And just like that, another Base Camp season is in the books. 🌲

North and Cocoa Puff are officially off the road for the winter, and we’re closed for the season.

A huge thank you to everyone who took a Westy out, shared their adventures with us, recommended us to a friend, or followed along this year!

And just like that, we’re sending out our last booking of the 2026 season. 🚐🌲It’s been one heck of a year for North, Coc...

And just like that, we’re sending out our last booking of the 2026 season. 🚐🌲

It’s been one heck of a year for North, Cocoa Puff, and the Base Camp crew. A whole lot of kilometres, new places explored, stories brought home, and some pretty great people behind the wheel.

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who chose Base Camp for their adventure this year.

Now it’s time to send out one final Westy, then give the vans a well-earned winter break.

Thanks for a great season. We’ve already got some exciting things brewing for next year, and we can’t wait to see where the road takes us next. 🤝

Camping season isn't quite over yet, and there's still time for one more adventure. 🌲🚐

Base Camp wraps up for the season on October 15, which means there are still a few good weeks left to squeeze in one more Island getaway.

If you've been thinking about a fall road trip, there's still time to make it happen.

Sometimes... this is all you need. 🌲

A change of scenery, nowhere you need to rush off to, and a little time to simply enjoy where you are.

Turns out, the simple days are pretty hard to beat.

Nothing beats hearing that a trip was just as good as we hoped. A big thank you to everyone who takes the time to leave ...

Nothing beats hearing that a trip was just as good as we hoped.

A big thank you to everyone who takes the time to leave us a Google review. Every adventure, kind word, and recommendation helps more people feel confident hitting the road with Base Camp.

Here’s to many more kilometres and good stories ahead. 🚐🌲

September camping hits a little differently. 🌲

The mornings are cooler, the sun sets a little earlier, and the summer crowds start to disappear. Pack an extra layer, plan to settle into camp before dark, and enjoy having a little more room to explore.

Summer might be winding down, but camping season definitely isn't.

Same Island. Two very different adventure buddies. 🚐🌲

Whether you're Team North or Team Cocoa Puff, both are packed and ready for wherever September takes you.

Pick your Westy, choose a route, and go make the most of one of our favourite months on the Island.

Not every road trip needs the same amount of time. 🚐

Got a quick 2 to 3 nights? Keep it local around Cowichan Lake. Have 4 to 6? The Spirit Loop is calling. If you've got 6+ nights to play with, head west for Tofino, Ucluelet, and everything in between.

However many days you've got, there's an Island adventure that fits. 🌲🌊

September plans look a little like this. 🌲🚐

A few more weekends on the road, quieter campsites, cooler evenings, and absolutely no rush to call camping season over.

We’ve still got some adventure left in us.

September might be one of the best months to camp on Vancouver Island. 🌲

The summer rush starts to settle, campgrounds get a little quieter, the roads are calmer, and the days are still warm enough to make the most of them. Add in cooler evenings around the campfire, and we're definitely not ready to call camping season over yet.

September adventures are waiting. 🚐
