I have a 2020 Hawk Shell, I installed 200 watts solar panel on the roof (not a hard task). I recently went away from a ice Chest to an. Iceco JP50 and a Bluetti EB70s. I have to original single AGM battery that wasn’t up to the task when new so I only rely on it for lights and the furnace. I...

IMHO there is nothing as elegant as a nicely executed telemark turn. That is all we did for many decades. We were actually at Timberline standing in the lift line with Karhu Extremes and Asolo 3 pins when someone exclaimed “Leather boots! Cool!” I knew my time was up. I also remember saying to...

I carry one of these in my truck full time. We have been using it for over a year around camp etc and it has held up great (my wife even pulled it out to garden with!). If I’m heading to the beach I might grab a long handled shovel. ?? But as far as using it for actual recovery it like my boards...

OK that is pretty cool!

I don’t have a Trasharoo but I do have an old dry bag that I attach to my fuel can and holder on the outside when I’m out for more than a few days. Like others have said it is used for cans etc, other than those we actually produce very little trash ourselves. The bulk of it is from cleaning up...

Nice job, thanks again! Great music as well. Maybe one of these days…

Hey Vic, how have those flip up chairs working for you? I just went back to your build post last week and have been thinking of doing the same. Also dealing with a 83 pound black lab!

Thanks! I need all the education I can get.

I’m angry, but my sadness is stronger. I just don’t get people. And if it was kids that is even worse. To have hate like that at a young age.

I’m in trouble now. I’m going to be baking all the time!

Huh. My 2020 Hawk doesn’t have a temp thingy. Is that an old thing or a different model? I have been thinking of swapping to a Max Fan. Would that solve these issues?

I’m using the Mule bracket on my Hawk with ARB 10’ awning and have been down some rough rocky trails with no problems.

Has anyone removed the new (2020) dimmable LED lights? We would like to make them not so white and add some lens gel. I have seen where this was done in the past but my lights don’t look like the ones in the 2019 post. There is no “plug” to remove, they seem to be hard wired and screwed directly...

There were things that I would have changed/added but the fee kept me from doing it. I just wonder how much money FWC is loosing with that policy. I realize the paperwork etc is a pain but how long does the initial order sit there before the work on that particular unit starts? It would seem...

My 07 Tundra did not have a cam so I got one of the Type S wireless solar ones. It was a license plate mount but I mounted it halfway on the screen door. It’s inside so protected from dust, mud etc and still gets sun. I have had it over a year now and am very satisfied.

OK, note to self, don’t run into a tree or barrier in my Tundra. At least not with the wife in the passenger seat. It was all pretty darn scary! And interesting to see how different parts were affected like beds, wheels etc. FWC make one to fit a Honda?

Gee I see the “Tin Can Tourists” are still alive today. . That would be a nice name for a rig if it wasn’t derogatory. Every time I pick up cans and trash at a camp spot now I will think about this. Thanks for the posting. Also I think the real hard part would be wearing a neck tie!

Oh I don’t know, you’re the writer, maybe “detours”? I don’t think you could hardly call any of that a distraction. And those bee hives! What a joy to see! I think you two have shown perfectly what these rigs are meant for. Thanks for sharing with us.

Nice report, thanks! I can’t wait for part 3. I’m thinking ther has to be a better word than “distractions”

Thanks! What a treasure the land in the NW is, thanks for sharing.

Nice camper. Heck they’ve even got a washing machine what’s the rush!? I would like to know what that AC unit was and how was he running it “nonstop “?

Thanks Bill! We really want to get back to that part of the country and don’t know how we missed those beautiful spots but hope to find them when we return. The photos are fantastic!

Yes it is fun to dream! Thanks for sharing andI look forward to the next chapters!
