If you go back & re-read the OP, it asks about how many days can he go on, Grey & Black tanks, not fresh, or "where" to fill/dump.

I'm not clear either what you're asking as "boondocking" is generally accepted to mean camping out in the middle of nowhere with no resources of any kind immediately available as they would be in an organized campground where you may be "dry camping" but where fresh water and dump station facilities are available somewhere nearby. Those are two entirely different scenarios that require two entirely different approaches to sourcing fresh potable water and disposing of grey / black water.

Boondocking or dry camping? Does it really matter?
Of course it matters. :S If you're boondocking well away from any source of resupply you have to have a workable plan as to how you're going to manage your valuable fresh water supply without running out and when necessary how you're going to get rid of unwanted grey / black water. In comparison, if we're dry camping in a provincial park, state park, conservation area, COE park, etc, fresh potable water and facilities to dispose of grey / black water are almost always located within the campground. BIG difference. :R

The "ultimate" boon docking experience is to stay out in the desert at Quartszite AZ. We did that a couple of years ago and found that with myself and my wife, we could last a week on the grey tank which is 60 gallons. We had bottled water to drink, and took navy type showers. Typically the black tank is not a consideration as the grey tank fills up much more quickly.

realize it's a function of tank sizes, but how many days between emptying tanks are realistic / typical for 2 persons when "boondocking" (hookups not available)? or maybe a range?
