Campfire Conversation:
It’s a Campfire Conversation about… camping! Eric and Ana welcome Apurba Banerjee into The Cabin to
go “under the tent” and talk about everything from camping to glamping – including what helps define
the differences. Select locations for some of the best camping – including great activities, beautiful
scenery, and more – include many of Wisconsin’s state parks. Shout-outs go to Big Bay, Wyalusing,
Kegonsa, Interstate, Peninsula, Rock’s Island, Devil’s Lake, Mirror Lake, Yellowstone Lake (an Audio Dave
“hidden gem” from back in the day), and Hartman Creek, among others. Units within the Kettle Moraine
State Forest, especially Lapham Peak, get discussed as well as select recreation areas like the famous-
but-often-overlooked Bong Recreation Area. We also cover some camping areas that are businesses,
including Rustic Timbers in Door County and some of the Jellystone Park options, which often pair
family-focused activities along with whatever variety of camping you choose. For a more “out there”
wilderness experience, you can camp at locations all over the North Woods, including along the Peshtigo
River in Oconto and Marinette Counties where you go waterfalling nearby. Also covered are the Apostle
Islands and Apurba shares the story of Camp Wandawega, which offers a throwback experience. You’ll
want to pitch your tent after enjoying the episode!
