Dang, I forgot about that burn in Lamoille Canyon.

Check out the Ruby Mountains / Lamoille Canyon SE of Elko, NV. NFS campgrounds in the spectacular canyon. You access the canyon from the NW side of the range. Could be very busy. Don't know if they do reservations. There's also Ruby Lake Marsh National Wildlife Reguge on the SE side of the...

I've owned a 2017 F150 XLT Crew 3.5L EB 4x4 with the 5.5' bed for 4 years now. I do not have a FWC mounted on this truck. Around the hilly side of PDX for urban driving I see +/- 16 mpg. Cruising the freeway or 2 lanes with the wife, dog and a bit of stuff I can see 21mpg if I am not heavy...

I'm curious about which tow behind you picked up? I've been considering the same for similar and other reasons.

2016 HAWK. $21,500K. Claims it never has been used. Not Mine. Appears to be located in Ilwaco, WA., across from Astoria, OR. https://portland.craigslist.org/nco/rvs/d/ilwaco-new-2016-four-wheel-hawk-camper/7307957266.html

Don't step on the dog when you get down from the bed.

Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback. I've had a vintage Airstream for 16 years but am cautious about how far I take it off pavement. At times I consider picking up a smaller trailer for the backroads and am always interested in receiving input from those with real world experience.

How does your Bigfoot Trailer holdup on your backroad travels.

I have a local friend whose been shopping preowned class B Van's, particularly Chinooks. He saw one last week for $25K, contacted the seller immediately but it was already gone. Same rig popped up on Craigslist last night for $35K. I have no doubt a lot of RV's are being snapped up fast if...

Posted Sunday evening Port Townsend, Washington. 2013 10ft Alaskan $25,400. Looks clean. Not mine. https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/rvs/d/nordland-alaskan-camper-excellent/7295060896.html

See my reference to the PBS Nature show "Big Bend" in part 2 of this thread. The show gave a great deal of time to the return of black bears to the Big Bend area. Apparently, they were common in the early 1900's but by 1944 when the park was established there were no resident bears left. In...

On Wednesday night 2/10, PBS broadcast an episode of the show "Nature" titled Big Bend: The Wild Frontier of Texas. It almost exclusively focused on the flora, fauna and geology of the area rather than any discussion of modern human access. I thought it was a great presentation with superb...

1989 Grandby in Albany, Oregon $3,500 on Facebook. Not mine. Posted 2 days ago around 12/26. Looks like it's in good shape as far as photos are concerned. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/685218578811981/?ref=search&referral_code=undefined

My wife and I have also been using the Mr. Buddy for 20 years at least. Have used it inside 2 different Grandbys, a '71 Airstream and, at times, in a large tent. Am now on my 2nd unit, after the switch on the original started to malfunction. It's been very effective. Like Idahoron, I've...

So, at least 4 years. Testimony to it's solitude. Or, if seen earlier on, about someone's ability to keep quiet.

It does make me wonder how long ago it was installed. I liked the last paragraph. "The beauty of the silver tower was its solitude. In order to be sublime, it had to be alone. And as soon as humans “found” it, it lost its magic. Isn’t this the way of all arches, waterfalls, and slot canyons...

Interesting read on the Utah monolith and also identifies who removed it. https://www.outsideonline.com/2419401/monolith-moab-utah-shitshow

I bought a new 1988 Isuzu Trooper in ‘88 that my wife and I used for camping down the backroads for 10 years till we bought our 1st FWC mounted on an F250 in ‘98. It was a great, utilitarian rig for our needs at the time. We removed the backseat and I built a platform to fill back that we could...

Anyone familiar with who makes this camper? Claims it's a 2021 but I could not find a manufacturer when searching for Overland or Orion on the web?

Apparently, the SLC Tribune is now reporting that Utah Monolith is gone. All that remains is shallow triangular hole and a stainless cover plate that was likely on the top. Some hikers going in to view it reported seeing a truck in the distance with a large metal object in the back. So, the...
