  1. I found dispersed camping off 20 outside Yellowstone, right on the Henry's Fork. I spent 3 days in the middle of the river with trout rising within feet of me, and didn't get one hit. It was still fun fishing one the top trout streams.
  2. We drove in via Stanley, camping at a beautiful USFS campground on a canyon near the ranger station. Plenty of hot springs. On through Boise to Ponderosa SP in McCall, ID on a beautiful reservoir, and then North and connecting with Hwy. 12. This will get a return visit probably 2026 or 27. Don't miss Crater of the Moon National Monument Beautiful campground in the lava bed.
  3. Hwy. 12 is a beautiful drive with great wildlife views. The LoLo Hot Springs was a fun night stop and enjoyed the hot springs. We took this route from West Idaho back to Missoula Mt.
  4. Our Garmin Explorer is a great safety backup. Never had to use it. At one time when we did off-grid camping, I used it to plot our routes and used it to hike. We would also message our kids. We would set it up so our kids could see where we were at all times.
  5. I can still bend over and screw the quick connect on. No kneeling🤣. I must say, it can be a pain. However, I prefer to do as I do rather than having something sticking out there that is a target of road debris. To risky for me.
  6. We have the ROVE Dashcam, front and back. I can connect to my phone Wi-Fi and there are very clear front and rear pictures. Extra safety, including preventing scams.
  7. The last couple years Oliver has given a $25 state park gift card and used it toward a nice breakfast at the Lodge.
  8. Nice Job. Bring your wallet to the rally 😊 Just kidding.
  9. Happy Easter Everyone
  10. IMO, a bad idea. The Bulldog hitch has long proven to be a reliable hitch on the Oliver. If it ain't broke why fix it? The Oliver tongue is designed for the Bulldog
  11. JD, several years ago Craig had a fire in his Truma water heater. It was a dicey situation. It is my understanding Truma replaced the unit. Fast forward to the burner replacement. Oliver stepped up to the plate, taking care of this. It is my understanding that Oliver sent the part to a Truma approved service company in the PNW. After replacing the burner unit, they conducted their final testing and discovered other issues. I'm not sure how Oliver has any responsibility in this. I don't believe they had anything to do with the previous replacement. That was done by Truma. The trailer is approximately 6 years old. The unit was replaced by Truma approximately 2+ years ago. This appears to be 100% on Truma. Oliver shouldn't be responsible for replacing a unit they didn't install My 2¢
  12. Craig, considering all that you have had go wrong with your Truma, could you briefly share the number of issues that you faced. After the fire was the entire unit replaced and by who? Was the work done by Truma, one of their approved service companies, or Oliver. I remember the fire, and now the burner issue. It seems the service provider did what they said they would do, but found other issues. I could understand them not wanting to take Ownership on something they only were replacing the defective burner. This seems to be something that is on Truma. Sorry this is happening.
  13. The 17" Blackstone griddle has been the best propane grill we have had and with the quick connect we have no complaints
  14. You might be right and just replacing it. There are some size restrictions, so replacing it will most likely mean with the same unit. If you have time to investigate other options look at the drawer fridge freezers. I know several of my old truck camper buddies installed the drawer type and were very happy.
