Below: Lee Duquette liked the looks of the spiral staircase leading up to the water tower. But he sure would not like to climb up it.

Below: Turning left onto Garrington Island Road was extremely difficult in a 40-foot motorhome towing a car. Leaving that road was not quite as difficult, but still tricky. Luckily, Lee Duquette is experienced driving the big RV. The lanes in the road were also quite narrow and caution is recommended on corners.

Below: The right hand turn at the boat-launching area near the above sign, was an extremely narrow road with soft shoulders. If RVs are only coming or going at standard check-in and check-out times, there should not be a problem. Two big RVs are not going to be able to pass each other easily, if at all. Once when leaving the campground in their toad, the two RV Gypsies met up with a stopped tractor. The workers directed them around the tractor. The two RV Gypsies were glad they were not in their big RV at the time.
