Took the M1009 and M101a1 on its second Boy scout trip over the weekend and had a great time. The trailer is stock on the outside and kitted up inside with bunks and storage for me and the boys.

Mmmmmm...nothing like Dutch Oven cooking outdoors! I have fond memories of the Boy Scouts (I became an Eagle Scout), in a way I wish I had a son so I can see the next generation have a blast as well.

Camo goes well with Boy Scouts!

This was a Council Camporee so all the troops from our area were there.
My MV was a big hit with the Scouts and the adults. Living in southeastern VA
I was not surprised to her "I got one to" or mine is a duce etc... Lots of fun!

Nice set up.

I have been using my M1009/M101 for the past few camp outs as well with the Scouts. Before that, the M35 or the M715 was used for just about all of them. The 1009 lets me haul 3 more boys and keep up with everybody else. Big plus.

We are under burn bans 90% of the time around here so open fire cooking just can't happen as much as we would like.

Yes to Sky line drive and last weekend we were at Fentress Airfield.

Next month we camp up at Staunton and are hiking Old Rag. That will be my longest trip to date in the 1009.

Is it possible to see some more pictures of how you set up your trailer, especially the interior. Sounds like a nice rig!

We just got a M101 to go with the M1009, we haven't had a chance to put them together yet but we will next month. Got any more pics of the inside of the 101? Our Scouts love the OD stuff too. Where are the biscuits, can't cook in the dutch oven without making biscuits...lol
