BTW Corey, that photo was taken east of 410 off FS-7030, near your stompin' grounds.:smiley_drive:


I love my Fiamma F35 Pro 8 footer. I wished I would have bumped into you to check out your setup; we were camping off of 7034 over there too for field training exercise with KC4x4SAR. Coming home, we took the route from there to Stampede Pass...Nice drive.

Cheers,

We were up there a few years ago at the entrance to the pea gravel road that goes to Stampede.
A full size pickup had just emerged from there, so we asked him where the road went.
I would like to go over that sometime.

"Ah yes, 7030, I know the area quite well up there.
Deciding whether to go there for my vacation, or back up to the White River campground at Rainier.
Leaning towards the latter since it offers very closeup views of the mountain.

PS, if you have more pics in another thread, would like to see them.[/QUOTE]"



Corey, I posted a few more photos of that area in the "Pop-up Truck Camper" section.

Maybe next time...
BTW, Thanks for all the SAR work that you do.
Many lost in these areas of WA would never make it home if not for the countless hours you guys put in, looking for a needle in a haystack.

How about Camping Lab Awning with Privy-Room..

******!!!

A bunch of us brainstormed the shade dilemma extensively while at the Overland Rally in Hollister.

So, to start with I picked up a set of four 12 inch Snow Peak stakes (solid stake #40's) along with their uber cool Snow Peak tent peg hammer. http://www.snowpeak.com/shelters/stakes-hammers.html
Overbuilt, go-anywhere stakes are a must, as is the ability to pull them out ;)

Now, with a couple of attachment points on the back of the FliPac over the tailgate, and the Kelty Car Tarp http://www.kelty.com/p-126-car-tarp.aspx , I should be GTG for tailgate area shade.

Then, I will add either the Camping Lab or the ARB awning with side panels for side-of-the-truck shade and extra sleeping room/privy/etc. http://www.campinglab.com/awning.html - http://www.campinglab.com/awningacc.html

Should be quite a setup once assembled, and lightweight when travelling :D
