Great thread idea!

Our favorite campground, and the best in the east... Fish Creek Pond! http://fishcreekpond.com/

And of course, no camping is camping with playing around at Camping World...

And for aluminum inspiration...

And for total poshness (same site)... drewling allowed
http://www.vintagetrailering.com/about.html

And a must have for your trailer...
Oops.. sorry.. wife wants the last one LOL.. I better not post this url
 
www.radio-locator.com

Here's a link to find radio stations that are away from your home area when camping. Type in the city/town you'll be near and it'll give you all the AM and FM stations around you. I like it alot.
 
Tarpologists stop proceed with

I found this site while looking for an easy way to make an easy uP Yurt.
Ira, on another thread was showing interest in making a Yurt. I found
many hard to make and permanent Yurts, that were very expensive.
Then I came across this Shelter System. You will note it is made of PVC
and Grip-Clips on tarp or other coverings. It has been used in many
situations from disaster relief to Burning man.

The key to this construction is simplicity and the use of these Grip-Clips.
Tarpologists will find these Grip-Clips interesting as they can attach tarps
to anything. A person could build their own Yurt with PVC or buy something
already designed. You have a lot of versatility.

I have a little experience with making PVC structures (photo stands, reflector stands, etc) and have been thinking on starting to design some covers for the galley and side doors. I like those yurt designs for stability...have to look into that.
I really like that clip, being able to screw them into pipe. there are some types that look like these at Home depot, but have to look into them again. I did learn a way to cut pvc to use as clips that work well on edges.
 
8) Game on, Mr. Steve day- triPPer, good idea and lots of great links on this thread. I would of course add +++ one of my favorite sites


www.pamplingrove.com

because we have lots of beautiful spots for camping all around us in the north end of the state.

  • California Coastal Records Project
  • Just a favorite site to share. The complete California coast, Mexico to Oregon, frame by frame photos taken from an airplane. There is also a time comparison of each photo from 1972 to 2005. If you click on the link under the samples the pic will open to about 720x470 pixels. Click again, opens to about 3000x1900 (detailed!). You can select a place on the map or type in a location. 8)
