cowboy camping


sleeping outside in the backcountry without an overhead shelter (such as a tent or tarp), usually done in the context of backpacking. the decision to cowboy camp is a calculated one – bugs, rain, snow, etc. are all possible backfires to the decision and can damper the experience.

note that having an adequate shelter is a must, cowboy camping is the decision to forgo setting up a dedicated shelter and betting that conditions will be such that the shelter is not needed (but the dedicated shelter is still present/available should it be needed). not bringing adequate shelter with you into the backcountry is foolish and can result in injury or death.
