A camping setup in a wooded area includes a large dark-colored tent with an attached canopy. In front of the tent are two blue camping chairs, one draped with a black and white striped towel and the other with a flag design. A small folding table holds various camp items including a portable grill. The ground is covered with gravel, and there are trees in the background along with another tent in the distance.
