Thank you for all your comments, I'm going to be conservative and cover my vent as well as put a low wattage lightbulb in there to keep it warmer through these frigid MN winters.Re: Winter RV: FridgedaireThank you camperpaul, great idea.Winter RV: FridgedaireAny opinions on if I should or should not run my refridgerator during the winter. I'm researching covering half my vent to restrict air flow, but not restrict evaporation.

"Freeing" is one of the best words to describe boondocking. Great post.Re: Must Have Boondocking Items?I agree Korbe. With the advancement of "camping" and camper technology, boondocking has indeed become a relative term. I'm a hybrid camper myself. I spent my youth as a MN Boundary Waters Canoe Guide and self-proclaimed purest in the camping world. It included canoeing and portaging into a campsite, assembling camp and sleeping on the ground under the skies or in a tent. Now, with my middleaged aches and pains, I boondock simply in my small camper completely set up for energy production with most weather and a generator for redudancy, but I try to use those things only when I really need them. The interesting thing for me is that I KNOW that I have the backup, so roughing it doesn't seem to be as "rough" as it was. I know there is always that switch to turn on if it gets too bad.
