You live in Alaska and you dont think state park camping is primitive. Alaska must be full of state parks that have never seen a human. I have been in some state parks in the Ozarks that seem a million miles from civilization.
But I would assume that by "primitive" they meant no camping facilities, like comodes and camp sites and such.

State park primitive is "yes" no camping facilities, but I also use it on WMA lands (hunting purposes) that are just cut outs in the woods first come first serve if anyone comes. PS... Alska is a near future trip with the TD. Can't wait!
TD's are very comfortable for sleeping, all bed. The 6 x 10 is a king size bed.

I know the lower 48 is different. I guess any place you can pull a trailer like he has to camp out of I wouldn't consider "primitive". Even in Alaska....but that's just me. I have camped many times what I would really call "primitive". Getting dropped off by float plane hundreds of miles from ANYTHING is what I would call primitive. I guess I still just think of "primitive" as no roads, or even trails. To me "primitive" is a pretty extreme word. I guess it means different things to different people....

In the context of locations where RVs camp, "primitive" is used often by the staff to denote campsites that don't have electricity and sewer and water at the site. I see this in both state parks and national areas (parks, wilderness preserves, etc). "Backcountry" is used to denote places that are also primitive, but in more remote, wilderness areas--though perhaps not as quite as remote as Alaska permits. IOW: The former would have nearby bathroom facilities--even if just a pit toilet--while the latter you better not forget your shovel and TP. Everyone does know what TP is, right?
It's a turtle plow right.

Thought I would post a couple of updated pics. Just installed a AEV front bumper w/ Warn 9.5cti winch and a Expedition One rear bumper.
