Cell service is one reason why I got a brand new travel portable DVD player off marketplace for $5! I only carry about 5 DVDs with me. My all time favorites that I can literally watch over and over. Plugs (DC) right into my power station with very little draw. Perfect for rainy/cold days when you just need to hunker down. Love to see another solo female camper especially a primitive one! So good to know I’m not alone. I also take my watercolors with me just in case. And I suck at painting lol.

Such a great idea!!! I need to look for my old travel DVD player! Watercolors is another great tip for a rainy day!!! Happy solo camping!

A family activity we do at every new campground is going thru and rating all the sites (and grabbing any left behind firewood). Then we keep the list of favorite sites in the glove box, for easier reservation decisions next time. Getting a handle in rating criteria is always fun:privacy, shade, away from bathroom path, near the creek, not in a high traffic zone of cross roads and entrance, works for our tents..etc etc. The reservation system is often but not always required for any national park.

Love your videos. I can't wait to go camping this year! I love your truck camper video. I'm not inclined to build anything so having a setup that's easy to use is great! Like you, I want my truck bed space available for other uses besides camping. Looking for the right cot size and very happy you share your videos. Just because I'm a lone lady traveler, your videos are helpful in figuring out where to go and the things you come upon. Thank you, Dawn! Much love from Northern Minnesota. 😁

Have you seen the moonlander truck topper? It allows you to sleep elevated (up to a queen size) E to W, while still allowing space for cargo. It's just a topper, but the sides extend beyond the truck bed rails to allow a bed to fit E to W. I need to look into it more, but they seem practical and lightweight (all aluminum).

I love solo camping. I’ve actually met really great people but they tend to be very respectful. They’ll say hello and then leave you alone. I did park next to three lovely lady tent campers who introduced me to inflatable kayaks (and now I have one, lol) and we had the best time. Fire, music, adult beverages. It was great! It’s my favorite thing to do. I’ll even string up a hammock and take a nap. Remember, in a campground there are always people around somewhere and sound travels especially at night. I’ve never felt unsafe…at least not yet. Oh, I have a camper van btw. 🙂

@@anitas580 I’m so sorry to hear this. My husband also passed away 2 years ago. We used to camp all the time. We tent camped, then got a pop up, then bought a 30ft airstream and camped. I even bought a little RPod so I could go camping whenever I wanted to go. Haha! After he passed, I still wanted to camp, but wasn’t super confident about pulling my little RPod anymore, so I decided to add a topper to my truck. So…that’s how and why I started this. Give yourself some time and start small so you can build up your confidence. Prayers going out to you 🙏🏽
