What's your stick(est) wicket?
Mine was in a Lake Tahoe national forest campsite that's so tight that my trailer got caught between a rock and a tree while leaving my slot. No wonder the camp host escorted going against a one-wa...

I had one in ElDorado National Forest. I had gotten the site about 5-6 years prior with my 20ft Shasta TT and Durango. It was my first trip with the trailer and I got there and backed in to the site in one try. Easy Peasy. The camphost congratulated me on my maneuvering. When I looked up, I realized I had missed the AC on a huge tree limb by mere inches! Whew!
Fast forward to this past summer and I decided to take my FoldnRoll there. It's only 16ft and only about 6 inches taller than my Durango, so I figured it would be a simple job. When I get there, I swear the roads are a good foot narrower than they were before... My site is right after a left turn, right on a right turn, and the crossroad is on the other side of the big boulder on the corner of the site. The tree that was so close last time was now away from the parking pad. But I had an almost 90 degree turn onto the parking pad from the road due to the curves, boulder and trees. They apparently had completely redone the campsite between my visits.
It had taken me about 5 minutes to back in the first trip. This trip it took a good 20 minutes, a LOT of maneuvering back and forth, and I had to disconnect and park the Durango at 75 degree angle to the trailer (before I had left it hooked to the shasta TT).
