Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Let's See Those Deer Camps!

Some of you all have some fancy camps. Nothing wrong with that, but it isn't for me.

For deer, elk and antelope here in WY, I usually sleep in the front seat of my pickup. If I eat dinner at all, I just heat up a can of stew on a small single burner stove on my tailgate and eat packaged stuff for breakfast and lunch. I like to be mobile and being fancy with the cooking doesn't work well for me.
If I am in the backcountry for elk or deer, I have just a small dome tent and my jet boil with Mountain House.

If it is going to be dry, sometimes I just use a tarp, like at snowCOCK camp this year.


I have a nice wall tent, but way too much time and energy is wasted getting an actual camp set up for me. When I hunted off horseback it was sometimes different, but not always.
