You're already an experienced camper when it comes to camping at
developed campgrounds. But what would it be like to turn onto a
dirt road leading to a distant mountain range or perhaps out to an
isolated desert area leaving most folks behind where solitude and
serenity rule? No inconsiderate all night partiers "sharing" their
music with you whether you like it or not. No generators. No
campsite restrictions for parking your vehicle at exactly four
inches from some barrier. No need for reservations. And, typically
there are no campsite fees Of course even off road camping on land
under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S.
Forest Service, and state parks do have rules. But their rules are
usually much less restrictive than those of a developed campground
managed by some corporation or other entity. You have much more
freedom to choose your own campsite and park your vehicle where you
want. OHV is an abbreviation for "Off Highway Vehicle" and is a
term used by government jurisdictions with authority over an area
designated for legal use of vehicles for the purpose of traveling
literally off the highway. The Beginners Guide to OHV Camping
introduces you to the concepts of combining the skill set of off
road travel with simple, safe, and comfortable camping. There
exists a wealth of scenery in our forests, deserts, and plains
throughout our country which are virtually unscathed by
development, vandals, and inconsiderate campers leaving their trash
behind. The reason these areas remain preserved is the fact that
they are only accessible by vehicles designed for off road travel
therefore significantly reduces the amount of overall traffic into
these areas. Off road camping enthusiasts are very protective of
these environments which they visit year after year while
introducing new generations of campers to the beauty of the
outdoors. Here a just a few topics covered in The Beginners Guide
to OHV Camping: In addition to camping equipment, The Beginners
Guide to OHV Camping recommends a host of tools you won't want to
be without specifically for addressing off road travel situations.
