When I was in my twenties, I took several Bike trips with friends: to the U.P. and to the Big Horns, and to the Pacific Ocean once...Many trips in Northern MN. Always slept in a tent, Always a campfire, and usually as far off the pavement as possible (meaning several miles of gravel to a Army Corp of Eng. campground).
Two of favorite campgrounds:
Cottonwood Campground just outside of Afton, WY.
and a Army Corp of Eng. campground in U.P. of MI on the shores of Lake MI across the peninsula from Fayette Historic State Park, Garden, MI. (I couldn't find the name or anything online about it...But it existed a decade ago, in the little Bay, just south of Portage Bay).
PS: The last time I spent the night in a tent ?
about 8 years ago, in the middle of a veggie field at a friends farm...waiting to see what critter was doing nocturnal damage to the plants. My snoring must have kept the critters away
