We just got back from a week of boondocking in the Eastern Sierra -- please feel free to check out the pictures:

Eastern Sierra Boondocking and Hiking

As I have said before, the tips that I have gotten from folks on this forum have been tremendously helpful -- we had plenty of water (30 gal. tank plus five six gallon canisters), and plenty of electric power (two group 27 batteries with over 100 amp hour capacity each). We did not need to run the generator (although we brought it along, of course), and we did not feel like we were in danger of running out of any of our "consumable resources." Although the shower in our tiny trailer is unbelievably small, it is amazing how luxurious it feels just to have a hot shower at all, in the middle of nowhere!

Great photos. We too are more inclined to dry camp. Isn't that what all the Go RVin ads market?
