Full of national parks and great outdoor areas, the United States is wonderful for outdoor excursions. There's so much more than just fishing. At sites around the country you can stargaze, ride bikes and so much more. Mother Nature is completely equipped to cater to your sense of adventure. With the help of the Internet and industry magazines it's easy to research campsites around the country to help you plan your getaway. The numerous national parks throughout the US are always destination hotspots. The Grand Canyon and Yosemite national parks are just two of the breathtaking opportunities. There are also many camping options that are less traveled but no less amazing. All year you can hike through the Forty Mile Canyon in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Utah. The hike is challenging but doable as you wander among the trees and travel along Forty Mile Creek. For a little playful respite, you can wade or swim in a shimmering pool beneath the canyon's 12-foot waterfall. One of the biggest attractions to mountain hiking is the view from the top, and the San Gorgonio Mountain in California offers one of the best. Rising high above, this trail and its summit are popular among visitors and Californians alike. There you can see undisturbed views of the clouds and sky and look down into the deserts and trees below. Back in the east you can also find great peaks in the Appalachian Mountains and foothills. For a bit of unconventional camping, there are some spots that are catered to you. If you're into skinny-dipping, you want to find the best spot. That may be the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park in Michigan. At Porcupine Mountains you'll see an amazing colorful view of sunset surrounded by trees and soothing waters. You can experience amazing views of the stars from Mount Wrightson Wilderness, Arizona. The bare summit lets you experience the Milky Way and beyond without any distractions. If you want to relax on the beach following your hikes, Hawaii is a wonderful place to vacation and camp. Whether you want to see the view from the highest peak or you want to find fun trails that also lead to the best eateries, your outdoor adventure is waiting for you. There's no better way to appreciate nature than to go outside and experience. From sea to sea, the US is a vast playground waiting for you.
