we have a 26ft. travel trailer. We've really only stayed in campsights with electric hookup and that is our plan for our trip out west...not sure if that will be possible all the time.We probably won't need the air conditioner in Sept. but We'd definitely need electric to run the water pump and maybe the small electric heater that we use instead of our furnace
We did a similar trip a couple of years ago. Left Labor day weekend heading to Yellowstone. There we plenty of campgrounds along the way. The first night we stayed in a large McDonalds parking lot in Iowa. It was cool enough the A/C was not needed. We just ran the fantastic fan. The second night was in a campground in Wall SD. Didn't need a reservation there and it was full hookups. The third and fourth night were in Cody, WY. We did have reservations there although they did still have empty sites.
I think you'll be okay just finding campsites along the way. We do have a large group 31 AGM battery and a small solar panel so after Cody we weren't plugged in for six days. It was in the 70's during the day and 30's at night. So we did set the furnace on 50 at night and it did run a few times.
