molas Lake area is very high in elevation, with Coalbank and Molas pass...
Camp at South Mineral Campground
Durango, Colorado
4.8
Some general notes: South Mineral Campground does not take reservations - all sites are first come first served. There are an assortment of designated areas along South Mineral Road where dispersed camping is allowed so there is plenty of camping in the canyon on all but the busiest days, but you must camp in one of these designated areas if this is the case.South Mineral Campground is the la...
Hike the Ruins of Hovenweep National Monument
Montezuma Creek, Utah
4.7
2 mi
/ 80 ft gain
Hovenweep National Monument consists of 5 separate units which were once Ancestral Puebloan communities. The main trail, Little Ruin Canyon, starts from the Visitor Center and is the only unit that has paved access. Don't let the dirt-clay roads keep you from the other units though, they are not to be missed and are all simple hikes as well! There is no fee to access the monument, but I highly ...

Camp at Cherry Springs State Park
Coudersport, Pennsylvania

1 mi
Cherry Springs State Park was my first ever International Dark Sky Park and it stole my heart, and I promise it will steal yours too.The park itself is very quaint, but don't let it's size deter you! The park is still as remote and wild as it was nearly two centuries ago, and that's nearly impossible to find East of the Mississippi anymore.The 82-acre park sits at around 2,300 feet above sea-le...
