Sad but true picture!!!
Hi: All... It's a sad but true picture. My decision to keep our 5.0 home from the covered storage we have always used is questionable. Since we're towing to the sun after the festive season is over, I wanted her close by.
Every day when I come home from work I get shivers just looking at her!!! Any body else got a snow pic. to share to show me "I'm not alone" ? Alf

I haven't got any photos Alf, but that is a very common look to our Escape. It has never been under any cover.

sad pictures
In the early 80's we stored the 13' Scamp out in the snow in Utah for a couple of winters and it would have 2 to 3 feet of snow on top for much of the winter. Eventually it took a new set on the axle a couple of inches lower and the tire would not fit through the wheel well without deflating the tire. We now don't have that problem in Tucson and we can use whatever we have throughout the winter.

Well, I don't want to rub it in, but rather than being under the 15" of snow at home, here is Thanksgiving's trailer photo. Arizona is a bit warmer than Oswego!

Vermilye, nice looking campsite. Can you tell us the name of the campsite? Is it in the Picacho Park area?

Only problem I see with the photo is the trailer isn't hitched up to your tow vehicle ready to start out on a ski trip! (Isn't perspective a wonderful thing?)
