Not Glenn, but triple towing is legal in Idaho. (And a surprising number of other states, I learned as I was confirming this is true.)

He had swapped the trailer and boat positions by the time we took the photo. Initially caught our attention when he drove by our campsite (#1), trailer behind the TV, boat behind the trailer.

Santa Rosa has a very nice state campground but every time I go by, it is closed.

Saw 2 Escape 19's this afternoon, both with red graphics. One pulled by red SUV heading east on the Trans Canada Hwy just east of Castle Junction in Banff N P at 12:50. The second at 2:00 pm heading north through Radium Hot Springs pulled by a red pick up truck. I waved at both but you probably paid no mind as I was on my motorcycle.

I was thinking the same thing. Luckily, the campsite in the photo is on the Aspen Loop at Ponderosa SP, and they're pull through spaces.

It is a bit tricky. I have done it before, but with longer trailers. Just like with one trailer and thinking about where you direct the back end of the tow vehicle to get the trailer to go where you want, you have to think about where you need the back end of the first trailer to direct the second one where you want.
It has been over 25 years since I did this, but it would be fun to try it again, but only for a short bit.

Whenever I see two rigs being towed I think about pulling two or three or four wagons with a tow motor when I worked at the packing house. Back in the day 40 or 50 years ago Double rigs used to be more common I think. I always described the people with the Honda Minitrails on the front bumper, towing a Scotty or Shasta canned ham and behind that a fishing or ski boat as " a man out for the total recreation experience".

Escape 21 in west Virginia.
Spotted an Escape 21 with red graphics heading south on interstate 81. About 10 AM on June 22 near exit 5 South of Martinsburg WV.
We were heading north with our escape 21 but we have black graphics.

An Escape passed us at 2:15, heading toward McCall on ID55 in Goose Creek Canyon, SE of New Meadows. Wife thinks it was a 19; I was spaced out staring at the trees...

Saw an Escape 21 yesterday, westbound on Highway 12, just outside of Napa, at about 3:00 p.m. Didn't see what was pulling it.

Blue older Escape on x-Canada adventures
We were camping in Elk Island National Park at the end of june and met Mary and Hobert from BC who are travelling east cross Canada in their blue Escape. Think 19 ft and definitely older model. Bon voyage!

Saw an Escape 15 parked at the Macah Museum, Cultural, and Research Center in Neah Bay, WA in the northwest corner of the continental US. The museum was excellent!

We had to find a new home for our Escape, as our hometown Storage/Service/Repair facility is relocating to another town. There were no other storage vacancies in Fremont, so we found a nice, clean, and covered facility in nearby Livermore, CA.. As Debbie and I are about to back into our new slot, I see a nice lady, 3-4 slots away, is trying to get my attention. I walked her way and discovered they are fellow Escape owners, Cathy and Art Molvik of Cardinals' Nest fame. I immediately recognized their beautiful red graphics from the August, 2016 Escape Calendar. We had a nice chat and promised to give a once-over-security-check to each others rigs when we visit our own.
I must say, It is a small world to Escape!
