Get on roof?
How do you get on the roof of your Airstream? Didn't consider it may be difficult with the rounded roof when I purchased. I have a 20fb Bambi with a solar panel above the door. Thanks!

peace

I try to do everything I can from a ladder, and that includes cleaning my solar panels.

I just lean a ladder on either the aluminum shroud of the awning, or the sill of one of the windows. If that is not possible, lots of padding between the ladder and the skin.

And then lots of plywood if you plan to get up on the roof.

Thanks. At 5'5" I am vertically challenged so all suggestions are helpful. I also see some related posts below.
