Boondocking tips

We do over 2/3 of our camping at a federal CG w/o hookups. They have a dump station and you can fill your freshwater tank when you pull in. Each loop has several water taps.

Now we all bought our trailers to keep us comfortable when we camp, and to make setup and chores easier. When you have no hookups, you have to learn to make your limited resources last longer - else you may find a cold morning when you have no heat, you have to dump early, etc.

First and foremost,...

Keep it minimal, keep it fun

We've all heard the phrase (especially if you've ever been to Cub Scout Leader training) "Keep it simple, keep it fun". I've discovered over the years of camping to replace the word simple with minimal. Taking too much equipment with you to keep you comfortable results in many different problems:

1. More storage at home for all the equipment
2. More time packing before the trip
3. More time setting up your campsite
4. More time maintaining the equipment...
