Download or read book Eastern Sierra and Death Valley Camping with Privacy written by Kimberly Wilkes and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-08-19 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your Ultimate Guide To Finding The Most Peaceful Campsites In The Eastern Sierra And Death Valley Do you like privacy when you're camping? Do you hate camping a few feet away from people who talk loud into quiet hours? Or maybe you don't want a neighbor's light blocking your view of the stars at night. On recreation.gov, it's impossible to know for sure exactly which campsites have the most privacy or are farthest away from the neighbors. Some campsites look like they're too close together, but they have a hill, rock formation, or lots of vegetation in between and have plenty of privacy. Other sites look like they're far apart, but they're in an open meadow in clear view of the neighbors. You might end up reserving a space you thought had lots of privacy only to discover your neighbors are a little too close for comfort. And for first-come, first-served campgrounds, knowing the location of the really good spots means you can beat the crowds to the choice campsites. That's why Kimberly and Patrick Wilkes looked at 3,416 campsites in the Eastern Sierra and Death Valley in order to find out which ones have the most privacy-then they critiqued and rated each privacy-worthy site. The most comprehensive camping travel guide for the Eastern Sierra and Death Valley, the book is the only one of its kind on the market because it describes the privacy of individual campsites, not just the campground as a whole. Kimberly and Patrick will help you carve out your own slice of serenity in the Eastern Sierra and Death Valley by showing you exactly which campsites are the most peaceful and private near Mammoth Lakes, June Lakes, Hope Valley, Sonora Pass, Twin Lakes/Bridgeport, Tuolumne Meadows, Convict Lake, Mount Whitney, Grandview Campground, Death Valley-and everything in between. Campers should buy this travel guide because: It will reduce your risk of camping too close to a loud neighbor because it points out the campsites that have lots of elbow room. When you buy this travel guide, you'll know how far away a given campsite is from its neighbors. While the book can't guarantee you'll be entirely out of sound's reach or that you'll never have a rowdy neighbor, it'll help you find a spot that will minimize the noise-meaning you're more likely to get a good night's sleep and have a peaceful visit. It will make reserving a campsite on recreation.gov a lot easier. It will save you time because you won't have to scrutinize the map to figure out whether or not the neighboring campsite is too close or too visible. You'll know which campsite is the best choice for you, so that when you arrive you won't be disappointed that it's less private than you envisioned. You'll find out about two campsites where you never want to pitch a tent during the monsoonal rain-or risk waking up in a flood. You'll know which campsites are plagued by road noise-and which roadside campsites are so nice it may be worth bringing along ear plugs. Anglers will find out the best campsites where you can fish a few steps away from the picnic table. The handy guide at the end of the book lists each of these campsites. The paperback version features black and white photos of select campsites. The Kindle version features color photos for Kindles that have color capability. Eastern Sierra And Death Valley Camping With Privacy will save you the time of having to search for that perfect campsite because you'll know exactly which campground to visit first or which campsite to reserve online. If you like privacy while camping, this book will give you the peace of mind of knowing the campsite you reserved is exactly what you wanted, allowing you to relax and rejuvenate in one of the most beautiful places on the planet.

Download or read book The WPA Guide to Maine written by Federal Writers' Project and published by Trinity University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1930s in the United States, the Works Progress Administration developed the Federal Writers’ Project to support writers and artists while making a national effort to document the country’s shared history and culture. The American Guide series consists of individual guides to each of the states. Little-known authors—many of whom would later become celebrated literary figures—were commissioned to write these important books. John Steinbeck, Saul Bellow, Zora Neale Hurston, and Ralph Ellison are among the more than 6,000 writers, editors, historians, and researchers who documented this celebration of local histories. Photographs, drawings, driving tours, detailed descriptions of towns, and rich cultural details exhibit each state’s unique flavor. WPA Guide to Maine focuses in on the very tip of the Northeastern United States, also known as the Pine Tree State. With a short but comprehensive description of Maine’s history, two of the most enthralling sections of the guide include essays on Maine’s folklore and maritime heritage.
