Walmart Overlanding

[grubworm]

just because you arent able to get away for a few days does not mean that you cant experience the joys of overlanding...
if you live anywhere in the united states, chances are there is a walmart within 15 minutes of your location.
so, without any further ado...throw on a tank top and grab your best pair of flipflops and let the adventure begin!

no overland trip is complete without a water crossing!



first come, first serve camp sites...so get there early!



i always get stuck behind the slow drivers...!



watch out for wildlife stampedes!



and you'll see the occasional rollover out on the trails...



and there is always that nice quiet fishing spot...



and no matter what...some folk just arent cut out to be overlanders...

I'm near a national forest with tons of campgrounds.

Apparently it's customary for many campers to arrive a night early and camp at Walmart, sign in at their campground of choice in the morning. Refill coolers, etc.

Most campgrounds have online sign-ups now, to mitigate the need for this. But who wants to pay for a full day, and only get 1/4 of a night? Especially if some retard is blocking your rented site when you arrive at night.

I'm conflicted. Sometimes it's cool tailgating, sometimes it's an embarrassing mess of squat-ed trucks and rv's.

And if there's a offroad motorcycle event "Wailing Wayne national forest", it's a mess. And that park's 3+ hours away still.
