This year we stayed at Willow Creek Campground and last year we stayed next door at Cottonwood Campground. Both campgrounds are part of Willard Bay State Park and are located directly off I-15 just north of Salt Lake City. A perfect location for an overnighter with easy access. Cottonwood has

We headed out of Canmore early to find ourselves with a bit of drizzle coming down. This meant our quick trip through Banff would be a bit overcast but that was fine with us. The roads were almost empty, the mountains had an eerie look with low clouds, and we

We’re headed north to British Columbia and Alberta in Canada for a few weeks visiting friends and family. We have been having lovely weather so it was a terrific drive north. We like to take our time and get stopped by early afternoon. We headed up through Idaho via part

It’s that time of year when many RVers are working away busily preparing (if not already on their way) for their long awaited trip to Alaska, the wild frontier! When talking to other RVers, the subject of “Driving to Alaska” comes up now and again as we sit around the

We really like Mojave National Preserve. There are two campgrounds, Hole-In-The-Wall and Mid Hills. Hole-In-The-Wall can easily fit big rigs but Mid Hills tends to be more for tenters. A small RV or camper can easily fit there though. And we found some “OH SO GREAT” boondocking spots but know
