I plan with paper maps and then create a GPS map with many waypoints so we can see what WE want to. Never got lost using a variety of paper maps. Good to know! It's kind of funny, but when I am in the car I happily turn down most any road just to see where it goes. But with the motorhome I'm just the opposite - no freelancing for me!

2gypsies Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Here's a video of the motorhome and car being dug out and towed. A GPS has been mentioned over the course of this tragedy and I'm surprised there hasn't been a recovery report and map on the GPS if, indeed, they were following a GPS. This video showed that they had a printout map. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SvuZ_y75EU&ab_channel=HeavyDSparks Quote Full-timed for 16 YearsTraveled 8 yr in a 2004 Newmar Dutch Star 40' Motorhome and 8 yr in a 33' Travel Supreme 5th Wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you all think Dave and I are idiots but I could be wrong about that, too. Intelligent people do idiotic things. it doesn't make them idiots, it makes them human.

bigjim Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Sometimes some of the most experienced and inteligent people make the biggest errors in judgement and it really makes us think it is unfathomable how they did it. Partly we are frustrated that it happened. Maybe in the back of our mind we know it could be us and we don't want to admit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
