I need to find some place to install this in the Beastie. Actual dimensions are: 8" X 13.5" including the mounting points.



I got this one in Cabo. Wish I had a place for it too. I'm thinking it would be fun to have a caravan of these trailers go down through Baja sometime in the near future.

BTW, I am really envious and totally impressed with what you guys are accomplishing right now. All I have are pictures of the trailer and dreams of the future.

Here is what it looks like inside at the moment.

In the right lower corner you can see my PETT Portapotty. We asked Mark to modifiy the size of the cabinets on the right side so that it would fit in that corner. Once buttoned up inside the trailer at night we no longer have to go out to answer nature's call. The green sack on the bed holds a Blue Ridge portable shower wooden floor. When camping in the same spot for several days, we can pull out the shower curtain, plop the wooden floor beneath it and use the enclosed area as an outdoor potty thanks to having the PETT along. At night the potty will go back into the trailer. So the external shower area now serves two uses.

Are you using a double sleeping bag or two singles zipped together?

Canada would also be fun. Right now the exchange rate is $1.00 US for $1.40 Canadian. Mexican Pesos are like 23.32 per $1.00 US.

This is the one we've been using for the past couple of years. The top and bottom zip apart. But won't work as single bags. Think you can also get liners for them. We added a 1-1/2" memoryfoam pad over Mark's stuff and sleep like babies.

Are those leveling jacks I see at the back of the trailer? If so,great addition! I really like the larger side windows too.

Um, about this social distancing thing. Seeing that many public lands, forests, parks, and play areas are now off limits, I wonder if Nanc and I should do some more of this this year. What are you doing to keep from going insane? Lake Pend Oreille in northern ID.

Would this "social distance" be considered adequate? Camping near Little Therriault Lake east of Eureka, MT. Fall of 2018.

There are large areas in SE UT that even at the height of tourist season are fairly uninhabited. I wonder what they look like now? I'd love to be able to hire a guide and visit some of the more remote areas on the Navaho Nation lands. This pic is from Monument Valley.

Yep, that’s exactly what they are. It will be nice for when we are disconnected to keep it stable.

Can you disconnect while traveling?

I havent actually seen them yet, but it appears they are just attached via a pin. I thought about relocating to the box doors for when off road.

Looking through my old pics I am finding so many places to return to. Having the trailer now will allow us to spend more time there and really explore the areas. This is another wonderful spot in Montana. This is a naturally occurring rock formation caused by erosion. Some of the locals claim it is proof of ancient civilizations created with alien support. I didn't think pot was legal in MT until recently. ?
