    the UV flashlight is amazing for scorpions. i slept on a cot for 19 days in the grand canyon, and felt pretty comfortable. would not have wanted to sleep on ground. i learned on that trip, to always shake your shoes/boots out, before putting on.

    when u are selling to a friend/family, you also need to figure in the 'no hassle' discount. when u sell over the internet, you have no idea of the person, and history. generally i dont put a lot of trust into a stranger, until i have spent some time with them, which u wont with a...

    have you thought about stowing the table in the pickup box, between camper and the front of the pickup box? i read a post somewhere, where the fellow made a narrow box that fit in that spot, and he dropped in various things, with a hinged top with lock.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Eastern Sierra Dispersed Camping Summit: Dealing with The Hordes

    i think the forest service should start charging annual recreation fees. and use this $ for maintenance, etc. many of the major rivers in the west already follow this model, requiring passes, and charge fees (they also reduce entry at times). and this model works, and in my opinion has not...
