The entries were judged based on how useful and unique the camping information was or if they shared a great camping story. We want to stress that this was a very difficult decision as we had a lot of excellent entries.

Thank you all for participating! Please feel free to participate in our third writing contest. We are always looking for tips, information, advice, and articles on other specific camping areas.

Please feel free to share the articles over the web as well as make comments on the articles. If you can share your camping expertise with others it is always appreciated. We’d love to hear from you!

Thank you to all of you,

The CampTrip Team
