Every week we’re rounding up camping and outdoor news, along with stories you might have missed from The Dyrt Magazine and around the web. This week we also feature an adorable Lake Wenatchee camping review from Beth E. and her family. We can’t wait to see what reviews come through next!


Camping comes in many forms. This week, we learned that camping can include a backcountry wedding. Or surfing. Or a big batch of breakfast hash. Or all three!

Wherever you’re sleeping outside, and whatever the motivation, we hope you make the experience your own. Let’s dive into the stories that inspire us to pack up our tents and whatever else we might bring along for the ride.

“This campground was awesome! We got super lucky and found one camp ground someone must have canceled and we were able to book the camp ground! The lake is absolutely beautiful and there are quite a few trails to do around the lake! Also they offer rentals for sup boards and kayaks too.”  — The Dyrt Camper Crystal F.
