I'm going to the US from june to august, and my plan was to rent/buy a car, moving from state to state to hike
Thought I'd sleep in the car or in my tent near the trail but apparently it is forbidden to do so in national parks. You can't even camp when you're not paying for a camping spot.
How do you sleep when hiking ? Do you always stealth camp ? I hear the park rangers are very strict and will give you fines if you don't sleep in approved camping ground.
National parks are huge, am I supposed to leave the park to sleep outside ?
The states I'll visit are Oregon, California, Nevada, Utah and maybe Wyoming and Idaho if I have the time.
I'm aware of the tolls at national park entrances and the pass that you can buy for your car, but can you really not sleep legally there ? I won't have enough money to pay for camping every night (I also won't be in national parks all the time, these times I'll probably wing it and stealth camp)
Also I'm looking for cool alternatives to national parks for outing if sleeping there is not possible, could you post cool spots from these states ?
