Yeah, it already was a tight squeeze with where the trees are at and how our driveway is.
Honestly I would've been fine pulling it with the 1500 for quite a while, especially once I went to load range E tires, but it just made sense to make the jump before trade values started to go back down.

only bad thing is dirt road getting there
other than that it’s a great place. and for travelers and weekenders no size limit!
people bring their fivers in on semi trucks
The official 2021 season here starts this weekend. Can not wait to head out.
Yeah. And because covid made everyone a camper...we are heading further away from civilization. So no cell service most places. Gonna be a fun year.And leave me alone with this hot mess?
If only we all could escape our government as well.

Must be nice. Been snowing here all week and I have a 5 foot snowbank in front of the camper. Hopefully it's nice May long weekend and not below freezing.
We went and scouted two more dispersed sites in Rothrock state forest. Site 6 and 7. Site 6 was occupied and it was too dark for site 7 pic.
But my crappy phone did get this pic if the sun setting.

It is a beautiful day and no neighbors.

Heading out the door tomorrow for Silt (CO). This will be our "Test Trial" camping for our new 2020 Ram and our new 2021 Rockwood FW. I say "Test Trial" because we need to see how things work, both camper and truck, before we head out in late May for an extended stay in the AZ high country. Camping adjacent to the Colorado River should be fun, as well as checking out "Shooter's Grill" in Rifle (CO) (Down the road a short distance). Weather is going to be testy with rain in the forecast. Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be) with this goofy weather this year! Good chance to see if our new investment leaks or not. LOL!
Photo taken from our front yard with the FW fully loaded and the fresh water tank full.

Have fun.
Congress is on break April 23-30 so maybe you get to say howdy to Congresswoman Boebert. She likes it if you're strapped.

Made it back from Silt/Rifle (CO) a little over a week ago. A few photos from our 'maiden voyage' with truck and fifth wheel.
Home Sweet Home along the Colorado River.
Looking down stream.
Looking upstream and about 300 yards and to the right is the nesting ground for our country's heritage (no close-up photo due to cheap camera phone). If you look almost TDC in the upper portion of this photo, you'll see a black dot perched on the branch of the dormant tree. This was my best shot. Even when I bothered to take a walk to get closer, the silly bird would fly off to it's nest about 150 yards behind the other trees. Grrrrr!
The Ram pulled the fully loaded fifth wheel over 10,400' mountain passes without even so much as a whimper. Am I impress? You betcha!
Next stop > Arizona!
and if we survive AZ
We are already planning a road trip to Bend (OR), drive the cascades to the coast into Washington and over to Glacier National Park sometime late summer. Should be fun!
Not done yet!
Camping just outside San Antonio, Houston and Galveston in the works for early spring.
Gotta see it "All" before we grow too old and well, you know!
