PISMO!!...is there any place to shower if you are camping in a tent on the Oceano Dunes SVRA?




*p!nk!e*


me and my friends are planning on camping out on the beach in a tent, some of them sleeping in their truck since none of us owns an RV...we want to know if there are public places to shower? at the oceano dunes state vehicular recreation area? thanks :)


Answer
Not on the beach, the best you can do is go up to the boardwalk and use+ the shower for the surfers.

National Parks of the USA tent camping suggestions?

I'm traveling with a friend from the east coast to the west coast. Driving. Sharing a tent. We'll have bikes. Would prefer to have shower facilities as it'll be summer & we'll prob. break a sweat. Looking for a literal map of parks to visits and which campsites you would prefer! We'd LOVE to get into the wilderness with the exception of extreme cases that we could get eaten by a bear or something outrageous. Leads to the nest point.... Would like to see Mt. Rushmore, Yellowstone, Yosemite, Grand Canyon, etc. Friend has an aunt in Oklahoma we can stay with for free so, any and every other park in that route we can camp at please let me know! & we're 19 & 20 yrs old & have never done this alone before, or at all... so what could you suggest as far as food? Cooler & grocery stores? Idk about ice though. Please any tips let me know!! We want to see the world and we decided to start at home! :D I know we have to book in advance so that's why I am asking. Hopefully booking campsites later this week! Thanks all!!

Answer
Ahhh... the sun & the moon & stars. You have a big dream with long distances. It is a good idea but you have to take into account time and distance. How long and how far will you want to travel per day and for how many days. You talk east to west trip but the places you want to see are north to south. As for showers the national parks don't offer showers. You can buy most of the equipment you need for less over here. Walmart, Kmart, Campmor.com, Bass Pro Shops. I don't think you are into backpacking and long hiking trips so weight quality is not a trade off. West of the Rockies the gas prices go up a lot. Every town has some place to buy ice and food. As you travel you'll find the stores you like and just about every other exit on the interstate has a Walmart. For Cycling try adventure cycling on the web and railtrail.org. Look into our National Forests for camping and wilderness over the Nat. Parks. State Parks have better camping facilities, showers, beaches. For cycling in Colorado there are two good cycle paths along I 70. Glenwood canyon and Vail Pass. In Idaho/Montana the Hiawatha(sp) rail trail is a wilderness, no roads except the path 18 miles downhill with a shuttle bus at the bottom. Mt. Rushmore is near Custer State Park which is about 10XBetter than the over sized carvings. The whole Yellowstone area inside and outside the park is worth a lifetime. Make a point of seeing the geysers at night hopefully under a full moon with the stars. Wild animals are not a worry. At any and all truck stops and discount stores you can buy a road atlas with campsites listed. Every state, city and county has a website for tourists and camping suggestions. All libraries have internet. Every bank has an ATM. Places to avoid. I'm not a big fan of anything East of the Rockies too crowded. You'll find the west more interesting. As a general rule I keep the gas tank 1/2 full and 2 gallons of water per day, food for three days and let it happen. You'll find a small propane gas stove (any discount store) a must for cooking. You can make a campfire for pleasure at just about all campsites. Also they have picnic tables. You can walk around the campsite and get lots of advice as to gear, and the road ahead.
