Has the migration started

Friday, saw over 100 MH's and fiver's heading west on I-10 between P-cola & I-75. Didn't count TOADS or class c's. Saw 6 Monty's heading N on 75 and too many to count others.

With the crappy weather in the north, one would figure that it wouldn't be starting already...but it has. Rigs leaving here every day...guess mid to high 80's is to much heat for a lot of folks here in sw florida. John

Yup, it is hard to figure considering the weather, but some, particularly Canadians have to leave when they have to leave.

Migration, fall and spring, seems to start by the calendar rather than the weather.

We're not going anywhere until May. Don't want to chance running into the nasty stuff.

I'm with mhs4771, we were planning on hooking up and heading north May 1st, but now we are kind of thinking around May 15th. Based on the amount of traffic we are still seeing locally in the Ft. Myers and Ft. Myers Beach area I don't think that many have started leaving from here yet.

Most folks in our park leave after the first of april because of the seasonal rate plan. We pull out the 16th of April

The sun is shining, everything is melting, the Montana is no longer a big lump in the snow. Apparently, the stories of no camping season up here this year have been greatly exaggerated. Come on up!

We pulled into Camp Verde on Monday, coming from Spring, TX. Not missing all of the rain they had down Houston way. The park here is nearly to the brim. Some week-enders, but mostly birds. We're not leaving until the first of May. No need to tempt fate. I've seen snow and freezing temperatures in Kansas in May.
