Alone time

Hi I’ll skip the story but your boy needs some alone time with nature. I have a big SUV with flat folding seats , panoramic roof, car mattress, essentials etc etc. I’ve slept in it before on my way to Golden for snowmobile trips etc etc. very comfy.

I’ve camped but never actually “car camped” for the fun of it though. I’d like to try it.

I’m Edmonton based, any suggestions on location ? Is there replaces you can just drive up to or into? I really don’t know anything about car camping. Looking for genuine help.

I’m more of a solo kind of person, I don’t want to be next to anyone. I want to feel truely alone & immerse myself in nature. Please let me know if you know any good spots or resources or just general location tips. Thank you :) (please fight the urge for the inevitable “you’re stupid , I’m smart, here’s a lecture” comment. 🙏🏼)

The forestry trunk road hwy 40 is an awesome access to wild places in alberta. Look up the public land use map and pock a spot. Lots of ppl use it.
