How to: Turn Your Car Into a Camper
If you’re interested in following suit by turning your own SUV into a camper, here are the basics:
The perks?
The challenges?
What to bring?
Where to sleep?
| After three months, 15,000 miles, 31 states, and sleeping through about 60 summer mornings in the car-bed we built ourselves, we can tell you this: it was pretty great. Challenging, yes, and sometimes frustrating, but worth it. We could park the car — at once bedroom, office, tripod, living room, and kitchen — set up the bed, and be asleep within 10 minutes. We woke in parking lots and trailheads and tiny rest areas, atop a mountain in New Mexico, beside a blue lake in California, and about 100 meters from a Dunkin’ Donuts in Maine. If you’re interested in following suit by turning your own SUV into a camper, here are the basics: 1. Preparation. We first removed the back seats. For our car, we removed a total of eight bolts and the seats were free, but you may consider having a professional help you out. | 2,057 | 2,873 |

For our car, we removed a total of eight bolts and the seats were free, but you may consider having a professional help you out. After removing the seats, we cleaned the inside of the car and cut a tarp to spread under where the sleeping platform would sit. Traveling with two big dogs, we knew the ability to remove the tarp and shake it out without having to move the whole platform would be a big plus.

We began by looking around online (search “SUV + sleeping platform” and see what you find) and cobbled together a design based on our particular needs and wants. Because we wanted to maximize our gas mileage (and because our carpentry skills are pretty basic), we were looking for a simple, lightweight design that would be easy to set up, and outfitted with compartments to help us stay organized on the road. 3.

Because we wanted to maximize our gas mileage (and because our carpentry skills are pretty basic), we were looking for a simple, lightweight design that would be easy to set up, and outfitted with compartments to help us stay organized on the road. 3. Supplies. Our final design required sheets of ¾-inch plywood, two-by-fours, hinges, screws, cabinet-lid stays, carpet, staples, D rings — all of which cost us about $150 at the hardware store. We had some tools and borrowed the rest from kind friends: a drill, table and miter saws, and a staple gun. 4. Construction. | 3,293 | 4,032 |

The total storage area under the platform was 40” wide, 58” long, and 14” tall. The sleeping space, with the extension, was a little over 40” wide and 74” long. 5. Security. We attached D-rings to the underside of the platform and used a ratcheted tie-down to secure it to the cargo area of the CR-V.

Plus, when you wake up you can run inside to use the bathroom and brush your teeth.

The Best of Romantic Ireland

With castles and legends, Old World hospitality and indulgent experiences, epic scenery and fairy trees, Ireland is a world of romantic mystique. Here are some of the key highlights from around the Emerald Isle: > Ardmore and Environs (County Waterford)
Quiet Ardmore offers jaw-dropping sea views, ancient ruins to explore, fun activities, and one of the most romantic hotels in Ireland. Ride horses on the beach with Monatrea Equestrian Centre, or get out on the water in a kayak to see the sea caves (and possibly dolphins). Less adventurous? Explore the medieval ruins of St. Declan’s Cathedral, then do the three-mile cliff walk, starting from the 5th-century holy well, to drink in the dramatic coastal scenery. Or watch the creative process unfold in the studio at Ardmore Pottery and Gallery and shop for local crafts. A road trip north to the House of Waterford Crystal gives you a chance to choose your favorite pattern after the sparkling factory tour. Afterward, drive to the tip of Hook Peninsula to take in the view from the top of the oldest working lighthouse in the world. Romantic Stay: | 0 | 1,268 |

Romantic Stay: At the Cliff House Hotel, floor-to-ceiling glass panels ensure stunning sea vistas from comfy beds and fireplace seating. Have an organic peat and ginger soak for two on the Well Spa ’s terrace, then savor an eight-course tasting menu with paired wines at the Michelin-starred House Restaurant. > The Kingdom of Kerry
This southwest county known as “The Kingdom” serves up legendary landscapes, traditional experiences, and non-stop charm. Take a horse-drawn ride through Killarney National Park to the 15th-century Ross Castle or to the lakeside Muckross House to experience Victorian grandeur. In Tralee stroll past the “Rose of Tralee” statue to the extensive rose gardens (peak bloom is in August), then take in a traditional folk performance at Siamsa Tíre to cap off the evening. | 710 | 2,054 |

Head for the Dingle Peninsula to order jewelry with your name in ogham writing at Brian de Staic Celtic Jewelry in Dingle town, then catch the sunset from Dunmore Head, Ireland’s westernmost point. On the Ring of Kerry, stop in Portmagee for fresh seafood at the Moorings restaurant on the docks, then take a drive to nearby Caherdaniel and drink in the island view with an Irish coffee at the Scarriff Inn. Romantic Stay: The Lake Hotel Killarney overlooks a dreamy 12th-century castle on the banks of Lough Leane backed by Macgillycuddy’s Reeks.

In this cultural capital city, you are spoiled for choice among enticing offerings. Pay homage to St. Valentine at Whitefriar Street Carmelite Church (his remains were sent there in 1836 and devotees still light candles at his shrine), then share a kiss on Ha’penny Bridge, a charming pedestrian that spans the River Liffey. Stroll the National Gallery of Ireland ‘s venerable halls to see Frederic William Burton’s “ The Meeting on the Turret Stairs ,” a 19th-century watercolor of a knight and maiden recently voted Ireland’s favorite painting, then head to the Merrion Hotel for their afternoon Art Tea , where pastries patterned after modern masterpieces highlight the three-tiered service. Take in a classical music performance at the National Concert Hall, and finish the evening with dessert at a Butlers Chocolate Café. Romantic Stay: | 2,054 | 3,559 |

You’ll feel like you are receiving a blessing from St. Patrick when you stand before his statue at Ballintubber Abbey, founded in 1216 at the place where he baptized converts. Walk the streets of Galway, the “City of Tribes,” and buy a Claddagh ring symbolizing friendship, love, and loyalty at Thomas Dillon’s Claddagh Gold .Then take a scenic drive through Connemara, including the seven-mile Sky Road , for some of the most stunning views in Ireland. Kylemore Abbey, a dramatic castle set on the edge of a lake just a few miles from Clifden, is regarded by many as the most romantic building in the country.

It’s chilly outside, and slightly overcast; not the best conditions to be heading into open water for a sunrise paddle. But it’s now or never. This is our last morning on the Slate Islands and I’m keen to make the most of it, camera in hand. We are about five miles off the coast of mainland Ontario, camping on the rocky, forested islets that make up the Slate Islands archipelago on Lake Superior. Currently one of Ontario’s unmanaged provincial parks, there’s very little infrastructure on the islands other than remnants of mining and fishing activities and an old lighthouse (on Patterson Island, the largest of the Slates). One of the most intriguing things about the Slates is the population of rare woodland caribou that can be found there. | 275 | 1,254 |

It was during a cold winter in the early 1900s that a herd of caribou was spotted making its way across a frozen Lake Superior to the islands. When summer arrived and the ice thawed, preventing the caribou from making a return trip, people assumed that they soon would die off. Instead, they thrived—adapting their eating habits to the island flora and happily breeding, free from their traditional predators. It’s not surprising that the caribou have lived for so long out here—at least to Steve Kingston, director of ecology for Ontario Parks. “ Caribou are one of the major evolutionary success stories,” he said to me over dinner one night. “ [ | 1,255 | 2,250 |

They are on the endangered species list, which Kingston attributes to habitat loss. “ The Slates are an important refuge for [the caribou]—it’s the densest and most southern population left in North America—so we are studying them carefully,” he reported.

This is a significant moment because, with caribou being slow breeders and especially sensitive to climate change, witnessing this spectacle represents the promise of a new generation. In fact, it looks like the circumstances that allowed the caribou to cross over to the islands in the first place may just have the power to ensure the species is an evolutionary success story well into the future. “We have this natural experiment happening on the Slates,” Kingston told me, “where some of the caribou are just wandering across the ice onto the mainland during the cold winters when Superior freezes over. So for me, as a researcher, this is a really exciting time.” It’s an exciting time for kayakers and nature lovers, too. A park management plan for the Slates is currently being considered, which will make traveling to and camping on these beautiful and inaccessible islands easier. | 3,728 | 4,985 |

Highlights include hikes of the easy Rim Trails; more challenging hikes that descend from the rims toward the canyon floor on such trails as Bright Angel, South Kaibab, South Kaibab, and North Kaibab; and popular mule rides along both rims or into the canyon (reservations recommended). Two museums—the Yavapai Museum of Geology and the Tusayan Museum —illuminate the canyon’s complex geology and its Pueblo Indian history. Just outside the Tusayan Museum you’ll find the Tusayan Ruin, an 800-year-old remnant of an ancestral Pueblo settlement. | 1,132 | 2,314 |

Drive Across the Deepest Lake in the World

Lake Baikal is so big it makes its own horizon, one not always visible in winter when the snow and clouds can blend with the lake’s ice, eliminating all perspective from the landscape. But what hope is there for proportion on a lake that holds 20 percent of the world’s (unfrozen) freshwater supply? Never mind how hard it is to see anything through all the layers of clothing you’ll need to endure winter temperatures that regularly hit 15°F (-9°C)—and well below! But winter is when you can travel Lake Baikal’s ice on a horse-drawn sleigh, hooves sure-footed and mouths steaming like trains, and best enjoy the mineral hot springs that dot parts of the lakeshore. Or you could take a hovercraft over the ice or drive out in an ice truck, with the heater on high. Dinner comes out of holes drilled deep through the ice—often as clear as a magnifying glass—as fishermen pull up some of the lake’s grayling or omul, a kind of salmon. And this is Russia, so the vodka flows easily, a useful medicine against the cold. | 0 | 1,422 |

And this is Russia, so the vodka flows easily, a useful medicine against the cold. Dark comes early to the winter lake—reason enough to wear those ten layers of clothes. Or do as the locals do—have a couple more drinks and a long stay in a traditional banya steam house. Lake Baikal is on the western edge of the Republic of Buryatia in Siberia, and for the local Buryats, the New Year celebration, Sagaalgan, is reason enough to be on the lake in the dead of winter. Held in February, it’s the perfect time to visit relatives and consume curds, cream, sheep cheese, the alcoholic kurunga —white foods to mirror the white land. Nat Geo Expeditions

Then it’s time to throw old clothes into a bonfire at Ivolginsky Datsan, the sacred Buddhist temple located here; the flames burn away sins. Not that another cup of kurunga would ever be called a sin. How to get there: The lake is easily reached by flying into Ulan-Ude, or taking the Trans-Siberian Railway. Realed: | 1,422 | 2,356 |
