Outside of work, Mike Elmore enjoys traveling and camping in numerous areas of the US, including Southern California.

Although Southern California is most often associated with beaches, camping enthusiasts visiting the area can find numerous opportunities to enjoy a few nights in a tent. The following are a few top camping sites in southern California:

- Leo Carrillo State Park: Consisting of over 130 campsites, Leo Carrillo State Park provides campers with easy access to the beach. The Malibu campsite is located roughly one hour and 20 minutes away from Los Angeles and features token-operated showers, numerous back-country paths, and is dog-friendly.

- Chula Vista Campground: Located in Los Padres National Forest, Chula Vista Campground is a walk-in camp with 12 sites. It is shaded by pine trees and, thanks to its location at the top at Mt. Pinos, provides visitors with a respite from southern California’s summer heat. Further, campers at this site can enjoy such activities as stargazing and mountain biking.

- El Capitan Canyon: This Santa Barbara camping site is perfect for individuals who want to enjoy the outdoors in something a little fancier than a tent. Tucked along El Capitan Creek, this campsite allows visitors to stay in yurts, rustic cabins, and canvas safari tents, all of which are furnished.
