The Little, Little Trailer Goes to Girl Camp!




The Little, Little Trailer was born to roll.

There's only so much 'parked under cover' time she can take before she just has to pull on her baby moons, plug in the road-trip tunes,  and hit the highway. Even if it's that long and winding highway she has to take in order to get anywhere.

She can handle dangerous curves, cuz she has some of her own. (Has to be why Sum Boyz Whistle when she goes by.)


One day, The Little, Little Trailer is out taking a wander, when--

'OMG! Look what's up ahead--a whole tribe of other Little Trailers, and they seem to be having a powwow! Let's pull in--maybe the natives are friendly!'



So The Little, Little Trailer turns in by a sign that says GIRL CAMP. Where she receives the greatest welcome ever!

The other Little Trailers all rush out to greet her like she's their long-lost BFF.

'Stay here, with us!' they declare. 'There's room! We'll help you park and set up!'


No way can she pass this up! TLLT accepts the invitation to stay at Girl Camp and gets down to the business of getting herself parked, blocked and leveled.

Whatever these other Little Trailers are up to, it's got to be out of the ordinary.


And it is! Not only does TLLT get a fabulous next-door neighbor, who's nicer than the Welcome Wagon lady, but the other Little Trailers also come right on over for a campfire and some cocktails.

Ahhh, this is the life. GIRL CAMP--TLLT's new favorite cool place!

Further Travels of The Little, Little Trailer


As revealed in her earlier travelogue, The Little, Little Trailer is a true Girl Camping Girl--always hooked up, ready to roll, and spirits open to adventure.



The Little, Little Trailer lives in north Idaho, where the winters are long and the rainy springs seem even longer. So she's sometimes compelled to head south, to the warmer, drier canyon country along the Clearwater, Salmon, and Snake rivers.

Sabo san Lewiston, and beyond--here she comes!




The Little, Little Trailer instinctively knows how to read signs that point to awesome Girl Camping country. So she just girls-up to drive a few steep, winding grades, because paradise in Her Own Favorite Idaho is the payoff!



She has her favorite camping places along the Salmon, between Whitebird and Riggins. She sees many of her own kind all along the way, as there are vintage trailers everywhere in the remote area, or so it seems.


The Little, Little Trailer also loves to go exploring on the west side of Hell's Canyon. None of its towns are on the way to anywhere--exactly what makes them so great to experience.  No fears! TLLT can dry-camp anywhere--she invented the concept, it's what she was made for!


Something else The Little, Little Trailer loves about exploring the seldom-traveled roads of the interior Northwest--she's never far from the company of cowgirls, who are just as untamed as she is. (Plus, they have amazing wardrobes.)


Where to next, Little, Little Trailer? We will all need another trip, very, very soon!
