    San Juan NF closed as of June 12

    So tonight I got to Cortez. Was planning to work my way east on Hwy 160 boondocking to check out pretty places and just mosey about. Started looking at the big wonderful (and new to me) interactive map of ALL national forests. So I click on a few actual campgrounds to see what the areas are...

    West of Flagstaff boondocking, A-1 to be logged???

    I just left the Flagstaff area after a little more than a week trying out a couple of places. A-1 Mountain, of course, after all I've read about it. I would say at least half the trees are now marked with orange slashes. I am reasonably certain this means they are about to be logged... someone...

    AZ residency at Coyote Howls East???

    Since this section includes mail handling, I thought it might be best for my inquiry into how others have found Coyote Howls to be for a residency in AZ? I'm told that most snowbirds have left the area as it heats up, but I have just become able to hit the road again after being in the South and...

    Land Cruiser Ultimate 4x4 camper? VIDEO review

    I viewed a video mentioned in another thread and then the next YouTube video came on while I was distracted. It was done by a pro journalist mainly in South Africa. It starts off slow with him back in in the UK and just talking, so you have to be patient or let it load and then skip over the...

    Current try to privatize more Public Lands

    I am hoping Bob or others who keep up to date on legislation will take a look at this information right away. One of RVSue's regular commenters had informed her of this issue and need for sending your objections to the key lawmakers. Sue then had him post it on her own blog to inform readers...

    WY Bighorn Mtn Foothills Cracking Up

    Especially since Bob has blogged about so many beautiful drives and boondocks in Wyoming, I thought some would be interested in this recent development. It seems a maze of deep "cracks" or breaks have suddenly shown up on some remote ranchland. In some of the fissures, the drop is several...

    kitchen on shelves with draining sink??

    I'm not sure about having this subject in this section of the forum, but it has a "kitchen" build that could apply across all types of vehicles. In a new-person introduction, member johnny b  posted a pic of a kitchen he liked made on metal shelving.  Today, I saw something a bit more intricate...

    Harbor Freight Quality, Comparisons

    Anyone have experience with using tools like that machete from Harbor Freight? Are their items like this sturdy enough to work and hold up for a few years?

    Must be military surplus?? Big doesn't say it.

    I was surfing through a nice little RV blog and found a post of a vehicle that THEY saw and photographed. Sorry I can't in good conscience pull the photo and show it here. I have a link to their post that has many pics: http://r-v-ino.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-ultimate-rv-boondocking-rig.html...

    No Refrigeration MEALs for One

    My good friends would all laugh if they heard I posted ANYthing having to do with cooking, but I came across what I consider an interesting older blog post (thanks to Pinterest) that many here might enjoy reading. The woman lives on a boat but did a post on what she was taking for a TENT camping...

    350 watt RV air conditioner - could it work?

    From Pinterest camping ideas I saw this. Looks like it is only available in Europe???? But says it draws only 350W? Thought some of the tecinically minded might want to weigh in on if this could work for small spaces like vans and off of a house battery? http://www.coolmycamper.com/

    Sorting out existing antennae

    I'm going to be looking into getting a signal booster for my mobile hotspot, but I first need to understand if any of the 3 antennae installed in my van could be used with the booster. My van was a former public transit van, so I'm sure one antenna was for local radio contact with the home base...

    novelist soon to be on the road again

    Hello to forum folks! I've corresponded a bit with Bob Wells over the past year or so, and found his blog and book to be life changing. I've got a hotspot now so that I can check into the forums on a more regular basis, so I thought I'd officially say hello. I got in just over 6 months of solo...
