Solar Maximus! Optimizing the Sun When RV Boondocking

Unlike a campsite in an RV park, when you're wild camping (or if your prefer - boondocking, dry camping or RVing off the cord) in a remote location like Quartzsite, AZ, you can usually park your RV facing any direction you want to.

Here are some tips on how we get the most out of the sun when we're camping off the grid. These tips are especially useful for winter snowbirding, when nights are cool, days can be warm, and the sun never gets very high in the sky.

We hope these ideas help you make the most out of the sun when you're camping in the middle of nowhere.



We don't pretend to be experts on any particular RV topic, and mostly know about maintaining our own rig. But many systems are the same on different RVs. The advice we give works well for us, but be sure to consult a professional technician if you're unsure about working on your own RV.
