Trip Report: Weekend in Tucson

We spent the weekend at the Tucson Mountain Park taking in the sights at the Desert Museum, Saguaro National Park, and Gates Pass. We were also treated to a pretty colorful sunset which made for some great pics.

RE: Scaddan Wash 14-Day Camping Area

Yep. Even during the peak season, there's no check-in for a single overnighter. There should be LOTS of room there now and you should be perfectly safe.

RE: So where did you boondock today?

You meant to post 2 threads? Yes, since boondocking and dry camping are different. Surely, you don't want to start a definition debate on this forum again, do you? :B

RE: So where did you boondock today?

There is a long-going thread with boondocking pics in the "sticky" area on the front of this forum.
THIS ONE: http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/20818436.cfm
Yeah, I'm well aware of that thread. I am the moderator of this forum after all, LOL! That thread exists to post your favorite boondocking pics. This one will be different, this thread simply asks where you boondocked today. Different questions.

This is a new thread to document where you recently dry camped in your RV. Please post a pic to two. This should be an interesting thread. Thanks.

RE: Resources for locating campgrounds

Hi Steve,
What route are you planning to take? I have some ideas on places where you can stay, but need to know your route.
See 'ya at the OX.

RE: So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

Gave my truck and camper a much needed bath.
Now that you are experienced, maybe you can drop over and do mine. :B I'm needing it for a trip next week.

Sure thing! For a small "fee." ;)

Love them! Camping and camp fires are practically synonymous.

RE: Replacing the near worthless CH751 RV locks

If it's expensive I try to keep it inside. And if it does get stolen then thats why I pay for insurance. Most expensive thing I carry in mine is my Zero Gravity chair.
The main thing I wanted to secure was the battery compartment. I keep 6v AGMs in there. Before this mod there was no lock on the compartment, whatsoever.
I think NO LOCK is better than something like you have that screams "SOMETHING OF VALUE" inside. Now not only will whatever is there be gone, but your door and probably parts of the trailer will be damaged.
I only use the thumb locks on my storage doors and believe protecting the minor stuff in there is what insurance is for.
I would not recommend doing what you have done, but different strokes for different folks I guess.
Larry
Yeah, you're right. I think everyone should remove all of the locks on our homes, cars, and RVs. (tic)

RE: Replacing the near worthless CH751 RV locks

Look, I have no illusions that these tubular cam locks will turn my RV into Fort Knox. They won't. I said as much in the closing statement of the article. All these locks do is add another step, extra noise for a break-in, and extra minutes for a thief. That's it. The CH751 locks do none of these things.

RE: Replacing the near worthless CH751 RV locks

Man, tough crowd around here. I imagine industrial lock & hardware would disagree with some of you on the ease of picking them. I think it's a good mod Mike, thanks.
Yeah, no kidding. Maybe I should just remove all of the locks from my home, trucks, and RV. No sense having them If somebody can still break in. :S What kind of logic is that??? :R

RE: Quartzite - Where is the Summer Equivalent?

Those who don't return home, will usually use the National Forests in the summer. Higher elevations and cooler temperatures, still free.
