That's why a lot of campers these days are enjoying the seclusion of "boondocking," or camping away from traditional campsites. About three years ago, California architecture student Kyunghyun Lew set out to design a camping trailer light enough to tow behind his wife's Mazda3 or almost any SUV. Another company, Opus -- founded in the United Kingdom but with its US headquarters in Pittsburg, California -- offers rugged folding camping trailers. For a starting price of $47,500, it's more like a traditional metal-bodied camping trailer with a cloth-walled extension that unfolds from the roof for extra space. Winnebago, meanwhile, recently unveiled the Revel, a new off-road-oriented version of a traditional Winnebago motor home.
