Al and Cathy - are you using bungie cords for roof rafters on the alcove - you need to do that to keep the rain for collecting - and they need to be taught! Also - If you are on a Pad - bungie cord the alcove frame directly to the stainless fenders - that works great and if you are in a Real...

Re: 4-Sale 2008 550 Ultra # 249 Frank - that is a group site - we can let in whoever we want - heheh - fun

Hi Quinny, All I know is that the Sportwagen Manual says Diesel + Automatic... do not tow. Its OK with the gas + automatic... so it must be a different transmission. As I have previously posted the TDI pulls the CampInn like a dream.. curvy mountain roads - no problem. Dave K

Re: 4-Sale 2008 550 Ultra # 249 Frank... wow... who is going to launch coke bottles at the NWCICO? It is the end of an era... you demo'd #249 to Linda and I and started our journey! As Evan says - once a teardropper always a teardropper... so bring that new rig to this years NWCICO. But...

Just had an experience with this... at Dinosaur National Monument... turned the TD around and faced the tongue into the wind (and it was windy - 20+) - then set things up including the wind screens and we were able to make a nice marinara sauce with a simmer...... So = yes they help... but...

Frank, I seem to remember that if you squeeze through the tough spots = you come out on the surface and and hike back down to the entrance ... but the squeeze part is pretty tight...... any you have to climb up a bit before the squeeze... but this is 15 year old memory speaking Dave K

Welcome Tom, Well I'm not claustrophobic but having slept many a night in a two man backpacking tent, the Camp-Inn is a palace. Plenty of room to roll and shift.. no sleeping bag to bind. Warm as toast once you close the doors but with ample fresh air with the ceiling fan and door windows...

Have the side walls and use them in stormy weather - they work great with the skys open and you can even set up a small table and eat in the galley when there is bad weather. Also use them for privacy when taking a sponge bath... Another Alcove Tip is to not only get the bungie cords for...

All, Unfortunately - Linda and I will be out of state on a non-camping trip... really sorry to miss this. I can confirm Frank's side trip will be a good one... the Ape Caves are amazing - enjoy. Also -work has been crazy - so I didn't see Joe's posting about the table extension... and...

Hi Eric and Joan, >and a bunch of kitchen gear for free. As an long time REI member.. I know how you feel... but it means you spent a bunch last year... right! Anyway - congratulations - remember to get some bungle cord rafters... several pictures in the gallery for those... but they...

Wow - that would be a nice Canada bucket list for anyone ...

Pat, Here is a crazy thought... if you go from Salt Creek - you could take a ferry to Victoria BC and visit Buchart Gardens near Sidney - then take the Ferry from Syndey back to Anacortes and Deception Pass. You could even stop in Friday Harbor San Juan Island on the way back for a short...

M&D, No TV or 12v refrig - just lights and water pump... and no issues... we never had electric plug in at any of the sites and no car charging. Having had a boat in the past - it was something I worried about.... but didn't need to... and now with the 7 prong plug wired correctly - it just...

Hi Pat, Yes - Linda and I spent two nights there (Newhalem) last fall and it was beautiful - well maintained - I didn't look at the group site... should have... sorry. Drove up to the pass and did some hiking and fly fishing at a couple of lakes... great weekend. Dave K

Hey Frank, I have a very similar insulated french press... so its great for camping it keeps the coffee hot. I always pre-heat the french press with boiling water (keeps the coffee hotter longer) - pour that water out - then add the ground coffee (5 slightly heaping tablespoons) and add the...

I don't have an answer for the LEDs but just a comment that I have gone 8 full days without recharging the battery (Car wiring was wrong so the trailer wasn't charging) and the Xenon lights didn't wear the battery down far enough to matter. I do have the battery upgrade. So - LEDs would be...

Where I mounted the 7 Pin

OK thanks Jenn... I'll look as well.

Hi Jenn/Frank, Can you send the link to the pictures - would love to see them - it sounds like a totally awesome event. Wish we could have been there. Thanks in advance Dave K

Re: Aluminum and your storage cover! Kelly - just having fun. Hey I remember my first run in with a group of teardroppers in Carnation Washington and as I was looking, one of the TDs was marvelously polished.. it was impressive and attached to a 1948 something... a home built but...
