The Dyrt’s new feature makes finding campsites easier than ever

The Dyrt adds new drive time feature to their Pro offerings

There are so many amazing camping apps out there, but Dyrt is one of my favorite apps for finding campgrounds, RV parks, glamping sites, and reviews to help you make informed decisions. Their premium offering, Dyrt Pro, already gives members access to many extra filters and tools to help users find exactly what they’re looking for. But there’s a brand-new feature called Drive Time that promises to be particularly helpful.

Drive time is a new tool that allows campers to instantly find campsites within a predetermined amount of driving time from their current location. If you already have Dyrt Pro, try it out by clicking “Drive Time” on the map. Then, use the toggle to indicate your preferred driving time. The app will then give you all options that match your specifications.

If you’re not in the area, though, you can still use this feature. Instead of “current location,” you’ll just need to add the name of the city or town you’re hoping to stay in. After clicking “view results,” you’ll get everything you need to help make a speedy decision.

“Camping is the quintessential weekend activity, but that also means that your time is fairly limited,” says The Dyrt CEO Kevin Long. “You don’t want to spend so many hours driving on Friday and Sunday that it makes your Saturday less enjoyable. Drive Time is the perfect way to immediately unlock every camping option available to you within your preferred driving time. It’s also great for discovering new places close to home you never knew about.”
If you don’t have Dyrt Pro, you can still try out this new feature using their seven-day free trial.

Getting a passport will be a bit easier

A U.S. passport unlocks your travel dreams. With one, you can enter and exit foreign countries as you please — whether on a ski trip to the Swiss Alps or a summer getaway to Mexico. But the application process can take weeks or months, and when you need urgent service, you could be in a bind. Without an office nearby, you could get lost in a sea of online forms and call trees. 

To help, the State Department plans to open several new passport agencies nationwide. These physical locations will cater to travelers who need immediate assistance and can’t make the trip to a distant office. Let’s take a closer look.

After enjoying an easy camping meal around a warm campfire, breaking out a nostalgic dessert such as s'mores is customary to finish the night. But for those who prefer a savory snack to end their day in the great outdoors, the Solo Stove Popcorn Maker whips up batches of popcorn quickly and easily.
Solo Stove isn't new to the scene when it comes to reinventing the fire. The company is known for creating fire pits that are virtually smokeless, from large backyard bonfire pits to portable models.
The Solo Stove Popcorn Maker takes this technology to the next level, creating a product that can evenly roast kernels without creating a lot of soot or burnt pieces. It holds up to 3 quarts, perfect for a group of hungry campers.
How exactly does the Solo Stove Popcorn Maker work? It's simple. Add 1/3 or less of a cup of kernels; any type will do. Then add your favorite oil and salt, and place the pot on a grate above the fire. In about five minutes, you'll have hot, fresh, perfectly cooked popcorn ready to enjoy.
