Camping and kayaking in the 1960s were characterized by a sense of adventure and self-reliance. Campers often used canvas tents, basic sleeping bags, and portable stoves for cooking. Kayaks were typically wooden or fiberglass, and paddlers explored rivers and lakes with maps and compasses as their guides.
It was a time of genuine outdoor exploration, where people sought remote destinations and embraced the simplicity of outdoor life. These wonderful photos were found by Past of a Stranger that show people camping and kayaking in the 1960s.
Most, if not all, of these are from the late '40s to early 50's. 🙄
