I know this is a bit premature, as there is still time for more nights in the truck camper in 2019, but since I took the camper off the truck last weekend I went ahead and totaled up our nights in for 2019.  We had our best year yet with 69 nights in the truck camper (51 nights was our best until this year, but that's only 4 years of records).    

 

How many nights did you spend in the truck camper in 2019?

 

What is your goal for 2020?

 

I'm hopeful we can get into the 70's.

I don't have an exact tally but we spent about 200 nights (2 long trips; 2.5 months and 2 months).  I doubt we'll ever break that.

I don't have an exact number for this year, but over 100 nights easy. One long trip of 2 months and another trip of 1 month over the winter and spring, and multiple weekend or week long excursions throughout the year.

This coming year should be similar. Heading out in just over a week for the first trip, 10 weeks to wander, starting in Big Bend National Park and heading north as the weather improves.

I have to look at my Morpholio to tabulate.

April: 11 OR/WA

May: 19 OR/WA/NV

July: 4 North Cascades

August: 4 Blues Festival

September/October: 47 WA/ID/MT/WY/UT/NV/OR

 

Grand total: 85 Almost ¼ of the year! 

 

We hope to do more camping in the North Cascades and environs in the summer. We would like to break 100 this year.

Because my pup had heart problems and my truck misbehaved, I only got out for 29 nights.

Had a trip to the arctic planned for August/September; maybe next year.

This.

 

And grateful to see what we did. Just been watching footage of a sweet coastal town we visited now being pounded by a severe weather event. Lovely place. Lovely residents. Feel bad for them  :-(
