Because what keeps us going isn’t just the view — it’s the people who understand it.
It’s funny when you think about it — most of us didn’t join boondocking and RV groups just to find the next campsite.
Sure, we love the gear talk, the off-grid setups, and the photos of rigs parked beneath a perfect mountain backdrop… but what really keeps us coming back is something deeper.
We join these groups because they remind us that we’re not alone in chasing this kind of freedom.
Because here, people get it.
They understand the peace of waking up to silence, the satisfaction of cooking breakfast outside, the thrill of finding a hidden forest road that wasn’t on any map.
They understand why “less” often means “more.”
Over time, these online communities have become something special — a gathering place for people who crave connection through the shared language of campfire stories, road dust, and open skies.
That’s exactly why we’re building Boondocking Magazine — a national print + digital publication inspired by this same spirit.
It’s not meant to replace the conversations happening here, but to amplify them.
We want to take the best of what happens in these groups — the real stories, the DIY builds, the off-grid wisdom, the honest lessons learned the hard way — and bring them to life on high-quality printed pages that you can actually hold, save, and share.
Think of it as a campfire that burns a little wider — connecting all of us from one corner of the country to another.
The magazine will feature real voices from within the community (yes, maybe even yours), along with stories, gear insights, and adventures that celebrate the lifestyle we all love.
If you’ve ever posted a photo, shared advice, or told a story in one of these groups — you’re already part of what we’re building.
