    Big Sur - Fernwood Resort Campground

    We recently spent a few nights in Big Sur this January for my wife and I to celebrate our birthdays. We stayed at the Fernwood Resort Campground in Big Sur very close to Pfeiffer State Park. This was just our first time at this campground, but we can highly recommend it. The sites were large...

    Yosemite Np In Winter Without Rangers

    Looks like it was still a great trip! I don't think I will share this one with my wife though. She didn't really care for the momma grizzly that strolled through our camp one night this summer in Yellowstone. I've encountered black bears in Yosemite many times and don't really bother me, but big...

    Mudflaps Mud Flaps Vs. Toyota 4runner

    @Cary Winch So, I think we figured out what has caused the serious deformation of our right mud flap. It is now clear to us it is actually being melted by the Toyota's exhaust! See images below. Our TV is a 2008 Toyota 4Runner, and I am not sure if this is common to only this model year or...

    Valley Of The Gods-utah

    Do you recommend any particular area to camp overnight? We're just trying to decide if we want to book something at a camp ground at Monument Valley, or if there's some great sites at Valley of the Gods (free BLM!)

    New Owners Of #????

    Great looking 550! Welcome the CI family. We just bought our new 560 in June, and I added the ARB awning. We love it, and also added the ARB side room tent, which is super easy to snap in when you want a side room for gear or changing. We're also going to add the Yakima roof tent next summer for...

    Death Valley For New Years 18/19

    We're planing to spend several days in Death Valley between Christmas and New Years this year. If there's anyone else heading that way, let us know. We will probably spend a few days in Furness Creek, camped at Texas Springs, and then off towards the Race Track. The weather and stars should be...

    Window Cleaning Products?

    The plexiglass windows clean very well with a plexiglass cleaner like (PLEXUS® AIRCRAFT PLASTIC CLEANER from Aircraft Spruce), but can be expensive. Normal, every day Pledge, used for furniture is basically the same thing with lemon scent. Both of these products are used on general aviation...

    Great Fitted Sheets

    If you're looking for really nice fitted sheets, cotton up to 600 thread count or flannel. I completely recommend Bedder Bedding (The finest in custom-made bedding.). I found these guys on another tread about 6 months ago and ordered a set of 600 thread count sheets 58x80" by 5' deep. They can...

    Carbon monoxide monitor reset?

    I have a new 560 with the furness and no electronic CO detector. The simple solution is a visual detector, CO poisoning is slow process and just the presence of the contaminate in the air is fair warning. I use a simple replaceable detector, commonly used in aircraft QUANTUM EYE® LONG LIFE...

    NAME THAT DROP

    We just picked up our new 560 Ultra in June, and have since hauled her around the western US getting to know her. We've seen several good names we liked, but wanted one of our own that made sense for us. We nicked named ours the little "Tear Dragger" in likeness to our little Cessna 170, which...
