As I'm driving out of Big Timber, MT enjoying the great scenery I came to a realization, I think...we are just too structured as RVers. We work on schedules, reservations, it's like we're booking flights as we travel by RV. Who is brave enough to just go with the flow, don't make any reservations, find places as you go and just pull off and enjoy the great outdoors. Yes, boondocking, yes, probably have to figure out where the BLM lands are or just wing it and see what happens. I saw so many areas that I would have loved to just pull off and park it for the night. Enjoy the great views, enjoy the boondocking many of our RV's afford via GEN or solar. I think next time I go out to desolate lands I need to take a week and not make reservations and travel a little more free spirited.
Are you brave enough to go where the road leads without making reservations? Can you give it a week's try and see how it works out? I think if you're in the right area such as ID, MT, AZ, SD, etc. it could happen. I think up north would be far more breathtaking than the usual AZ desert landscape.
So yes, I accuse most of us of not living more freely and being too structured in reservation based travels in our RV's.
