Types of campers at T-bird
Seeing Thunderbird State Park on a Monday morning in June allows an anthropologist to appreciate the different types of nature lovers that visit the lake on summer weekends. Below are four examples.
Site of the ‘bag people’. They like to stuff their trash into small grocery bags hung on the grill.
Here is sign of the ‘pile people’. They are known for organizing waste into neat groups.
‘Broken people’ tend to only leave items no longer of use, such as cracked coolers, faulty chairs and leaky vinyl rafts.
Camp sites of the ‘scatter people’ are quite common at Thunderbird. ‘Scatter people’ function best when consuming large amounts of beer.
