Camping In Snow
Hi All, My family and I are looking ahead to next year and planning a ski trip. We are from the South (Houston Area) and we were thinking about going to Ruidoso, NM because we have never camped in...

See my signature below? Last Feb 2014 we flipped the trailer and totaled the 2500 Megacab diesel on black ice ( Going South on I-75 at the Michigan- Ohio border).
Right now we are negotiating a Rockwood 3029W trailer. I can guarantee you it will never be driven on snow/ice. We didn't see the black ice until to late. Police & semi's also slid all over the place that day. Very scary but thank God no one was hurt.
Happy trails,
Glad you are okay.
Trailers and ice / snow are very scary. I only tow in the snow when there is no other option. I towed my travel trailer out of a campground after the snow had fallen during our trip (very early snow that year) and it was a little bit scary. I just kept my speed low and gave lots of room for stopping. I downshifted on the hills to keep from speeding up too much and avoided the brakes as much as possible.
