hey all,
we are planning on a trip to yellowstone for however long it takes us to see and have a great time.
here's our question, we are buying a class c winnebage view that is 25' long, we don't want to tow a vehicle with us but instead want to drive around in the view and see the sights plus be able to pull over and enjoy the sights. so, is the view small enough that we can drive around in the roads and be able to park along the roadside or at attractions do they have parking for larger vehicles in the parking lots.
also, has anyone just pulled over somewhere and spent the night drycamping or is that not allowed?
i guess we are asking if driving a 25 footer is going to be too big or are we going to be ok. any help or advice you all have is appreciated.
the width is 7'6"

You can always rent a car In West Yellowstone this way you can set up camp and use it as a base without packing up and then setting up every day. Fuel savings by touring in a car verses the MH will help offset the cost. Less stress on the narrow roads and parking. IMO.

I think somebody might complain about boondocking.

We went there a couple years ago in our truck/truck camper. We're around 23' long. We had the camper on the entire trip and didn't have much trouble finding places to park in the park. There was only one trailhead that is very popular that we couldn't find a spot to park.
We did go in early September so the park wasn't nearly as crowded as it would have been in the summer months.
