We optimistically head to a first come, first serve campground, Norris, in Yellowstone National Park hoping to find a site that will fit us. After almost 2 hours of waiting, we get the very last site. Too bad we can’t fit into it. 😳
After almost breaking the RV and getting yelled at by park rangers, we finally find a place to stay. The next morning we head out into the park to hike the terraces at Mammoth Springs. A few storms roll through, bringing more double rainbows our way! Unfortunately, they also bring more hail.
Stay tuned for the next episode where we continue exploring Yellowstone National Park with our friends @justrolandwithit as they experience Old Faithful and Grand Prismatic for the first time! Be sure to like and subscribe and click on the bell icon for notifications when we release new videos!

@gregnauertz1138 3 года назад

When backing into tight spots, take the load leveling bars off. I have the same hitch and found that removing the bars always makes backing up much easier.

@AN-kg4ei 3 года назад

not always the best plan but sometimes if on loose dirt or gravel, you can skid the trailer maybe a foot to gain access. We just camped somewhere with a stump in exactly the same place a d same issue with slide... eventually got it in but it was a little sketchy.

@clifwilks 2 года назад

When my parents retired years ago their first RV was a class a and it was enormous and off they went. My mother came back with so many stories of my pop scraping the trees losing hubcaps, on and on and on and I swear he went two shades grayer that first trip. Over the years they downsized until they ended up in a class C. You kids are living the dream. Good in ya! 🙂👍🏻

@stinson87 3 года назад

This really answered one of my debates I have been having on a larger trailer for our family of 5. I'll probably lean more towards the Grand Design 278BH since it gives the mobility of about a 27ft bumper pull and only a few inches taller. We currently squeeze into a 22ft bunkhouse with no slides so anything would work better for us, but turn radius really seems to be the key to national parks!

@davidtotten618 3 года назад

My wife and I are “half timers”. We spend about 6 to seven months a year in our 28ft TT. All our friends ask us why we don’t get a bigger one and this is why. National parks and National forest are, for the most part, older and just don’t have many spaces for bigger rigs. Personally, I would prefer even shorter, like our old 24ft, but we just couldn’t find one that would work for us when we brought the grandkids along. We love Yellowstone,and are avid wolf watchers, usually spending at least a couple weeks there every year. (We are however going to skip this year because of road work that is going on.). If you haven’t been to Glacier, Yellowstone, and Teton, please put it on your bucket list. Cell service as noted is practically non existent, ( that should change soon as the park is allowing some towers to be build.) so plan ahead!

@FindingOurSomeday 3 года назад

That’s full time 😎 32 feet or less and your golden(were 35.5)! I don’t blame you for staying short! Even we are constantly dwarfed when we park next to other full time RVrs . That’s good news about the cell towers, well I think it’s good... we have been to Glacier 3 times we will be there in a couple episodes for the second time we visited. We came to Yellowstone from the Tetons (previous episode to this)

The trick to backing into a tight spot, is the initial approach to the site and setup in preparation to backing into the site. My wife and I also carry 2-way radios (simple radios from Walmart) so we can easily communicate while she's spotting me, as I back in.

@karengodsey2919 3 года назад

First time we went, we had a 36 ft 5th wheel and was a last moment idea, so no reservations. But thanks to a couple of other campers helped us get into our spot. One guy even moved his RV so we had more room to back in. Been back a couple times, but now we take our cargo trailer.

Been to Yellowstone and the Tetons 4 times. The last time was August 2018 and I spent 4 days there, the other three trips were a day to go through. It was amazing being there for those four days I used a day for different areas of the park. You should install some vent covers over your vents. It allows them to be open in all kinds of weather. My Dad installed some on our old 24ft prowler and it was awesome. We could have the vent open and didn't have to worry about rain or snow (we mostly used the trailer from November to April for Skiing) coming in the vents

Great video. Just a few things. 1. Lamar valley and Hayden valley are where the most wildlife is not the southern part, FYI. 2. Just because you are in a rush and people are actually using turnouts to see wildlife and features how about respect the park. Also way to go when getting off the road and worrying about the truck more than the park.

@FindingOurSomeday 3 года назад

Great comment. Just a few things 1. Any reference to wildlife was only directly related to the 2 roads that run north to south . One road has more wildlife then the other, the lake side. 2. The traffic comments were purely a PSA to stay alert when driving through national parks, We have driven through many, many National Parks and know exactly what to expect. 3. I honestly have no idea what your talking about. Yes I like my truck, most of my talk about it is humor though. I was however taught growing up to take care of the things you own, and respect other people’s property. We make every effort to leave a place better then when we arrive. Have a good week!

@13Bull13 3 года назад

Most people don’t realize you need to take off your anti-sway bars before you do maneuvering into your campsite especially if it’s more than just a easy straight back. You do not want to put your hitch into a bind. It’s not what it’s designed for. Remove that equipment and even your electrical cord if you can.

@FindingOurSomeday 3 года назад

We definitely should have taken it off first for this, your right!

@gcflower99 3 года назад

Don't need to take 'em off, just loosen them down to the last chain link and they dangle nicely and do not bind. More importantly, the anti-sway (if present) should be loosened to allow the pivot with ease. The SOLUTION, if you want one, is to install a front hitch. You could put that trailer in much more easily, because the steer tires are much closer to the pivot point.

@13Bull13 3 года назад

@Cake41579 3 года назад

Just a hint of advice from someone that’s been pulling large trailers for many years. When you are in a bind, sometimes you can unhook and reposition the truck to get lined up better abd get into the spot. I have had to do this a few times and sometimes it makes the difference of getting into your spot and not.

My perfect size travel trailer - 20'-22', 15" wheels with no slide. Can go anywhere an overland trailer can go. By the way, I prefer the tradition fold-up steps under the door, not the solid step that folds into the door.

@FindingOurSomeday 3 года назад

You can definitely put a 22 ft wherever, even a 30 foot is quite a bit more maneuverable then our 35 1/2 footer. The fold up stairs are faster for sure! The storage box sold me on it, and it’s so much more pleasant when we are parked for more then a couple days. The whole RV used to move whenever someone came in or out.

Get some walkie-talkies four of them and that will illuminate your stress levels and yelling out loud to give directions from all corners of your vehicle especially when you have two or three people to help out walkie-talkies are the only way to go, makes it much easier to back in when you can have somebody say cut, left cut right, sharper straighten it out all those commands will help immensely when backing. Also when in Yellowstone as I grew up around there think of it as a giant theme park and that you can encounter people at any time the speed limit is 45 , most of the time you’ll never be traveling that fast, and watch out for Bigfoot he lives in the Area we’re all the big boulder fields are! Get an Elon musk star link 99 bucks a month you’ll have your own direct satellite link with 250 Mb speed can’t beat it take it everywhere...

A little bit or research on the Internet would have shown that large trailers with multiple slide outs are not a good fit for the in park campgrounds.

@FindingOurSomeday 3 года назад

We only have one slide out, our RV isn’t actually that big, this wasn’t our first time in the park with our RV, and we did fit. The mistake was not checking the 2 sites beforehand, assuming the rangers would know the better site for us. It’s all part of life on the road😃

@silentmajority2347 3 года назад

We visit every year to both Teton National Park and Yellowstone. We learned very early on that staying just outside the park is easier and with full hookups. The key is to allow yourself enough time to see everything.

I tent camped in Yellowstone decades ago in early May and got very seriously snowed out, like the entire park was evacuated. At that elevation, any weather is volatile, regardless of time of year, and campers of all sorts need to keep this in mind. It's a gorgeous park, well worth visiting, but dangerous also. Be prepared...

Not going to argue that statement, you sir are a genius 😂 no problems here though , we’ve been on the road over three years circling America as many times including Alaska. I’ve backed into hundreds of tights spots. Dont let the wide angle fool you on how big that site was . I’m not saying it couldn’t have been done, but I didn’t want to block the road and hold anyone up, and risk someone else in the site across from me when it was time to pull out. I knew what was on the road and in the park at that time and decided even if I did get in it could be a whole new hassle getting out, I cut my losses and decided to move on.
