Re: What are the pitfalls of camping in a Hybrid?
I have camped in my 16' Hybrid travel trailer in bear country and feel quite secure inside. I use bear boxes when necessary , but I also camp with a large dog. I specifically bought my clipper rbd which each side folds down into a bed because I wanted to hear nature, such as the creek I camp next to as well as the sounds of birds and other animals walking around my camp. Don't leave food out, they won't bother you. I also felt closed in when looking at travel trailers and there wasn't much ventilation .When both ends are open a great breeze flows through and it actually appears larger than it is. I previously owned a pop up and this is by far much easier to set up and take down.695Views0likes0CommentsRe: Making Foldable Beds more comfortable in Hybrid Trailers
I recently bought a hybrid trailer and also found the mattress was definitely not enough. I also found that I felt the cold air from below so I purchased a couple of foam camping pads and placed them below my mattress to insulate. This worked great and then since I had a couple 2 " memory foam mattress covers I stacked 3 on top of each other and covered them with a fitted mattress cover which helps them stay in place. when I am done I roll each up and store them on the folded down dinette area. I sleep great, and no aching hips or back when I get up. Getting good sleep is worth purchasing memory foam and it stays in the trailer when I am done traveling.1.7KViews0likes0Comments
