Very exciting to see them on the road....

Day One; we saw two; one heading north bound on the I-5 ant the second was in Champooeg Historical Campground.

Day Two; we saw three all on the I-5 heading North.

Day Three; Topaz Lake Campground

Day Four; Death Valley

Day Five; Just outside Las Vegas

Day Six; Between Zion and Bryce Canyon

It was us in the 19 in Champooeg. We saw you leave as we were having breakfast. You missed the 21 that left just before you. We also saw the 3 heading North on I5. Saw another on our way back from Arizona.

Here today in the great Midwest, I finally saw an Escape Trailer. To be fair, since they are so rare here in the middle of the US, I went looking for this one. I was in Liberty Mo. on business so took a chance to catch Linda at home. She brought home her 17 ft. early this year and was happy to show it to me. It is very well equipped and she is one happy camper. Our build sheet is going in next Tuesday and this helped make one final decision. Thank you Linda. Loren

Loren, those are the only ones we have ever seen also --- the ones we went to view! Well really, I think I did once see an Escape on the road a few years ago when I did not know a thing about Escape. We expect to see a few up in the NW for a change.

Our build sheet is due also. Maybe we should go call someone!

Loren guess I should have let you know ahead of time...back in January we drove right through Olathe on the way from Leavenworth to TX. Then ours would have been the first you'd have seen the the midwest Glad you got to see Linda's though.

Guess you don't get yours in time to come to the Mississippi rally. Oh but I see you do now, are you going?

Random encounter 2 summers ago in a Vermont State Park with our new friends who had looked at Cozy before purchasing their 17. Considering there were only 3 Escapes in the entire state at the time, this seemed amazing!
If only the Eddys had joined us with their 19 ft. Houdini we would have had 100%.
Believe there are 5 or 6 registered in VT now ---a population explosion!

emers382 We are only a mile west of I 35, so next time you come through pm us and stop by. As for the Mississippi rally, we will have the trailer and I will probably be leaving for North East Iowa about that time. Depends when the crops are ready to harvest but will be early this year. If the dates work out, I am planning to swing by and meet everyone although I am not making a reservation as I can't be sure. Loren

We're renting a house on St. George Island, Florida and decided to check out the state park for possible future camping trips. The campground had two fiberglass units, an EggCamper and an Escape 21 (our previous and our present campers). What is the chance of that?

Slim! But did you know that those people are using your 21?

[BCnomad]

1200 mile trip and here my first sighting is at Valley Helicopters in Hope BC. Looks like a 17 with a dark gray jeep.

I'm not sure if this is the right thread, but WE were sighted today!

We were driving home from picking up our 5.0 at the storage lot, getting ready to head out to Kelowna tomorrow. A couple spotted us on the highway, turned around, and followed us home! They were so impressed with the Escape they just had to ask us about it, so we gave them the standard tour

We've done this several times in campgrounds and parking lots, but this is the first time we've been stalked.

That makes three 21s in the area; Pensacola, Milton, and Tallahassee! We'll have to have a rally!

hey, hey. I haven't seen one in quite a while. Just saw a TA go by my house. Mp 15 I-90 St.Regis,Mt. Have fun at the rally would be my guess. Dark pick -up TV.

[Mike Lewis]

I got a glimpse of an Escape with red trim headed eastbound in early afternoon today on I-90 in Spokane. I only saw the back as I was headed westbound, so I'm not sure which model it was.

[bshbros]

Our first sighting! Saw an Escape 5.0 on Hwy 20 between milepost 103 and 104. Tug was a black Toyota. We were hauling our 19' to Osoyoos Lake Veteran's Memorial Park in Oroville, WA.

Just pulled into Redstreak at Radium Hotsprings and spied a 21 with a bike on the back on the overflow parking lot ....

Enroute to the Osoyoos Rally, while northbound on I-5, we spotted 3 Escapes on the same day (May 25th) all heading south. A 17 10 miles south of Redding at 10:50 a.m., then a 21 4 miles south of Redding shortly thereafter, then a 19 at 12:45 near Castella. Didn't catch the TV with any of them. We started wondering if the rally had been moved to California!

[soultrek]

Spotted an Escape in McCall a week ago and stopped to chat. Turned out to be a couple, recently from Pocatello, who now live full-time in their 15A. Bikes on the rear, water toys on the car top, and "everything (they) own" contained within. How cool it that? A short and pleasant contact on the way home to finish packing my own Escape for a long weekend banjo camp excursion.

[ksitte]

As we were returning from a recent camp trip today[6/5],we saw 2 in one day!

One heading east from Missoula, MT, a 5.0 pulled by a pickup, of course, maybe a blue one. Red graphics. Went to quickly to see anything else. The other, a 21 pulled by a GMC SUV, was parked in the Costco parking lot in Missoula. Couldn't see the graphics colors.

We don't see them often in Missoula.
