Boondocking, or maybe you prefer to call it dry camping. Boondocking can be categorized as overnight stops with free camping "wallydocking" or extended stays on BLM land or in a cow pasture. We consider our powwow stays as boondocking, despite the fact that there are other people camping around us. Fact is there is no electricity, no campground amenities and no pavement. Just drumming, singing and dancing into the night.

Our Bounder has solar panels for recharging the coach batteries and a generator to run the air, etc. We hold 100 gallons of fresh water 30 gallons black water and 35 gallons grey. We buy bottled water for drinking since we never know the quality of the water when we fill up. Connie and I cannot afford to be sick on the road and a little precaution is all it takes to prevent illness from food or water born bacteria. Normally if the circumstance allows it I run a garden hose away from the coach and let the grey tank drain, its just shower water. We use paper plates and cups with plastic utensils to conserve water, not to mention that with just two of us its hard to find a volunteer to wash dishes anyway.

Another consideration when boondocking is the cost of fuel. At a gallon an hour the generator consumes enough money that it makes a camping fee pretty appealing on hot nights. We have an additional generator that we carry with us. Its a Honda EU2000 and will run several hours on a gallon of gas.
