Truck Camping Photo Thread

Ocotillo Wells this last weekend. My buddy has a small plot of land out there. Slept in the Softopper on top of the decked system. Got down to the high 30s at night but wasn’t to bad in a sleeping bag and a comforter.

 

Looks great!

Man I get jealous when I see all the folks down south camping year round. Where I am, camping starts when the snow leaves the mountain backroads, which is about start of May.

I get out for about 30 off road trips from May to end of October, but then it's time to hibernate. Four feet deep snow on backroads is for snowmobiles.

Here is the highway today at one of my jumping off points to a bunch of lakes where I fish and camp.

Highway cam pic so it is pretty blurry.

 

No excuses...

 

What is that, a fancy back massager? Sign me up.

 

NoMoeJps,



What stove setup are you running. It looks like my multi fuel stove, but yours is on propane? Is there an adapter?

 

Az, in the cactus garden.

dammitt...I gotta move. That is like heaven to me...

 

Ahhh.-32 James Bay Winter road.... If that is heaven to you you must be very prepared. I had propane stove butane stove and heater problems. I was not prepared.
Next year 2023 going up again your welcome to come.

I always have to keep my propane bottles in the truck during single digits or lower.. Stuff does not like the cold, which is kind of a big deal when its job is to keep you warm

 

man, that is tempting...when/what time of year did you go? I think it would be a few years before the truck would be ready to go...(just have to parcel out my "fun money" across all my hobbies)

James Bay is pretty far up there. I live in Ohio...farthest north I have been in winter is just north of Sudbury...Biscotasing Lake area

 

Link to the thread it's mid Jan on. Or whenever they make the road.

That bike rack swing out???

 

Tested out the new awnings at Mt. Baker this weekend…so far so good!

 

Is that a heater for your RTT?

NVM, I answered my own question.

 

I have not taken my new Tacoma on a camping trip. I’m still using my 2001 4Runner for the camping trips.

My little teardrop weighs about 1200 pounds. The 4Runner pulls it just fine.
