At least twice a year, I do some boondocking (or dry camping) with the Ancient and Honorable Order of E Clampus Vitus (ECV). Boondocking, if one isn't familiar with the term, is camping in a RV without any hook-ups (water, electric and sewer).
Self-contained RVs are designed for this kind of camping, but one should be prepared.
Do It Yourself RV has an article on what to bring along for boondocking during the summer months.
They begin with:
Summer is finally here! That means camping season is in full swing and it’s time to take on your camping bucket list items.
For many, one of those bucket list items is going out into the wilderness and boondocking (camping without hookups or a pre-established campsite). This is an excellent goal, and something every camper should experience at least once (if not every day) over the course of their camping lifetime.
Unsure how you can prepare for and prevent these emergencies? Lucky for you, we’ve made a handy list of the top summer boondocking essentials. Of course, these items are summer specific and should never take the place of the items on the usual bookdocking checklist, as the items on the latter will be needed no matter the season. Therefore, you’ll want to make good use of both lists and know you’re going in as prepared as possible.
