Sounds great! Keep us posted on your trips.

The Eastern Shore of Maryland is really flat so this helped a lot with that run; but that mileage was over 157 miles of measurement.

I haven't thought about gas mileage improvement with the hitch. I guess it might help a bit by causing less wobble but probably this would be negligible. The main advantage is that it is smoother and much quieter. I also put a generous smear of grease on the ball itself which reduces noise...

Recently I headed down to the Eastern Shore of Maryland with a buddy of mine to camp at Pocomoke River State Park. Checking the weather, it was forecast to be quite warm (high 80s in the day and lows at night in the low 70s). This is unseasonably warm for early October in Maryland and prompted...

Hi Jim and Jamie, We were at the Shad Landing campground. I'll have to go ahead and post that review. Thanks for the invite to the tearjerkers local group. I'll have to give that some thought. Ben

Welcome to the forum. It'll be a good platform to get out with your pup and explore. Hopefully you have the AC option down in Texas this will allow you to sleep comfortably while camping during the long Texas summer.

Looks brand new. Congratulations! Keep us posted on your adventures. We'd all love to hear of good camping spots in Florida.

Was it a challenge finding sites each night or did you plan your stays beforehand? Looks like a great trip.

I've been interested in electric bikes for the past couple of years. I think I'll ride more if I can hit the hills without difficulty. Please report back how it goes.

I'm sorry to hear of the pain you're experiencing Bear but glad to have your perspective back here on the board. I work in medicine and am often trying to come up with solutions for patients who come to me with an array of maladies. Hearing of your sensitivity to electromagnetic radiation -...

This past weekend I did a 3 day trip to Pocomoke State Park on the Eastern shore of Maryland. It's a nice spot to get out and do some paddling if you have a canoe or kayak or bigger water if you have such a vessel (Chesapeake Bay via the Pocomoke river). Since I had the space, I decided to...

Great question! Only because I arrived at half time.

My 3rd outing with the Ascent was this past weekend. I towed ~314 miles round trip. I can confirm that the rattle tamer referenced above works very well. It makes for a much quieter and less bumpy towing experience. On the drive from Baltimore down to Pocomoke State Park, I was able to...

My wife would like to go back again which is pretty high praise for the place. This weekend headed to Pocomoke on the eastern shore. Will post a review - glad you've encouraged it!

I just took my second trip with the teardrop. I'll say that there isn't much discernible difference in braking or acceleration towing versus not towing. That's not a big surprise though given that it's rated to tow 5000 pounds and my trailer is right around 1000. I do notice the rattling of...

Looks like a trip into western Canada is in order. Just a few provinces needed to complete the map.

I just got back from a weekend at Elk Neck State Park which is located at the far northern reaches of the Chesapeake Bay. It is located on a peninsula with the Elk River on one side and the mouth of the Susquehanna on the other. There are several loops available - only one with electric which...

Assateague is my wife's favorite camping spot. Unfortunately storms kept us away earlier this month. I bring along a little shovel bury a piece of firewood to use to hold our shade tarp in place on the beach. This works a lot better than even the long orange stakes from home depot.

There are several nice state parks within a relatively small area around here. I also like Cunningham Falls State park which is at Catoctin Mountain (Camp David) and Gambrill State Park which is south of Cunningham Falls and east of Greenbrier. All 3 are fairly close to Frederick which is a...

Welcome to the community! There is a wealth of knowledge about Camp-Inns in particular but lots of good advice about camping in general. Folks here are friendly and helpful and very rarely will you find anyone say anything hurtful to another community member. It's a nice tonic in a world that...
