Mistakes we don't want to repeat!
We are all excited to begin the new camping season. We will be uncovering, dewinterizing, restocking, and heading out. As you look back what mistakes do you never want to repeat? We have new people ...

Make sure you chock the wheels before unhooking.
My fist TT had a single axel. First time camping I unhooked it then went into the trailer and walked toward the back. As I did the front jack came off of the ground and the trailer started to roll down the hill toward the lake with me inside of it!!! I panicked and ran for the door which was near the front of the trailer. When I did this the jack came back down and dug into the ground stopping the trailer from rolling any further. Thankfully it had not rolled too far and nobody saw. I hooked back up and pulled it back onto the camping spot. Then, drove to town and bought some chocks.
