Day one of free boondocking on the Badlands rim, with a heat advisory, a 105 degree forecast, and nothing but solar panels and batteries between us and a very hot RV.
The final week of our 15-day boondocking challenge almost ended early: shaded solar panels, sinking batteries, a truck generator that wouldn't cooperate, and a rescue we didn't expect.
Day one of our 15-day boondocking challenge: we pick up the Brinkley with its brand-new solar and battery system, drive to Dupuis, and learn that setting up off-grid is nothing like parking at a campground.
