extra fresh water
So if you do bring along extra fresh water what do you do when your gray tank gets full?
My camper has a 40 gal FW tank and a 20 gal gray tank. And if I bring an extra 30 gal FW where does it go?

My vintage 1969 Excel TT did not have a gray tank, they were optional back in those days.
So I just hooked a garden hose up and let the gray water drain. I usually dug a small hole for it to drain into.
I have yet to fill my 20 gal gray tank in my camper but will this coming camping season.
Here in Utah all I can find on the US Forest Service websites is they ask you to put a screen over the end of the hose to catch any food particles so they don't attract wildlife which I think is kind of stupid.
What do you do with your gray water when you're boondocking and your tank is full??

My previous camper was this 1996 Skyline Weekender that I really liked before I found massive wood rot and the cab over started sagging. :M
The biggest thing I hated about this camper was that the shower drained into the black tank which limited how many days I could stay out. Riding ATVs every day means a shower every day.
Other than those two things I loved the camper. The interior was a lot nicer than the Lance I have and even though it was 2 ft shorter it only weighed a few hundred pounds less than my Lance.
