snow

Wondering how many folks will be doing the snowbird thing, vs. staying put, this winter. If you like, you can respond as if you'd be boondocking long-term, not in an RV Park, this year. Don't need long responses on the 'why' or 'why not'... just looking to see how many will be traveling away...

Some of you may have actually experienced this, so I'm looking for insight for future occurrences. My FWC Hawk/Ford F150 combo was parked on my lot near Fairplay while I was spending the summer in my cabin on said lot. On Monday the temps were in the mid 70s and 5-10 inches of snow was...

I’ve read all the threads on DX3 and cold weather— thanks everyone! Now we find ourselves camped in a snowstorm (20 years since Colorado had one this early and this heavy). We’ve been coming here for many years and have never seen this much: usually a few flakes! Just wanted to add my comments...

I’m new here and last year I purchased an ‘04 FR snowlite trailer for my sleds. It was almost impossible to find any info on this trailer until I came across this site. Found some good info and was able to break down the VIN and it comes up a travel trailer, Salem laminated towable. I don’t see...

Do you think it is feasible to live in an Aframe as a snowbird year round when I retire? It would only be me and I am used to camping in a tent for weeks on end and love tent camping. I do not want to live in large RV or Motorhome as I like to spend lots of time outdoors.

We have been self isolating for several weeks at our home in AZ. We have a small RV (Dynamax Isata) and want to drive home to our rural property in NE WA. Since we are used to spending our 2 road nights at non-campground spots, I like to think we’ll be OK. We have masks and gloves for diesel...

Will be driving from Lincoln, NE area to Custer, SD in early May and not excited about doing any mountain driving.... Any suggestions how to avoid that???

On our way from Moab, UT to Golden CO, we stopped in Evergreen, CO at the Walmart to shop. Also we needed a place to stay the night because our destination at Clear Creek RV Park in Golden would not be available until tomorrow. We were aware that a winter storm was blowing in tomorrow so we...

First time snowbirds. We are visiting Florida from Michigan. Planning on staying until April. Came down in a Connect 261RB. Went to Lazy Days RV to replace the axles that were apparently bent when I bought it. I didn't think to check that. It is a 2019 model and even though I bought from a...

Good day. We’re new to traveling with a travel trailer and go back and forth from Maine to Florida. We have pets and usually make our trip North and South a 3 day journey. We’re tired of staying in motels that take pets, haven’t found any nice ones in 6 years, and bought the camper for our...

Glad to be in Clermont Florida for winter number 11, any Nova Scotians out there?

I'm glad to see yesterday's snow melting off roof of RV. 2 more months of winter from tomorrow, for first day of Spring! Anybody have any good snow pack pics on their RV's? Make sure you post location, so I can smile and say, "glad I'm not there!"

As a meteorologist I'm always fascinated by atmospheric phenomena... https://www.treehugger.com/natural-sciences/macro-photos-snowflakes-show-impossibly-perfect-designs.html?fbclid=IwAR07UjhOPsC-YUZQaEHu7BULmWVcv5RaKtITdHZCpBJTE5jx1Z-2JGjLzl4

I'm going to be doing some winter snow driving through lots of passes in the Pacific North West this winter. I'm probably going to get some snow tires for the front wheels. Of course, I can't find any offered in the stock tire size of 275/80R22.5 but there are some that are close: Continental...

I've got a trip planned that may briefly (8-10 miles) include snow/ice covered road. In the 14 years I've owned Sprinter based RV's I've never tried to drive in such conditions. Has anyone experience with this? Should I be overly concerned with driving 11k pound rig on snow? I don't plan to...

Good morning all, Curious to see if anyone has experience using a "durable" winter cover for your Travel Trailers? We live in Northern Indiana and will experience A LOT of Lake effect snow and cold. I'd like to cover our new Fun Finder to help protect it from the winter elements. Thanks in...

Hi there, This is question not really related to RV lifestyle, but in a sense it is. We're Canadian Snowbirds, and we are currently preparing for our second winter in southern USA. In 2018-2019 (November 2018 to April 2019) we spent total of 4 months in the US. As we are now getting ready to...
