Does irv2.com need a new forum titled "drycamping", and another new one titled "camping in the boonies"?

We're in Tucson and wanted to do a short tour of southern NM with the Escape. This petroglyph site is on BLM land and has only two campsites with hookups, but there is dispersed camping allowed. We were wondering if anyone else on the Forum has camped there and can advise about road...

I have a 2023 Thor Motor Coach Tellura. I don’t have an onboard generator. I was wondering if someone could tell me how long the batteries would last dry camping in April with the furnace running at night.

Hi. I'm recently retired, and now looking to begin a solo camping adventure across the US. I'm an experienced tent camper but looking to upgrade to a trailer and having a solid roof over my head. :) Any hints or tips on trailers for a solo camper and his dog would be much appreciated. - Jeff

We need to be in or near Downers Grove, IL at the end of MAY to attend our granddaughters graduation. Any advice for an RV spot in the area that will accommodate a 38 foot Class A and a Jeep Toad? Just need something safe and clean for a few days. Happy Trails, Ron, Marsha, Piper and Daisy

It's warm today, so we're thinking about getting started for the season. We'll get the Roo out of storage, dewinterzie and re-provision in two weeks, prepping for our first weeklong trip in three weeks (for spring break). The DW and I will be off to Starved Rock State Park (and it looks like...

Hi there - I will be headed to Anza Borrego from Northern California in a few weeks and am curious about taking 395, staying in a couple of spots on the way down. If the weather shifts to snow I will not do this, but looking for recommendations for spots/dispersed sites that would be open at...

Hey from South Carolina. Don’t know bout y’all but I’m ready for spring. Camping ,golfing.

CW has a travel trailer I have some interest in, but I've read some mixed reviews about purchasing from them? Anyone with any experiences with them? We had to have a skylight replaced on a Salem Hemisphere under warranty with them, though we had bought the RV from 'Funtown', and had no issues...

The kids borrowed Lagniappe this MLK weekend to camp and surf at La Push on the coast. Sometimes, not often, but sometimes the outdoors in January is perfect here in the pacific northwest.

Joanne and I had a great time at the annual Winter Freeze Out held in January at Tahquamenon Falls State Park. When we arrived at the park, there was about 3 feet of snow on the ground and by the time we left, there was 6 to 8 additional inches of snow. We did go through a lot of firewood. The...

Hello all…we are new to the forum, we have had three class c motorhomes. We purchased our first Thor 2024 Chateau 31WV (Gus 3.0) in July of 2024. We flew to Winnipeg Manitoba to pick it up as we bought it used from a couple in Michigan. They were so nice and drove it to the Pembina border...

Camping/Glamping in the Yukon with Gus 3.0 this is one of our favorite camp spots. It’s about an hour and a half from our home.

We are finally going to try and avoid the cold and snow. We were looking into Texas but it appears that it has some very cold weather in January and February. We are looking for ideas of where to camp for the Winter. Oh and Not Florida.

Back winter dry camping. What do you think, set the furnace to come on and off all night, or just a morning big warm up? If I set the temp to say 68 deg F the furnace will cycle maybe 8 times in the night. The rig cools off quickly even with all windows and under bunks insulated. Or, just...

Hello, I am new here and just bought my 2005 vectra 40. I have noticed that when dry camping the voltage of both house and chassis batteries are declining. I know I can shut off either battery from the battery compartment but that doesn't seem right to me to have to do it that way? Am I...

I picked up a 08 Blue Bird vision 72 passenger convention bus to be a toy hauler and weekend camper for racing. After a few attempts to find folks that wanted to communicate in a positive way and share knowledge...... I gave up on FB. Many searches lead to good information on the forum... So I...

On Nov 6 I wandered west (for me) to the Smoky Hills of Kansas. Yes there are hills in Kansas, in fact geographically there are several distinct areas in Kansas with a wide variety of terrain and wide open spaces. The 11 different regions are: Arkansas River Lowlands Chautauqua Hills...

Our new 'camping' pedal-assist bikes made it home this weekend. There are some smokin' good season-end deals on bikes right now. These ones came from Jenson USA.

As I get closer to retirement, I've thought about getting a seasonal spot. There are some nice ones in a few Provincial Parks, on the water, not an open field with trailer next to trailer and not water/sewer hookup. Does anyone have any experience with seasonally camping in your Escape? No...

We are getting ready to embark on our first trip with our new to us 2022 International 28RB. We depart on Saturday and are headed to the mountains of North Carolina. Over the course of the week we will be there. We will see temps down to as low as 18 but temps during the day for all but one day...

Recommendations for camping in 30' travel trailer around Grand Canyon National Park..... mid November..

What do you use for pizza while camping? We use the Ooni 12"Frya. It is either a pellet oven. Or propane. We have the 16"for home. The Frya does a good job on pies!
