Truck Camping Photo Thread

Camped in the trailer for a couple of days, I still need to try out the RTT

 

Wow!!! We just got back from Big Bend NP, and for sure the stars there are AMAZING!

We didn’t have a fancy camera, my I Phone didn’t do much justice.

 

Our first time to Big Bend NP. We did not hike much due to my ACL surgery. But, driving and camping around there was amazing!

At night it is very dark, but the stars were lighting up the sky.

 

Couple pics from our trip to Maine, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia this summer. Highly recommend it!!

 

Beautiful place! It's my favorite of all the NPs I've been to. Yeah...it's in the middle of nowhere, but worth the drive!

 

From our trip to Cannon Beach, Oak Spring camp, with a goal to hit Crater Lake!

 

Thanks! I'm forever tweaking and refining

It was something! I actually got a little lost at the end but found the trail eventually. I've climbed some tall peaks but that was by far one of the best views I've been awarded. 10/10!

Those came out great! highlighting the mountains makes all the difference. I did take a bunch of shots with a "real" camera, Sony A7III, but none really managed to capture the Milky Way how I wanted.

 

Beautiful shots.

 

A couple days ago in the Eastern Mojave -- camping in a smooth, sandy wash lined with tamarisks (stealthy + wind-block). No snorkel is required.

 

Nice, that's my trip for next summer but I won't be taking my trailer

 

Next summer for me

 

How did she pull - I assume S4 and ECT ?...
Did you experience struggles on inclines - I'm surprised that my smaller camper causes struggles on inclines.
Straight away roads no problem at all but inclines can cause a strain.

 

In all fairness Milky Way season is pretty much done. I like getting out in September, when it shows up around 8:45 pm.
I'm a bit long in the tooth to be up in the wee hours.

 

You'll love it. In 2003 we did the Alaska Highway to Whitehorse. Then we cut over to Skagway Alaska. Then Back to Whitehorse. Being up there after the labor day long weekend all attractions were shut down in Dawson City. So we decided not to go. From Whitehorse we went back down Highway 37 Stewart-Cassiar Scenic Route 18 days on the road and loved every minute of it with our 1992 Toyota truck towing a 12' travel trailer. We started from the Lower mainland first week of September. No crowds and no bugs. We did encounter some snow. We want to go back sometime. We talk about it all the time. This time to Dawson City Yukon and then on to Tuk.

Just a few photos from that trip. Truck was flawless. Even with 220K Kms. It did develop one very small leak on the top tank of the radiator. Lol some putty like stuff (JB Weld?) from Canadian Tire in Dawson Creek and that did the trick.

 

Upstate NY

 

Trona Pinnacles. $40 tarp with a 4" foam mattress in the bed Don't need much to get out there if you want to save some money

 

Cheap works until the bugs get ya....or the cold. Then, More cheap is required! ;-)

 

Depends on your longitude and latitude. Here in the SouthWest - we ain't got no stinkin bugs. It's too daum dry.
But I have lived in the Deep South and the Mid West. Ya'll can have 'em....

 

Awesome. Did you see any pirate ships?

 

Depends on season...spring brings out noseeums in the deserts.
