I agree with your key points. That's pretty much how our trip went. Patience is necessary, but the country is beautiful and the people are friendly Sent from my SM-S916U1 using Tapatalk

The beauty of a trailer is the ability to park it and run the trails you want, coming back to a nice comfy campsite. When we did Colorado with our teardrop, we base camped near Ironton. This allowed us to spend our days really scouring the area. We did hikes to a ton of mines. Drove Engineer...

Those Seat Jackers made a world of difference in our 2nd gen Tacoma! Sent from my SM-S916U1 using Tapatalk

I've been to the KofA area and around Quartzsite but I've not been to Cibola. Looks like I might have to add that on my list

Thank you. Yeah I don't update it like I should. Or maybe I should've had a thread dedicated to teardrop travels. In either case, glad you like the build. It's worked out better than we ever thought it would.

It's 2025. The CrowsWing currently has 55,000+ miles on it. Since we finished it in 2012 we have camped in it in 47 states. We lived in it non-stop for 13 months in 2020 and 2021. We're still towing it around the country,, but living out of it 3 months at a time, then working from our travel...

Umar Madeline and Eric's flight was leaving at 1AM, so we were all at the airport by 11PM. Our handler grabbed us all and took us through the first checkpoint, where, once again, the ladies (Madeline and Elizabeth) were separated. Once reunited the handler took us to a seating area and led...

The next morning Beth and I checked into our Turkish airlines flight for our return trip home. We packed up and hauled our luggage to the bus. (The Bell Boy was supposed to pick it up, but with our group so spread out through the reort I got tired of waiting) With the bus packed with our bags...

When we got back to our room, we learned of the plan for a surprise birthday party for Ali. We were to be on the lawn of his cottage just before midnight. The family tradition is to celebrate the birthday at midnight the day of the birthday. We all relaxed until a little after 11PM then made...

The next day most of us took a field trip to the Upper Kachura Lake, Elizabeth stayed behind and began the long process of editing our gigabytes of video and photographic materials. The access to Upper Kachura Lake leads through a stone wall lined path between the stone houses of a small...

From Shigar we headed to our next stay in the very fancy Shangrila Resort in the Shangrila Valley. From our brief research this was supposedly the very valley that the Shangrila of Hilton's “Lost Horizon” is based on. With the Lower Kachura Lake, the Tibetan style restaurant on the lake-shore...
