We love waterfalls! Any state park with a waterfall is good with us!383Views0likes0CommentsWhat are your favorite state parks to camp?
In our many years as tent campers, we have often stayed in state parks. I'd love to hear your favorites and why. Also name the state where it is located. Here are a few of mine Minnesota: Gooseberry Falls State Park - beautiful park on the north shore of Lake Superior with amazing views of a great waterfall. Judge CR Magney State Park - the farthest north park with camping on the north shore of Lake Superior. Less busy than the parks closer to Duluth. Great waterfalls! More states later!12KViews0likes42CommentsRe: Do I need a weight distribution hitch?

I would simply change out the factory hitch for one that is rated to carry more tongue weight without a WDH. Then you will be within all the ratings, have a stronger hitch, and not have to deal withe the big heavy WDH. I'm intrigued by this suggestion. I pull an enclosed cargo trailer once a week that weighs 8,000 lbs and I don't use a WDH. I've never had a problem but maybe I should upgrade the receiver as I'm sure I'm overloading the factory one.508Views0likes0CommentsDo I need a weight distribution hitch?
Hey everyone. First post here. My wife and I are considering getting off the ground and trading the old tent in for a hybrid travel trailer. We are looking at the 23' Rockwood Roo. My tow vehicle is a 2002 Ford F-250 crew cab long bed 4x4 with camper package and 7.3 diesel. I have towed boats all my life but have never used a weight distribution hitch. Will I need one for this trailer? Dry weight is only around 4,500 lbs. thanks for the help as we learn before we buy!6KViews0likes19Comments
