Boondocking 101: Solar, Water & Waste Checklist

Written by Sarah Mitchell — 12 years boondocking across 38 states, from Arizona desert to Appalachian back roads. This is the exact system check I run before every off-grid trip.

Use this checklist to audit your rig's solar, water, and waste systems before you head out. Check each item as you verify it. Your progress saves automatically — come back anytime to pick up where you left off. Takes about 20 minutes to complete if your systems are installed, longer if you're still building out.
