- The best free dispersed campsites are not found on national forest maps. In this video I discuss how to find the best dispersed campsites and free tent camping in the national forest. Video is recorded at a free dispersed campsite where we tent camped for the night on the banks of the East Fork of the Greenbrier River. Grid coordinates for the free dispersed campsite shown in the video are: 38.6182704, -79.6769121
Here is a link to my related video showing the access road and approach to this campsite: • Free Dispersed Camping...

That's a beautiful site. I'm just imagining laying down in the tent listening to that slow river ripple through the night.
Russell Vineyard Oregon Trails Don’t just imagine, experience it live& in person, Enjoy Mother Nature, while you can. Happy trails my friend.
I'm so grateful for finding your video's! I retired March 31,2020 and look forward to doing some tent/hammock camping with my sons and camping with my wife in my cargo trailer conversion when I get it converted.
Have fun!
Love this. Thank you. I grew up dispersed camping in the Sierra Nevada and now living in Ohio I'm struggling with the lack of public land. This is useful.
I'm glad you found this video useful. Be sure to check out our playlist Free Boondocking in Ohio. Lou
@@LivingOurDreamNow I'm headed to some AEP sites this afternoon. Thanks for what you do.
Some nice sites along the greenbrier river trail too.
Love it!!
I go offroading in the George Washington National Forest about once a month and always utilize dispersed camping and try to find great scenic spots to settle down for the evening.
Prefer it over paying for a site in an overcrowded campground any time!
What type of vehicle do you use to off road?
@@LivingOurDreamNow i have a 2 door wrangler (2015). I’ve been getting more into the overland scene as i have come to really enjoy combining camping and trail riding
Me n my bud and his family would have A BLAST here!
Thx L&M!
Thanks
No problem. Thanks for watching! Lou
Beautiful. Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching!
That's a nice campsite. And you found a flat area too. ☺
Yes indeed! Thanks for watching. Lou
I feel like you knew I was going to ask this exact question, thanks for all the information!
Glad to help!
What an amazing site. And thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching.
Lol I have camped at that exact same spot a few times, good fishing 👍👍 I'm a local
Nice 👍 Thanks for watching! Lou
Thank you for that information. It looks like a beautiful place to camp!
It really is!
We camped at this spot thanks to you just two days ago. Has to be hands down our favorite camp spot. Thank you so much for putting this on here. Just hope no one else finds it. LOL
Music to my ears. Would love to see some photos from this camping trip. We are on both Facebook and Instagram. Thanks for watching. Lou
@@LivingOurDreamNow we arrived somewhat late but I think we have some of the next morning.
@@LivingOurDreamNow I will find you on fb and IG.
I think my blood pressure dropped 20 points just watching this video!
That was a great time with my son. Watch the Abes Run video and you'll see water splash up as high as the hood when I cross the river.
I've been watching a lot of your video's, especially the WV ones and can't wait to get up that way. My question is are most of your trips to the Monongahela NF during the week or on weekends. The places never really look that busy...........which is awesome. lol
Good question! I intentionally scout both dispersed camping areas and affordable campgrounds midweek to better accommodate video production, so as to not encroach on camper's privacy.
Thanks for the review! I looks like your comments were cut off. The grid coordinates are not displayed.
Hi Rick. The grid coordinates are at the very end of the video description. Nevertheless, here they are: 38.6182704, -79.6769121 Thanks for your feedback.
@livingourdreamnow, thanks for sharing such a beautiful spot!
Doesn't dispersed camping on NFS lands require a 1/2 mile separation from vehicle? I just camped in Sumter NF in SC and even with a handicap permit couldn't camp any closer than that to my vehicle.
First time someone has raised this issue with me. All the national forests I’ve camped at allowed dispersed camping from the vehicle or RV as designated. Vehicle Use Maps are helpful in determining whether camping with a motor vehicle is allowed within the applicable forest.
National Forest rules are highly localized, and Sumter NF does indeed not permit car or RV camping in dispersed sites. Most National Forests do allow RV camping in dispersed sites. Where I live near the Hoosier National Forest (Indiana) there is no prohibition of alcohol or firearms in the National Forest, indeed target shooting is permitted under certain circumstances. I recently camped in the Bankhead NF in Alabama, and prominently on the campground bulletin board "ALCOHOL AND FIREARMS ARE PROHIBITED".
what is the name of the road you are on for this site?
Hi Irene. The following video details the route into this campsite: th-cam.com/video/k5RiQ_lr0E0/w-d-xo.html
So you just drive around and find it ?
The scouting route through the forest is the last step. Online research will dictate your route. Campendium, Freecampsites.net are the low hanging fruit, but there are lots of resources available to indicate the existence of potential motorized campsites for dispersed camping. Google Earth is not to be overlooked. Watch the video titled Allegheny Trail within the Free Camping in WV Playlist. Google Earth led me to this campsite and the driving reconnaissance confirmed the existence.
