There's not exactly a bunch of things near the Badlands to block or even slow down the wind. That wind comes down off the mountains to the west and can really blow. I've been there when it is calm (relatively) and not crowded. It is a special place at both sunrise and sundown.

From my experience, don’t leave anything outside without an anchor that’s bigger than you think you need.

Your experience is about to be tested with Milton coming your way. Good luck and hope that everything goes well for you guys.

Remember camping near Moab where we could not grill outside, nor want to sit outside. Find campsites with lots of junipers to block the wind. Wind is created from the mix of hot and cold air which is a given out here, where just a few miles away the elevation is 3-4000 higher or lower. We had a calm day today, likely because the stratus clouds kept the heat down. Enjoy the calm days! Was a great day and now ready to leave on our trip! 2 Chris & John in Prescott, AZ | 2016 EII #113 | '01 Ram 2500 Cummins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot Posted October 9 Author Share Posted October 9 We did an overnight at Gun Creek, COE in Benton, IL. $9 electric only with our America the Beautiful pass and it worked perfect. We enjoyed dinner at the Gun Creek Golf Course Club House and followed up with breakfast this morning. We made pretty good time east bound and are now in a KOA in Crossville, Tenn. Pretty nice digs for a KOA overnighter. Naturally we haaaaaad to make a stop a the Buc-ees here. YUM!! Ha! This Buc-ees sells diesel too at $3.04 a gal, not bad. Gun Creek COE. We have never been so happy to see trees again! Buc-ees in Crossville, Tenn is much smaller than the Sevierville, Tenn super store. We still got our Buc-ees fix! 😋Ha! Safe Travels and Happy Camping All! 4 2020 OLEII - Hull #634 aka- “XPLOR” TV 2021 F350 6.7 liter Diesel Lariat Ultimate Tremor Retro upgrades - Truma Aventa 13.5 AC, Alcan 5 leaf pack, Alcan HD shackles & HD wet bolts, 5200lb axles.

Moderators Mike and Carol Posted October 9 Moderators Share Posted October 9 We’ve stayed at Gun Creek, nice campground. Cumberland Mountain State Park in Crossville has a nice campground, especially area 5. Buc-ee’s usually has the lowest price gas and diesel, we usually stop. We’re getting a Buc-ee’s here in little old Boerne Texas on I-10 in a year or so.

Mike We enjoy the sensory overload of a Buc-eyes stop. 😳😂We have been using our Open Roads fleet card for diesel top offs when we can and have not found anyone lower in price. How about that Buc-ees Brisket? 😛 2 2020 OLEII - Hull #634 aka- “XPLOR” TV 2021 F350 6.7 liter Diesel Lariat Ultimate Tremor Retro upgrades - Truma Aventa 13.5 AC, Alcan 5 leaf pack, Alcan HD shackles & HD wet bolts, 5200lb axles.

It can be a little messy but they do a good brisket at Buc-ee’s. Just pick up a few extra napkins.

That will be our lunch today! 😛Gotta get out back and give XPLOR good detailing on this cool 54 degree morning. 3 2020 OLEII - Hull #634 aka- “XPLOR” TV 2021 F350 6.7 liter Diesel Lariat Ultimate Tremor Retro upgrades - Truma Aventa 13.5 AC, Alcan 5 leaf pack, Alcan HD shackles & HD wet bolts, 5200lb axles.
