Howdy,

Just Picked up our 2016 Forest River Chaparral Lite 29MKS. Looking forward to doing a weekend shakedown/set-up

New to this forum and not forums in general. Great info and advice from seasoned members.

Welcome from your neighbor near Monument, CO

Beautiful camper. Please let us know what your impressions are after your first several camping trips.

Wife and I are always looking to meet and camp with other CO couples. We ATV, hike, and especially enjoy boondocking in the back country.

Welcome & congratulations on the beautiful new camper! We live in Littleton and are anxious for this snow to STOP so we can take our new camper out! We greatly appreciate the service your boys give our country and we thank you as well!

Welcome to the forums from SW Idaho.

Oldest son will retire end of this year from the Army, youngest grandson just joined the Navy.

We thank you and your sons for their service and if you served we thank you.

Congratulations! Looks just like our 336 TSIK. We love ours now that the bugs have been fixed (or killed)!

Thanks for all the Warm welcome! We did get out this weekend and we were learning what switches operated what. Lots of learning, you seasoned guys would have had a few laughs!!! We really enjoyed it and we are glad we got it. No escorting Susan to the restroom in the middle of the night! Plenty of room for us, Bailey and Snickers (Our four legged kids)!
To my Colorado neighbors, let's stay in touch through PM. Going to Lake Granby for Memorial Day weekend and Jefferson Lake for 4th of July!
