boondock

Hello, Any good boondocking spots in the Tetons and near Jackson Hole besides Spread Creek for a motorhome towing a 26 foot trailer. I know thats a big ask. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just completed overlanding journey all the way down the Baja peninsula. Two weeks sufficient to do it, but next time I’ll allow three weeks so I can stay longer at my favorite spots. Entire trip can be completed without ever paying for a campsite. Most sites only accessible with 4wd. You can...

Hello, I am new with boondocking and owning an RV. My RV is 34.5'. I am having a difficult time finding places that are able to accept the size of my RV. Is Huachuca Mountain in Sierra Vista, Arizona a good place for me to boondock? Thanks in advance. Jay

I've been out dry camping with my F-150 which has a Leer cap on it with solar that includes A/C. Its great but I want to take the next step on the RV journey and get an actual RV. I can't decide whether to sell the truck and get an AWD Class B+/C or just get a travel trailer. As a Solar...

I recently purchased a new to me TT that is older (35+) but still in good shape. I have replaced the suspension, axles, and tires, resealed the roof and I am now refurbishing the interior and modernizing some of the systems. I will be doing some boondocking for a week at a time. I am...

I learned a lot by following this forum for a few years now. It might be time to give back a little. Would there be interest here if I shared a map of boondocking sites confirmed to fit rigs over 35 feet? And what would you do with it? I have been adding to the map for the past two years. We...

Hello! We bought a new 2024 Grand Design Imagine 17MKE. It has two lead batteries. When we boondock, the batteries run out of power very quickly. I'm thinking it is due to the 12v electric frig. I even have to turn the frig off at night, and turn it back on in the morning, when the roof solar...

Is there a place to boondock for at least 3 days, between Phoenix and Tucson?

We are planning a trip to Anchorage next spring leaving Nebraska the middle of May. Is boondocking allowed along the Alcan at rest stops, turnouts, etc? We will be pulling an Airstream Basecamp 16X which is fully capable of going off grid. Being able to stop when you feel like it instead of...

Is there a place in or around Las Vegas where you can boondock for at least 3 days this coming winter?

1st time boondocking at the National Seashores down here in the Outer banks with my just prescribed CPAP machine. Wasn't really thinking about it before we left but my CPAP only operates on AC power. I searched for 2 days to try to find a pure sine wave inverter with no luck. Ordered one from...

first time going out and NO sewer available to hook up to. What portable tank do you suggest? Most that I see for sale either split at the seams or where the wheels and axle meet the tank. Leaking anywhere NOT good. Tank on camper holds 27 gal. All comments welcome. Thanks. Pembroke

I have a 2024 Entegra Reatta. When we are in national forests, we don't need the large generator running. We have a small Champion 2000 watt that we used on our two previous 5th wheels. Both were 50 amp and I just used adapters to get from the 50 amp plug down to 110 plug. I have a Southwire...

We are looking at a new RV and one of the addons we can get with it, is a solar system. It includes 3x Furrion 370W panels mounted on top. It also has a 3000W/Pure Sine inverter, 2x 100AH batteries. The cost for this option is around $10,000. I realize they are probably jacking up the price, but...

Hi, I am planning a trip out west for 2025 and would love ideas on boondocking spots that are big rig friendly. We are 68 feet including our trailer. Around National Parks would be especially helpful. I know its a difficult ask but thought someone might know some. Also, wondering if there...

HELP, HELP, I have rented this rig for 4 nights of dry camping! how dose the inverter and generator work together to keep fridge cold? How dose the hot water system keep water hot? Could someone please give me a cheat sheet on what buttons to push and when. They said this coach is 100% Electric...

I just received my Boondocker BD1245PC power control center from Best Coverters. I ordered from them based on many people on this web sites recommendations. I'm not a novice to things electrical both DC and AC. However, I'm stumped on wiring this thing up. Yes I downloaded the "manual" off of...

We are heading up to Grand Tetons for a few nights. All campgrounds are booked. Any boondocking suggestions within reason to the park. Have a 28’ TT. Dave

Trying boondocking at a place no power hook up but water and sewer, I have 2 Li Po 12 volt 100 amp hour batteries. The issue is I do not think the inverter is working , as soon as I disconnect the solar panels from the batteries the lights go out. Also should I can't start the on board generator...

Hello I was just wondering if there are any other boondocking places kind of like Quartzite? We go to Quartzite a lot but I'm interested in maybe checking out other places. Thanks Keith

Hi all, in two days my wife and I will be staying at a harvest host over night. No electric available. My question is, after staying there for 21 hours with an electric Furion refridge running Constantly, will I have enough battery the next morning when it’s time to leave to bring in my three...

We will be boondocking for a few days next week, which means we will be using our diesel generator for power of course. Should we run the Aquahot on electric or burner? Not sure which is best in this scenario. 🤷*♀️. And if on burner, should we just run it during the morning for showers, or...

I just received an unexpected opportunity to do an extended, mostly boondocking trip out west for about three months and I am exploring options. How does one get mail and packages when not staying at a commercial campground? I am aware of things like Escapees, but think that’s for...

There are many many places to boondock in South Texas, but there is a number of days time limit everywhere, except for this one place that offers mostly grass/weed land, a very large place for almost unlimited RV's to park, with no time limit. A few people have been there for years, even year...

1st time at a campground without hookups. I am managing power with a generator and am close enough to a water spigot to fill up my fresh tank to have water for showers, sink and toilet. Just noticed a sulfur smell in the bathroom. Trying to figure out if it's the water, shower drain or toilet...
