Due to the bumper problem on the first trip here, we again  looked for a new camping spot.  We found a nice wooded spot about 1 1/2 mile  past the Elkhorn Lake turnoff on FR 95.  The site  was well back into the trees, next to the North River. We had difficulty maneuvering into the site, having to go around stumps and trees.  In one area I had to "bridge a low spot with the Lynx Levelers to keep the bumper from bottoming out again!
 
It got so cold Friday night that I turned on the furnace to warm the camper up (I guess it was in the low 50's).  Hard to believe in July!!
 
This was our first trip with our Thetford Porta Potti and privacy tent.  It worked great!  No more digging holes.
