Camping Photos That’ll Make Your Day!

CNN에서 발췌한 재미난 Camping 사진들

 

Bunk Beds

This group of campers took cues from their childhood and stacked their hammocks like bunk beds. They might not have been the most sophisticated campers out there, but they sure know how to create a great photo. But what could go wrong when a group of grown adults starts behaving like mischievous toddlers?

 

Minimalist Camper

Choosing the right tent is the most important part of creating a good campsite vibe, so pick carefully. If it's too big you might not find a decent space to set it up. If it's too small, well... you might not be able to fit inside it. Like in this case..

 

Who Needs a Bed When You've Got a Cooler and Folding Chairs?

There’s roughing it and then there’s roughing it and this camper seems to have come completely unprepared for his weekend getaway. Not only did he forget his tent but also seems to be missing a mat. Clearly, he doesn't want to sleep directly on the ground, so he propped himself up on two chairs with his cooler under him.

 

Luxury Camping

There’s nothing better than enjoying a night out in the great outdoors—away from the stresses of daily life —sleeping under a blanket of stars with the sound of chirping crickets to lull you to sleep. But as much as some of us are willing to rough it , we can’t help but miss the luxuries of technology.

Epic Improvise

This is another awesome makeshift camping device that some campers put together. Instead of tossing their old mailbox in the trash, they transformed an old rigged mailbox into cooking ware to prepare their dinner. It seems to be providing a great warm cooking surface for their hot meal while out in the wilderness.

 

2-In-1 Shopping Cart

Nestled under the shade of a tree is a group of enthusiastic grill masters surrounding a barbecue setup that is truly one for the books. We have already shown you campers who have designed their own grills out of random objects. We just wonder whether finding a camping grill at a store is that difficult.

 

Life's a Picnic

Every minute not spent enjoying the nearby lake while you're on your summer vacation is a minute wasted. That's probably what these guys thought while they were constructing this new contraption. As it turns out, picnicking on the water is a well-honed art form, and clearly, these guys have mastered it.

 

Porta-Potty on Wheels

Even if you're staying in a camping area that has portable toilets, you usually choose to pee in the woods over visiting one. Well, these people seemed to nail that problem right on the head and come up with their own solution. Taking care of basic bodily needs has never been so rough and ready.

 

Comfort First

Camping sometimes involves pushing the limits of tent space while defying the laws of mattress capacity! Like these eager campers who brought along a king-sized air mattress for their twin-sized tent. We're actually surprised they managed to fit it in, considering how little space is left in their tiny tent.

 

Multi-Purpose Toilet

This is no ordinary porcelain throne. This toilet has undergone a remarkable transformation, shedding its water-flushing duties to become the most peculiar, yet strangely captivating, grill we've ever encountered. Embracing the unconventional, they simply added a metal grate where the seat once was and some ice for a nifty cooler.

 

Camping Accessories

Even if you're a seasoned camper with fully stocked grilling gear, here's one pair of grilling utensils you probably don’t own. They're not incredibly practical as you can only grill a few pieces at a time, but they sure are silly and will satiate your childish tendencies with just one look.

While we wouldn't suggest getting these impractical utensils for your next grill party, grilling outdoors doesn’t always have to be a serious endeavor, after all. These might make a great gift for a bachelor party, who knows, maybe you have some friends who really enjoy this kind of crass humor.

 

Camping With Style

So in this day and age where the beauty of nature is better observed from a floating hammock, this woman definitely knows how to enjoy a serene environment in style. She even made herself some stairs! This takes outdoor skills to a whole other level, don’t forget to bring a pillow.

 

The Good Old Camping Prank

This just never gets old, does it? Nothing like grabbing your friend's mattress and floating it on the lake in the middle of the night, especially when he's with his girl. Can you imagine waking up and putting your foot out of bed, only to fall in (probably freezing!) water?

 

Bring Your Own TV

Say goodbye to roughing it in the wilderness and hello to "glamping" at its finest. All you need to do is forget about traditional camping conventions and bring a TV and generator instead. Who needs wildlife encounters when you can just watch the fascinating lives of animals from the comfort of your camping chair?

 

Hanging Out

While scenic views in natural parks are always on the agenda when you go camping, we're not sure if this view is what he had in mind. We can't help but wonder why someone would tape him to the tree. Was he misbehaving so much that he needed to be restrained?

Or did he specifically ask his friends to tightly tape him on the tree so he could just "hang out" for a while? But hey, at least he has something to drink so not only is he hydrated but if he fell asleep he wouldn't have to worry about a bear attack.

 

21st Century Phone Booth

This is seemingly out of place yet perfectly picturesque. An old-school telephone sign with a seriously old-school can attached to a string. Back in the day, these public payphones were located all over in, just case of an emergency or well, in case you wanted to call your mom and let her know you were okay.

 

Packing Priorities

If you've ever moved, you'll know how frustrating it is to go through what seems like humanity's greatest chore. Moving requires a great deal of effort, from disassembling all your furniture to the exhausting, physical act of packing up and storing all of your belongings—and let's not forget the heavy lifting that follows.

 

DIY Pig Roasting

When summer arrives the sun's golden rays begin to feel like they are finally smacking us upside the head and roasting us crisp faster than we can say "heat stroke." Well probably not fast enough to cook an entire pig! So whoever did this deserves some sort of prize for creativity.

 

Worst Breakdance Ever

Camping follows the abiding rule that encountering a little hardship together builds strong friendships. Wandering in nature, starting a finicky fire, and cooking in the dark will help you get acquainted. Turns out, it’s also the best possible time to show off your new dance moves, being miles away from civilization and all.

We have no idea how this poor guy got into this situation, or why! But we can be absolutely positive he's never going to enjoy campfires again. It's safe to say this guy probably didn't plan to fall into the campfire while celebrating with his friends, but here we are.

 

Barefoot Sand-Skiing

You can surf the streets, the sea, the snow, and even the Internet. So why not surf some sand? It seems this guy has already perfected this new sport and can surf while being barefoot! Maybe it helps with slipping, but we like it so much we've decided to dubb this sport "barefoot sand-skiing".

 

 

Photo-Bearing

One of the best things about spending time outdoors is, of course, a newfound connection with mother nature. You could even go fishing, like this guy, just look at how happy he is and he couldn't be more proud of his catch. He's enjoying this special moment so much that he's completely oblivious to his impending doom.

As the age-old expression goes: pics or it didn’t happen. Otherwise we would never believe this bear was this close to the guy who's totally unaware that he just stole his lunch. We can only  hope that the person taking the picture warned him and that they got away in time.

 

Camping in Russia

For all the aspiring adventurers out there, these men can really serve as inspiration for your next outdoor trip. Raised by the feral wolves of Siberia, can camp in the freezing cold weather of mother Russia. Such men don't need shirts, even in the middle of winter. They don't need a campfire or marshmallows.

 

Glamping

When you think of leaving on trip to go camping, cars, vans, or Jeeps, come to mind. But whatcar would you take if you were a glamorous camper? A Glamborghini, of course! From both a practical and eye-catching standpoint, a Lamborghini makes the most sense.

So not only will you attract everyone's attention, but you'll also dry your clothes. The only down-side to having such a fancy car at a campsite is, you'll stick out like a sore thumb. But we suppose, that's the whole point of owning a Lamborghini, isn't it?

 

S’mores All-Around

Ah, the humble rake, once a mere garden tool, here we see it transformed into an unlikely hero—a makeshift grill that defies convention. It's not everywhere that allows you to use this bonkers system of grilling when making s'mores. But when you're camping in the great outdoors anything is possible.

 

Peg It Down!

When it comes to pitching your tent, you might think that the poles are the most important part of setting up a tent, but you'd be wrong. While the poles do a good job holding your tent up, they can't guarantee it won't go flying with every gust of wind..

 

Bathroom Equality

If you've been around recently you've probably heard about people demanding bathroom equality and accessibility. Everyone deserves to have the chance to go to the bathroom and feel comfortable with who they are, regardless of their gender identity or physical abilities. This is true for men, women, and anyone in between.

Accessible bathrooms are crucial for all individuals, even Scotsmen who are out there camping in their kilts deserve their own bathrooms so that they can use restroom facilities independently and with dignity. After all, nobody should be made to feel embarrassed or ashamed when they go to the bathroom just because they wear a kilt.

 

Sleeping in a Bag in a Car

When you know you won't be able to pitch that tent before it gets dark and you're camping with children, sometimes you just have to come up with creative solutions. In this case, the problem was a very tired child, and the solution was a sleeping bag in the trunk of the car.

 

Sleep Walking

If this is supposed to be a fashion statement, then it isn't really the best one. Still, camping during the winter means cold weather, and cold weather means warm attire! Sometimes you may forget about what's flattering and attractive and go straight for whatever item of clothing will keep you warm.

 

A Fancy Toilet

Some people are not willing to go camping for obvious reasons. For those people, the only thing that is keeping them from going out to nature is the fact they don't want to be outside when nature calls. We all know the feeling of needing to go when you gotta go!

Is it really too much to ask for a designated loo area, no matter the shape of size?! Some people will only be willing to come camping if there are promised facilities such as the one seen in the picture, including easy-to reach toilet paper that's attached to the tree.

 

Face It

Cooking can indeed become a laborious undertaking, especially when you're cooking in the great outdoors, far away from all your amentities and appliances. Regardless, there's always room for a little creativity when you're preparing a meal. Like carving out some creepy faces in your potatoes. Sure it's creative, but is it really necessary?
