Thanks for the advice !  I might be able to return the favor if anyone is looking for good boondocking spots in Northern Vancouver Island.

Thanks I will search that on the forum.

I would cross at Peace Arch into the US then head south through the San Bernadino Valley (Avoids LA), to the Tecate border x-ing.  As far as where to stop in between I am ope to your suggestions. Thanks

I just bought a 1995 Bigfoot 3000 series camper.  The company states it is good to -40 C if the furnace is on.  It heats the tanks and water lines below the floor so the water system can be used.  Anyone used one of these campers in that temperature ?
