I've been using a Panasonic Lumix fz300. It's water and dust sealed, has a 600mm equivalent zoom, and is less than $400 bucks. Oh, and it shoots 4k video. I use Adobe Lightroom to "develop" the photos if they need any tweaking. I too come from the old film development days. Sent from my...

Yes, I am waiting until after the "big blow" Sunday. The Dark Sky web site has a 7 day forecast which I hope is accurate. I am chasing 70 degrees and am looking for that in Pahrump before I commit. [emoji23][emoji120] Sent from my Moto E (4) Plus using Tapatalk

Probably. When I did caravan zooms, April was when HOWA folks moved north. Sent from my Moto E (4) Plus using Tapatalk

The only 2 batteries I'd look at are the Battle Born Lithium and Renogy Smart Lithium. Your going to pay a lot, but you won't need a battery for many years to come. Keep in mind Lithium batteries don't like cold temps, but neither do I, so we never have a conflict. Good luck Sent from my Moto...

I have been shooting landscapes and wildlife for many years and don't feel the need to stop now. Anyone looking to improve their relationship withe their camera, come on by. https://photos.app.goo.gl/anotjBepjKFcKKFf7 Sent from my Moto E (4) Plus using Tapatalk

I'm waiting for the weather to be more consistent before I move to Pahrump. Anyone else in the same position looking for a good spot? I'm at the "Old 95 BLM" just south of I-40. Mile marker 201 on Arizona Route 95 (the new one). It's quiet and Sandy, so don't stray off the road. You WILL get...

Wheeler Pass road seems to be the place to go. It starts in the flat desert and climbs towards Mt. Charles. Look for a grand caravan with awnings on it. That's me, the Wandering Knight Sent from my Moto E (4) Plus using Tapatalk

I started out of Michigan on July 5th, 2020. Taking my time, I traveled the US highway system to Leadville, CO. I hung around there and Salida until Labor Day then moved to Hesperus. With snow and bear knocking on the doors, I slipped down to Flagstaff then Mongollon Rim, then Sedona. By...

Forest road 705 north of Camp Hale. Forest road 415 (lily lake) past the sand pit just north of town off us24 Sent from my Moto E (4) Plus using Tapatalk

Many of the sites that are "off the path" have no camping/motor vehicle signs. Only the sites right on the road are open. I had to drive in 5+ miles to find a opening. It's very clean though, and while there is a lot of orv traffic, the dust is low and the noise is manageable.

Change of plan. Heading to Avon Walmart, then back to the north side of Leadville. Going to explore forest road 705 near Camp Hale.

My favorite site so far has been the dispersed camping south of Turquoise Lake near Leadville Colorado.  Good T-Mobile service, fast moving creek for free water, mostly flat sites in varied sizes. 9800 feet elevation.  Second place is Shavano wildlife area near Poncha Springs, Colorado. Again...

I would like find fellow travelers in Colorado. I am currently in Leadville area, and will be moving towards Silverton at the end of July.

I left Michigan on July 5th and made it to Leadville Colorado to escape the heat. I will be remaining in Colorado until it gets too cold. My next move will be on August - probably toward Silverton or lower elevations.  I'm going to forgo sight seeing until I get the kinks worked out of this new...

Only been on the road for 3 weeks, but I have been wearing long sleeve polyester shirts to keep the mosquitoes at bay. Long pants as well - polyester. Polyester dried fast and breaths cool.  Mornings in Leadville are 40 degrees, so a light jacket is required. A good rain coat never hurts. Shoes...

I found a 2.5 gallon bucket at Meijer. It's a sawed off 5 gallon, so a Gamma lid fit perfectly. Ends up, a 4 gallon bag is too small, so I use 8 gallons doubled up. I, throw, sawdust in between uses and keep the pee separate. The Gamma keeps the smell at bay between uses. However, the smell...

I picked up one of these. It gets about a quarter mile reach.  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VW4M0WO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_rLKD3uvbHHa19

I'm using a Kindle fan less PC. Dual core i7, 16Gb RAM, SSD boot drive and external spinners.

Summer in Leadville Colorado is super comfortable. A free dispersed forest with many and varied sized spots and good cell service is located south of Turquoise Lake. From Leadville, the Lake County Aquatic Center, take fr4 west. At the 3 way fork in the road, take the middle - fr48. Before you...

I found good cell coverage at the state forest disperses camping area south of Turquoise Lake. There are tons of sites from single vehicle to 5th wheel to 5+ group.
