    US Northwest Douglas Creek - Overland Adventure & Campout

    The road in from the south is well graded up to just past where the BLM land starts, there is a small area that could be camped in, however we will most likely be camping more to the central/northen end. Once you get to the area with the falls, you have a choice of dropping down a very steep...

    @Foxtato, Welcome the area, as others have said there are endless forrest service roads on the west side of the mountains, a lot of them are fairly short as they are old logging roads that go up to a landing, or have been washed out or gated for various reasons, but just picking an area...

    US Northwest Douglas Creek - Overland Adventure & Campout

    Susan, ultimate decision is up to you as I don't know your trailer or comfort level pulling it off road. Best i can do is give you an idea of what road conditions you may encounter. Most of the road where you would be pulling the trailer is pretty bumpy with rocks, not the typical smooth...

    US Northwest Douglas Creek - Overland Adventure & Campout

    We had not been there before until last Saturday, Not a huge area but some good trails, the water crossings were no issue, but rain up on the highlands turned the clay into a royal mess, did not finish exploring the higher roads as we did not want to tear up the soft roads. Plenty of...

    I do like sketchup but still have a lot of learning to do with it. I tend to use AutoCAD or one of my other cad programs for most designs as I work in those all day for my day job. I have found that sketch up has some pretty cool extensions in the warehouse and a lot of them are free. Cant...

    Looking good Charlie! After building several of this type of project the two biggest recomendations I can give are to use good quality drawer slides and latches, along with pocket screw joinery to attach the pieces together as it is far stronger than just screwing into the edge grain of the...
