Trip Report -The Dalles Campground, WA
The Dalles Our first “Dry” trip in our new 2019 Host Cascade. 4 days, 3 nights near Mt Rainier, close to home, about 1.5 hrs away. The 9.5' tree I have always heard about got dropped recently, safety hazard I guess with rot. Battery/solar was my obsession on this trip, lots of shade and clouds, brought my yami and didn’t use it! We ran the furnace quite a bit (high 40’s at night), radio, lights and fridge the whole time. I hit as low as 12.1 volts when we left, close to 50%.
Was a good relaxing trip with some hiking, no fishing with a high blown out river. Town of Greenwater near by had great beer and burgers at the Naches Tavern.
Truck did great with the camper, getting more comfortable with the setup, only 5 psi in the bags this trip, 10-15 next, little sag, not much, feels solid, ready for more!
