Re: Roll Call Alaska 2018
Veebyes wrote: Askwines, how much traffic you see depends on when you go. The people who are crossing into Canada early to mid May just about have the roads & the CGs to themselves. This has become our preference. Ahead of the crowds. The critters are out, Ahead of the mosquitoes, most of them. Still lots of snow on the mountains making for great pictures. The crowds don't begin to catch up to us until mid June. By mid July we are heading back swatting mosquitoes & meeting the crowds going the other way. No way have we ever considered joining a caravan. To us The North is all about doing our own thing, staying in the Provincial Parks, Yukon Gov CGs & Alaskan Rec Areas. Places the caravans don't go. Thanks, sounds like a good plan. Guessing weather maybe an issue in mid may?336Views0likes0CommentsRe: Roll Call Alaska 2018
Excuse me while i ask a few qustions. I'm a complete noob here. No RV, yet. And who doesn't want to go to Alaska? Is this a group that all caravan together or just try and meet up. How many RVs are in this group, caravan? Reading thru the topic, I have pictured in my head of a miles long line of RVers heading north:) Sounds like fun, hopefully in the next 3 years. I think Alaska sounds like trip for a little more experience RVer. Have fun343Views0likes0CommentsRe: Looking for information

As posted earlier DRV uses stacked tubing for a total of 15" depth. Augusta RV uses a 12" I beam with a 2x2 tubing tuning underneath. My Citation has an 18" deep C channel frame with 2x3 tubing welded underneath where the axles attach. My brother in law has a Phoenix 5th wheel which uses a 10" I beam frame as do some Cedar Creek 5th wheels. Are you purchasing a new or used 5th wheel? Not sure about new and used. Lots of variables. Going for build and floor plan. Then price. Understand the value of buying used and immediate depreciation of new.226Views0likes0Comments- 486Views0likes0Comments
