Winter Downtime for Hikers and Campers

February 2, 2021

For many outdoor enthusiasts, the cold winter months are a bummer. Its too cold to camp, trails are covered in snow, streams become ice. Winter doesn’t have to be wasted time though. In fact, its the perfect time to prepare for the next season.

Camp Differently with Hipcamp

July 28, 2020

Camping in an established campground is fun and convenient. There is usually electricity and running water. Shower houses are nearby. Most have a metal ring ready for a fire. Growing up, this was the only way to camp. I discovered backpacking late in my teens and I loved the feeling of adventure. As a dad […]

Hawthorn Park, Terre Haute, Indiana

July 23, 2020

Hawthorn Park has long been my favorite park in Terre Haute. I’ve ran laps around the lake preparing for the Indy Mini Marathon. I’ve backpacked the trails practicing for longer trips. The wife and I have enjoyed kayaking the smaller lake. There are a couple different playgrounds for kids (and they love them). The labyrinth […]

Turkey Run State Park, Marshall, Indiana

May 14, 2020

I’m not sure I’ve ever met anyone that didn’t like Turkey Run State Park.  Its a refuge in a state covered in corn and beans.  Its known for its gorges and canyons cut out of Mansfield sandstone.

July 27, 2020

We’ve been eyeing France Park since pictures of the lake started populating our Facebook groups. The blue lake has beguiled us and it was worth a detour home.

Shades State Park, Waveland, Indiana

May 4, 2020

Shade State Park in west central Indiana is simply beautiful.  Its often overlooked as many Hoosiers choose Turkey Run, a nearby state park, but Shades has plenty to offer.  Its usually less crowded with the views as still amazing.  There is plenty of hiking between canyons and cliffs across the 3000 acres.
