boondocking

I'm looking for a one night stay in the area of West Canada Lake Wilderness in the ADK (NY). We'll be in a 24' motorhome. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Headed to/through MV next late next week on our way to Utah and the Green River. Just wondering were, if at all we can boondock along there, in the park or otherwise. If not that, the any RV park recos? regards, mitch

Hey everyone, so my husband and I just purchased a 2020 Rockwood Mini Lite. We're planning to do about 50% hookup 50% boondocking as we go across the country. We have boondocked before in our previous "home"- a converted Dodge Ram 2500, and recharging the battery was simple (turn on the van)...

Hello, Was wondering if anyone had any advise for Boondocking at Bridge Bay. Below are a few questions i have. I have never stayed at this camprground and it will be our first time Boondocking. I have generators and a portable to empty our tanks. I heard the lines for the dump stations...

Not sure if this is the right forum, but it is electrical related. I've got (2) 6V golf cart batteries (Trojan T105) and they do a great job. I haven't done any hardcore boondocking, but have a concern on the current draw for running the hydraulic pump for leveling and/or slides. Typical draw is...

Staying in Woodland Co. The wife wants to plan every stop we make. I want to head to Estes Park but take 3 or 4 days instead of 3 or 4 hours to enjoy the Rockies. I love my 42’ but trips like this wish it was 21. Any suggestions would be great.

Dear WTW reader, forgive me. I am doing my best to conform to quarantine rules and as much as I want to run to Home Depot (and I could), I remain at home thinking of my next project on my camper build. But this forum is about sharing our thoughts and experiences, even when we are not camping...

Areas for Boondocking in the SW US are easy to locate but has anyone done any boondocking in the New England area? If so, were do you like to go (I won't tell anyone :rolleyes:LOL)? TIA

Newbie issue here: when boondocking, only the fifth wheel hitch jack works; everything else (including the interior 12 Volt lighting) doesn’t work. The battery is new, and the manual breakers adjacent to the battery are functioning (I.e., test current flows through them). What am I missing...

Been doing some reading on this. Heading there 1.18.20 for a few days, have not been before. We're VERY comfortable boondocking, do it more than hookups, have solar, genny, etc. Saw "Plomosa road" and Hi Jolly and a few others. Don't need to be in long term area, any dispersed "flat spot" is...

Hi, looking again at the Alpha Wolf 23RD-L, can choose either the Furrion 12v/110v 10 cubic foot Vibrationsmart fridge, or go with 8 cubic foot LP/110v fridge. Unit comes with one Series 27 battery and the 50w solar charging system... anyone have some real-world "off-grid" timing for how long...

If I'm out in the middle of nowhere and have run out of or am low on fresh water, I can drive my toad to a place to fill several 5 gallons jugs. Now, how do I get the water into my coach's water tank? There is no gravity fill on this coach. Thanks, Bill

Do people who boondock have safety concerns? Are there places where professional boondockers would not camp? We are not a gun family (please - no 2nd amendment comments), but would appreciate remarks about safety concerns (or lack thereof) from those who have boondocked for years. Do all...

Thoughts on this? Would you add it. Or improve upon it? youtu.be/WgF9OoX0-w0

Have been RVing for about 10 years but for the first time I will be staying in a campground with no hookups of any kind. (Water is available but not at individual site). I don't have a generator so I will be relying on battery power only. I understand that I will not be able to use the high amp...

Dry Camping Near Buffalo NY My husband and I are traveling from WI to the Adirondacks today. We'll be on the I-90 corridor in NY and hope to get to the Buffalo area the tonight. Anyone know a good, legit place in that area to dry camp? Some sites have suggested a Flying J in Pembroke. We don't...

Just wondering if anyone knows the best way to get water into the tank using a 5 gallon jug when there is no faucet source available.. I have the valve set to tank and tried adding water lifting a jug above the water inlet on the city connection using a hose connected but the water would not go...

During a recent boondocking trip I noticed a lot of mountain bikes being used to explore the surrounding areas. Also was camped near an old abandoned railroad grade that was converted to a bike/hiking trail. As I keep flipping pages on the calendar and opening birthday cards from my kids I...

Does anyone have any experience with Aims generators? I'm thinking about getting the Aims 6600 inverter generator but I can't find a review anywhere. Thanks.

Hopefully this is not to long and confusing. We have not done much boondocking but now have the opportunity to start doing more. Most of our trips will be a two night stay. I have one 27 series marine battery and an unknown solar panel. Our first attempt I brought an extra automotive battery for...

The plug for our water holding tank somehow broke. Nothing like starting your first day of a week of boondocking with your water pouring out. Where can we find a replacement? We have an ‘88.

7/4/19 - 5 days of Boondocking in the Badlands. This will be a 4th of July we will not soon forget! The day was beautiful. Nice cool weather. Scattered clouds most of the day. Then...Our first night, 4th of July... we had a super powerful severe storm come through. On radar, we were in the "red"...

Anyone from around here? I was going to call the area home depot and sams club.

Buying a 2019 Georgetown XL 377TS. It has 4 flooded coach batteries (2 under the stairs/2 in the compartment behind the stairwell). Thinking they are 6V but not sure. Took a couple of pics to figure the wiring. Looks like they are in parallel to me but not sure. Trying to figure the AMPs to...

I am an experienced RVer but this is my first coachmen. They are a little different. Anyway I have had this RV, a 2018 Leprechaun, for about a year, I know how to fill the water tank using a water hose. I also know how to pump anti freeze into the RV using the Leprechaun's water pump to...
