Best camping trip of the year


Recommended Posts

No new posts in this area, so I thought I would at least post something new.

What was your favorite campout this year and what made it great?

Mine was a trip up to the north shore with my daughter and son-in-law. He had never camped before and we had a great time smile

Another was a trip up to Ely. Stayed at a camper cabin in a State Park. It was early in the year and weather was cold, so the cabin made it a lot more fun. Still had the outdoor feel however. Fishing was great!

Also went on a trip to Leech Lake. Caught lots of fish and had a great time with a friend and his adault son. I learned from them that I spend way to much time preparing for a trip. Besides eating the fish meals, we lived on cheese brats & PB&J sandwiches the whole time there.

My favorite hardly compares to the rest of our trips. In late June, my family took our new camper on a 10 day trip. We went to the Black Hills for a weekend and then spent the rest of the trip in Montana including 5 whole days in Glacier National Park. What an amazing place. We hiked in the mountains, including at Logan Pass, which opened up the last day we were there. We hiked the mountain tops in the snow.

We saw grizzly bears, black bears, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, mule deer, antelopes and we caught several types of trout including lakers from the glacial lakes.

My favorite camping trip: A group of my friends and thier families took a week long vacation to Leech Lake. A few of us brought campers and boats and another friend brought all of our 4-wheelers on a huge goose-neck flat bed trailer. We spent the week riding atv's in the area and fishing Leech Lake. The weather was great and the fishing was good. Everyone had a great time and want to do it again next year. It is unbelievable how fast 7 days can go by when your having so much fun.

Not sure if we have a favorite for the year, but the wife & I got out quite a bit. I think 9 times. Let me see if I can remember them all. Lanesboro, Hinckley, Janesville, Zumbro Falls, Redwood Falls, Red Wing, Upsala, New Ulm & Norwood. All good times. Probably done for the year now.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
