Somewhere... Out There

This is a scene I have relived many times... carefully making my way along a dirt two-track trail looking for a place to camp on public lands in Wyoming for the night amongst the sagebrush. These lands are managed by the Bureau of Land Management and you can basically camp anywhere without paying. That's my kind of a deal!

 

There are some advantages to camping on BLM instead of Forest Service lands. BLM has far fewer restrictions on where you can camp and these lands are less frequented by others. And, unlike traveling along Forest Service roads, I've never had a problem turning around on BLM trails. The downside is that BLM lands are basically what nobody else wants... it is usually dry, dusty, barren, and has no shade. That's not always the case, but the general rule.
