Boondocking @ Big Bend National Park

We haven’t talked a lot about our first official boondocking experience near Big Bend National Park. We took this trip during March of 2022. We had a wonderful time exploring the national park and highly recommend a visit there!

We had just gotten our New Solar Installed, the link the video is below for the background on that whole experience, and we were testing it out for the first time, totally off grid! The problem we discovered when going off grid at the time, was that there was zero cellular service. So even though Charlotte was in the scout Jeep, to forge ahead and check the road conditions, we just weren’t clear on our actual plan of how far she should go, or at what point she should come back if communication was lost.

We learned a lot during that trip, things we plan to share very soon! In the mean time, check out this short of a little bit of what we had to do to exit our boondocking site.

Don’t forget to subscribe to our YouTube Channel to see that video when it goes live! It will be eye-opening and you will wonder why we did the things we did! Not something we would recommend as a first time off the grid in a large 5th wheel!

Would you take your Rig over this kind of hill?
