Very good! Most of what I routed (most..) is traveler friendly if you go slow and know how to drive woods roads. Most the Maine North Woods is like this. What is going back to native, is what us Ovrlanders want. Maine North Woods has everything! Except a KOA (thank God)...LOL

I was in Maine heading back into NH searching a passable route. I will in the near future work this deeper towards Maine and the lands between Umbagog and Richardson Lakes. It's one of those unique areas of Maine's wilderness that calls you to explore!



So much to explore and so little time to do so.. 

Safe travels!

P.S. I don't know why it looks like I'm driving so fast... I think I hit 15mph a couple times... LOL

It's all a matter of one's camping style, comfort level requirements, and budget.  One person's castle is another's shack.  Some people can carry everything they want in a backpack, while others prefer a full mobile house complete with electronic entertainment systems parked in an RV park.  For those who find sleeping on the ground is too much for old bones, Olddawgsrule's alternative is certainly one viable way to get out into the boondocks.  There are lots to enjoy out there for all camping styles.

issue with Lance is height/weight and then cost.. Most all in-truck campers start just over 800lbs base weight. Full blown units can easily go over 1300lbs!! Ya, base weight..

My base weight is only 80lbs over stock. Mainly due to the bed coming off.

Anywho.. Maine's North Woods has a lot of opportunity for all of us. Just take it slow!

Safe Travels!

Lance makes some really nice campers for pickup trucks.  They're out of my budget, but really nice.  https://www.lancecamper.com/truck-campers/
