Hi from Calgary

Picked up a 2018 Rockwood Ultra Lite late this past summer. Previously had a Dutchman Aerolite. The Rockwood is so much better and more suited for us. We prefer to go camping off-grid. We do lots of fishing too. We're outfitted with a 3500W generator and a 12,500 lb quick connect winch, both Champion. We were out this past weekend and had a bit of snow. Also winterized, so it's put away until May 😞.

Welcome from Rocky Mtn. House.
It seems like winter has come early 3 years in a row now, but what do you do it's Alberta .

brrrrr.... snow.


Glad you got some good camping in this summer. We're about to emerge from our self imposed air conditioned summer at home and camp in our cooler temperatures (for us).

Thanks!

Thanks for the warm welcomes! Glad we winterized this past weekend. Woke up to 30cm of snow this morning.

I'm taking a moment of observed silence for all those forced to winterize early this year.

Hello from sunny southern Arizona. I spent two nights in RMH at Riverview rv park June of 2016 on my way up to Alaska. Took a tour of the old Fur Trading post and met some interesting people. I was taking rte 22 the Cowboy Trail, real pretty drive.

I'm afraid there may be a lot more of the white stuff on the way to you and the 10 day forecast isn't pretty. This is the 3rd year in a row, say hello to Global Warming.
