Check-Ins

Brazil to Argentina:
We parked our camper on the right side, there is a parking lot for busses.
Then we went into the building in the middle of the hole complex. There is policia federal to get the exit stamp for Brazil. Then we had to go to the lanes on the other side (Brazil entry, Argentina exit). The left box is receita federal where we gave our TIP back and got a signature and stamp on our copy.
Back at "our" lanes (Brazil exit, Argentina entry) we made at the left box the entry for us for Argentina. In the right box is Aduana/AFIP. Only a quick look from outside into our camper. We got 8 month TIP.
It was quick.

All paperwork was done and we drove on. We knew that we have to pay peaje, but did not expect such a difference to the last entry here in iOverlander:

!!! Peaje for a big rig is BRL 250 or Arg$ 37.900 (~€47), it is category 3 !!!
We tried to negotiate but no success. You can pay with creditcard.

Category 1 is now BRL 80

Brazil to Argentina:

car = category 1 = BRL 80,00

car with trailer = category 2 = BRL 120,00

big rig (MB1017A) = category 3 = BRL 250,00 or Arg$ 37.900,00 (~€47)

Maybe the prices from Argentina to Brazil are different.

beautiful view of the city from up high on the mountain. the way up is a relatively easy stairway. the last quarter is a bit tougher, but even lower points have a nice view of the city

here is the trail to the top of Cerra de la Cruz mountain

Free parking from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. in downtown Lexington, Massachusetts.
Very large parking lot. Sign saying: Free parking: MON-SAT (8PM to 8AM) & All day Sunday
No other restriction is indicated. We parked our 20ft Promaster easily with the bike rack on the grass.

We suddenly had a loss of power and white smoke from the exhaust of our Landcruiser HZJ78. Stopped by at this workshop on a Friday at 2:30pm. They helped us on the spot and found the issue in our injection pump within 1,5 hours.
Very reasonable price (not even 20€).
They are specialists in Diesel engines.

Easy access. Potable water, sanitary dump, and trash. Bit of a wait on a holiday weekend but usually no one here

Stationnement gratuit de 20h à 8h au centre ville de Lexington,Massachussetts.
Très grand stationnement. Pancarte disant : Free parking: MON-SAT (8PM to 8AM)& All day Sunday
N’est pas indiqué autre restriction. Nous avons stationné notre Promaster 20 pieds facilement avec le rack à vélo sur le gazon.

Talked to David and stopped by today. he's a genuine dude helping many of us out and it's well beyond appreciated! Surely, if I had a house with parking out front, I would be doing the same! Very inspiring and grateful for his kindness.

Small grass area with breathtaking views over the beach and bay below. No services, but full LTE. Access is up a small dirt road on the left as you get down Wayside Dr to the beach. Would suit small off road vehicles only (Jeeps, small vans etc). Steep, and might be difficult in/just after heavy rain. 4x4 recommended, 4Lo required if it's muddy.

A 4x4 SWB Sprinter might make it, if you don't care about pinstriping.

Room for two Jeeps, maybe 3 if you're very coordinated and don't care about being level.

We talked to the motel manager and they told us that as of last week they are no longer allowed to tell people they’re allowed to camp here. They said if you’re too tired to keep driving then they aren’t allowed to tell you to leave, and they haven’t seen any rangers patrolling. We didn’t risk it! The water tap was great though.

Fire road, quiet with several pull offs with fire rings. This is right off 67 so you can hear some noise.

Such a pretty spot to camp. We spotted it on the way to Alaska and pretty happy we got to stay there on the way back. We couldn't hear road noise much but we did get woken up by a couple of mice getting stuck on our sticky traps that are always there behind our cupboards. Not 100% we picked those up there but it did not help the sleep.

pernoites no estacionamento da loja Havan Brás Cubas em Mogi das cruzes, fui bem recepcionado, banheiros limpos, energia e água, ótima experiência.

They have a nice vault toilet here now at the entrance to the blm area. Still a great quiet stop.

As previously described, large lot to park our truck camper along the edge after getting diesel. It got quiet around 11 pm, didn't wake up from truck noise at all. Slow Verizon signal but happy to have it! Nice visitor center across the road but it closes for the season on 9-16 I think.

Nice place to have a rest, 100bob for double room with private bathroom and 80bob without. Hot showers, nice garden to rest, WiFi, big and secure parking for bikes, motos and motorhomes. Quiet place with good location

Quiet after 11:00 pm, trains nearby, washrooms, nice beach, dog park, kids playground, one night, no sign, no problem

$4 plus tax for 8 1/2 minutes. Enough time to clean everything.

Very nice place -hot showers and clean. Safe gated parking. We are here on a Friday- the restaurant is closed and no party

This lot allows overnight parking and there's a ton of other vanlifers here. Right next to a police station. Very noisy from the local bars but Rockaway is a great place to surf. Definitely a drinking town. Gets really busy on the weekends.

Large, flat campground with with nearly 360 views. Very pretty! When I pulled in a few cows were hanging out at the site but they left shortly after I parked. Big rig friendly, could fit multiple campers at the spot. A handful of other sites to choose from close by. Accessible with 2WD unless it’s rainy/muddy. 2-3 bars of T-Mobile LTE

second year camping up here in our van, we love it. the views coming in from the breck side are beautiful, right above town, overlooking the valley. BUT we pulled in at 4pm yesterday and hung around until 8:30am today and got a knock from a Forest Service Ranger letting us know we had to camp at designated sites. this must be new because we had no problems parking on the large pull offs last year. he was nice, but when we followed his directions to find the designated sites we drove for 1 mile and only saw sites 0 - 2. 3 - 24 must be much further. there is no signage indicating which pull offs are NOT allowed for camping, so it all feels very disorganized. if you’re rolling in late and leaving early, i honestly don’t think you’d have any issues parking at the other pull offs, but just a heads up (it’s labor day weekend, so maybe they’re just cracking down on it harder because of that). decent amount of traffic because it is a mountain pass scenic road. met some nice people up here. close to some great trails. 1-2 bars at&t before site 2, 0-1 bars at&t at site 2. no pit toilets that we’re aware of.

very welcoming staff. place for tents available. very clean restrooms

Didn't stay, but still exists and seemed open in September 23.

This clinic still exists, but like the original poster mentioned, it is very slow with a long line. I tried going on a Friday at 1, but they were saying 40min per person wait, with at least 8 people ahead of me. Part of the line was inside at the vaccination point, part of it was outside the station.

I ended up going to the airport clinic instead. You can find a write up of where that is on this blog: https://trevorocity.com/free-yellow-fever-vaccine/

I do not believe this location is Forrest Service land. I couldn’t verify on the FS website that this is public land. We were kindly asked to leave by a property owner or worker.

We met the village chief who authorizes trips to stay on this land for free. The children will welcome you with their best smile and joys. The visit to the cave really your detour.

Can fill your propane tank, there is a long pipe enough too fill the fix one too (in your camper).

1.499$/L

It’s a family business, the guys was with his children.

Somebody ruined the fun and now this location does NOT allow overnight stays. :(
