Single-handedly solving nothing

Otter Lake Provincial Park – review

October 15, 2023 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

The lure of fossils is strong in this household. Well, with half of it, anyway. Our day at American Fossil Quarry only poured gasoline on the embers of this passion. This led to the purchase of a self-published book showcasing rockhounding locations throughout parts of British Columbia as a Christmas gift. That book, in turn, […]

Knutsford Campground – review

October 8, 2023 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

If I was still a teen, I’d have stayed at Knutsford Campground because of the name alone. Being an adult, I’m inclined to say I booked here for convenience, with a sprinkling of exasperation, but it was mostly because of the name. Don’t let age mislead you regarding maturity. The first day of our boys’ […]

Buffalo Bill State Park – review

October 1, 2023 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Much like the girls all getting prettier at closing time, the campgrounds get a lot more appealing as departure day approaches. This is all the more true when your original reservation gets cancelled due to flooding and you’ve got less than two weeks to find an alternative. For us, Buffalo Bill State Park was that […]

St. Mary Campground – Glacier National Park – review

September 24, 2023 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Perhaps I’m a victim of proximity ignorance, but I had no idea Glacier National Park (the US version) was so popular. Popular and surprisingly difficult to reserve campsites at. I was so worried about getting spots at Yellowstone National Park, I was dumbstruck when my first attempt to book at Glacier failed. Located in the […]

Lewis & Clark Caverns Campground – review

September 17, 2023 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Lewis & Clark Caverns is Montana’s very first state park. Before earning this footnote, the caverns were under the care of rangers from Yellowstone National Park. After a quarter century of shenanigans with local entrepreneurs, the national parks service waved the white flag and offered it to the state of Montana. Montana jumped at the […]

Colter Bay Campground- Grand Teton National Park – review

September 8, 2023 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Go big or go home. When camping in Grand Teton National Park, the “go big” portion of that adage definitely refers to Colter Bay Village and it’s more than 300 site campground. The village concept employed in national parks like Yellowstone and Grand Teton is interesting. Before witnessing them myself, I thought it was nothing […]
