What Dave said. Hardest thing for me was learning to back into narrow campground spaces with confidence. Practicing in a big empty parking lot helped a lot, but nothing beats actually doing it and realizing there is no panel of snarky American Idol judges itching to critique your performance. In fact, my experience is that fellow campers are among the most generous and helpful people you'll ever meet. I don't think I've ever pulled into a campsite without someone coming over and offering to help guide me in. Actually, one time I got pretty jack-knifed trying to back up a hill into a site and a guy very nicely asked if I wanted him to back it in for me.

The other great thing about getting out among the other trailer folk in a campground is seeing the different mods and equipment they've accumulated to make trailer camping easier and more fun, everything from outdoor games to cool storage and appliance solutions. Take a notepad and pen and write down the things you forgot or want to add to your next outing.

Also, though it has not been as active in the past six months as it used to be, this forum contains a wealth of information on trailering in general and Sportsmen Classic trailers in particular. When you have time, check out the various topic areas in the forum. You can search for topics by keyword. Often you'll find that someone here has a solution or answer for your question.

Good luck, and welcome to the Sportsmen Classic family. They are great little trailers for the money.
