And we are off!
All ready to go. Systems check out, full of food, fuel and ready for fun. I'm going to try to do a trip report as we go. Don't know how cell service is in Mitchell or at the painted hills but I'll try...

FYI.
Hit the scales on my way out. No trailer or toys. Myself, wife and three boys. Two doges, food, cold snacks and a full load of water (42 gallons, plus a full 5 gallon container for washing hands/dog water.
5000 lbs front axle.
7100 lbs rear axle, combined 12,100 lbs ready to camp.
My truck is 8100 lbs with just me and a full tank of diesel.
So, just posting numbers to show my 2300 lbs factory camper.....grows to almost 4k lbs with people, clothing, food, water....it adds up!
