I don't know about you, but when I dream of a relaxing vacation in nature, I want to do as little chores as humanly possible. Camping isn't exactly the most convenient of activities, so I like to prepare in advance and do everything possible to make it easier, especially in the food department.

It's not always easy to cook over a fire or keep your food fresh, and if you don't bring disposable plates or dishes with you, it can be a huge hassle to clean up. It's by no means a reason to avoid nature altogether, but I have learned a few tricks here or there to make the process better. Here are some of my favorite food hacks for camping that will make your life easier and your trip more enjoyable.

5 little-known national parks that are cooler than their overcrowded brethren

These national parks are way better than their famous counterparts

Yosemite Falls

In the course of my time growing up in a 1991 Airstream Motorhome with a family of 7, we visited our fair share of national parks. I loved every second of it, but there were times when certain famous landmarks and parks were honestly too crowded to enjoy. This was before many national parks started implementing a reservation system, but even these days, I've found that visiting a popular national park during the crowded season isn't my favorite thing to do. Think about it: The National Park Service reported 13 million visits to the Great Smoky Mountains alone in 2023.

During these busy seasons, the only course of action is to opt for lesser-known U.S. national parks. Poetically enough, it's at these places that we created some of our best memories. Here are some little-known U.S. national parks that are just as cool (if not cooler) than their famous counterparts.
