At Boondocking Magazine, our mission is simple — to inspire adventure, educate others, and celebrate real off-grid living.
We believe that the road less traveled still has stories to tell. Through every article, photo, and shared experience, we aim to connect people to the freedom, simplicity, and wonder that comes with stepping away from the noise of everyday life.
We exist to remind readers that boondocking isn’t just camping — it’s a lifestyle rooted in self-reliance, respect for nature, and gratitude for the beauty God created around us. Our goal is to capture that feeling and share it with others — whether you’re deep in the backcountry or dreaming from your driveway.
Our Core Values
1. Authenticity Above All
We believe real stories matter. Every feature, photo, and interview in Boondocking Magazine is created by people who live the lifestyle — not marketing teams or agencies. We don’t stage our adventures; we live them, learn from them, and share the lessons honestly.
2. Adventure with Purpose
Adventure doesn’t always mean going farther — sometimes it means going deeper. We value exploration that challenges the body, feeds the spirit, and sparks creativity. Whether it’s a forgotten forest road or a windswept desert ridge, we seek meaning in every mile.
3. Simplicity & Self-Reliance
Boondocking teaches independence. We celebrate those who generate their own power, haul their own water, and find joy in simplicity. It’s about thriving with less — and realizing how little you actually need to feel complete.
4. Faith in the Journey
We recognize God’s presence in every sunrise and storm. Our adventures are a reflection of His artistry and a reminder to appreciate the creation we move through. Gratitude, humility, and respect for the natural world guide everything we do.
5. Community & Contribution
While boondocking often means solitude, we know we’re part of something bigger — a community of explorers, dreamers, and doers. We invite others to share their stories, photos, and lessons learned, helping us grow together through shared experiences.
6. Sustainability & Stewardship
We are guests in the wild places we visit. Boondocking Magazine promotes responsible camping, minimal impact, and a “leave it better than you found it” philosophy. We want future generations to experience the same unspoiled beauty that inspired us.
Our Promise
We promise to keep Boondocking Magazine rooted in the same principles that built it: honesty, creativity, and passion for the outdoors. We’ll continue to highlight real people, real places, and real experiences — because the best adventures aren’t manufactured; they’re discovered.
