Funny comparing camping to traveling.
On our 260 miles trip to Lake Powell, we crossed state line 5 times.
But going to regural campground brings the concerns about using common facilities. The big campground we stayed at had huge office with TV monitor giving tips how to protect yourself from virus.
1 of the tips was to wash your hands and use paper towel to open the door.
Bathroom had electric hand dryers and no paper towels. :S

I don't "travel", I just go camping and I'm getting ready for another camping trip.
Figured I had better wash the truck and camper before heading out.
Slow traffic on the forum makes me wonder if Adamis and me are the only members who made some travels this season.
I check boat forum on other hand and in 2 days it generates 3-4 pages of new replies.
Anyway, for those who like pictures, here is couple from our last weekend. (zoom onto campers at the bottom of Horseshoe Bend.)
In the week we spend at Powell Lake, the new cases of coronavirus in Las Vegas quadrupled, so looks like going into remote locations is the only way to go this season.

Since I come to the lake with friends driving cars, we decided to move to nearby RV park with paved roads.
In the mean time we observe other drivers going out of campground and figured out the best way is to go the loop who had 3 spots with soft dust 50-150' long.
So walking the road couple of times we could figure out the best path, so with my camper loaded, I was able to go up to main road with my truck "just fine".
It is "just" becouse keeping the speed at sand road I could see camper nose "in line of view" . Switching to 1 manual gear sure makes the difference.
Bottom line, me with camper and friend with FWD SUV were able to pull up just fine, although with adrenaline at high level.

OH YEAH !!!.
Campground has plenty of participants, but the National Park Service who SUPPOSE to manage the campground was shut down for last 3 months, meaning did nothing and now they continue to do so.
There is no host, no ranger that you can see, not gate guard.
They open electronic kiosk, where you can leave your money, but all campground roads are having deep sand that makes even all SUV stuck.
The only vehicles who can make it to the beach are 4WD pickups with mud tires.
2nd time in 3 years of owning this truck I had to pay for the rope, what might make comment to other topics if saving $40 in 3 years is worth the cost of 4WD.
So there is a limit how much LSD can help.
