Follow-up Review For everyone with a Kelty Carport.... Thought I'd revive this thread and request follow-up comments about using your Kelty Carport. Are you still satisfied with your awning and do you still recommend them? I love the look, weight and size...seems like a perfect match for a...

Great report Enjoyed your write-up and pictures....it makes this Idaho boy anxious for good weather...IT SNOWED TODAY!!!! Urgh!!! :mad: Wish we were closer to the festivities....looks like a great time.

I've been contemplating adding a roof rack basket to carry extra gear like chairs, roll-up table, shower tent, wood, etc. I've considered Yakima, Thule, Baja, and Black Widow. I have the factory installed aluminum racks, with an optional rack installed in the middle of the camper...

Storage place? Where do you plan to store this during transport?

Pett vote The Pett got our vote and works great. It's sturdy, comfy to use :thumb:, and packs up small for storage (ours is fits perfectly under the couch in the Hawk's cubby hole storage next to the door. Wag bags are great and easy to dispose. They also fit the bill for being "green"...

Stan, I'm planning on heading down from Boise. Look forward to it.

Idaho has incredible, diverse areas to explore. We love to head out and explore the Owhyee Mountain range during Spring before it gets HOT. There are areas in the Owhyee Mountains that are similar to Southern Utah with amazing rugged and red canyons. There are historical sights to checkout as...

Nice setup Nice to see another FWC based out of Boise. Good looking setup!

Tempting Some of us Northwest guys need some sun..... how about Hells canyon in the spring? Always remote, warm, sunny..... Hells Canyon sounds very tempting for this Idaho guy...

Inspiring... You guys are inspiring for those of us who are shivering in the cold and dreaming of the day the sun will come out and shine. Thanks for the great reports everyone! :thumb:

Here is how I mount mine. The cable provides security for the water can holder and shovel. Dsrtrat, your setup looks very entertaining. Have you posted how you mounted your AT rack, if so I've missed it, if not would you mind posting how you mounted...and with additional pictures. Thanks!

Hi everyone, As I continue to "move into" our new Hawk I've been thinking about what can be stored in the narrow space between the Hawk's front wall and the cabinet. Does anyone use this narrow space to store anything? Ideas, ideas, ideas???

You're an inspiration.... SunMan, love the pictures and write-up, that's beautiful county! How's the crowds in the Summer? Would you recommend it for a Summer trip? The pictures your Tundra/FWC setup was huge influence while I learned and then planned our purchase :thumb:.

Grey water container Great pics and write-up. I've been looking at the same grey water tank you're using, I believe it has 5 gal capacity, correct? How is it functioning for you compared to a simple bucket or collapsible container? Where do you store while on the road. Thanks, Glade

Question...did you have any problem with the on board water system or water pipes in the Hawk freezing? On my recent trip west, I was worried about going into real cold regions because of the possible freezing. It gets down right cold around here so I had previously winterized the water system...

It's been killing me, I've had the new Hawk for a month and haven't been able to use the new campler other than for football tailgating and a portable office. This weekend I didn't have any committments like the rest of the family did so I ventured out solo. I headed up to Deadwood Reservoir...

Interior Closet/storage pictures Here's a few interior pictures to illustrate how the storage area turned out. The footprint area is 19"x21" which is unfortunately too small to fit a Engel MT35 or 45 fridge/freezer. If the storage area was actually extended so it was flush with the...

It's official...our new Hawk was delivered LATE Thursday night. This forum has been so helpful when we were initially evaluating the merits of acquiring a FWC. Additionally, I can't say enough good about Stan @ FWC. Buying something like this sight unseen, well, for me, it was a leap of faith...

Great Adventure! Thanks for the write-up and pictures. We traveled the Magruder Corridor in July and were the first full size vehicles to get through this year....we cut out dozens of fallen trees, it was awesome! It saddens me to hear of fires in the area. We were shocked by how much of...

Anyone with experience using a Engel fridge and camper together? I have a Hawk FWC on order and am wondering if anyone has installed a 12 volt accessory plug on the outside of your camper to run a portable Engel fridge? My thoughts are to move the Engel fridge outside while parked. I'm...

Perfect timing.... This thread is perfect timing! I just ordered a Hawk without the icebox and added a matching cupboard door. We ordered it this way based on comments on this forum regarding the usefulness, or lack thereof, of the standard icebox. Everyone's comments and innovative ideas...

Are those Idaho license plates on your motorcycle?

I'm another lurker that's facinated a FWC Hawk will fit on my 06 Tundra DC. I appreciate all the info provided by everyone. Unfortunately I have yet to see in person a FWC, factory says they don't have record of any customers in Southwest Idaho. Since I haven't been able to touch, feel and...
