The cell phone thing I'm not quite as concerned about because the places where we'd boondock may not even have cell reception. Nevertheless, the simplest solution would be to just charge up a few of those usb battery packs. I have a cheap one from Monoprice that has enough charge to charge up my iphone three times. That's pretty decent.

In my opinon, go set up in a field not too far from home. It will give you an idea of your current setup's good points and shortcomings. Then you will have a better idea of what you would need/buy/adapt.
Then if you are still of a 'boondocking' mindset start looking into BLM etc.
I live in Canada and have several repeat boondocking places I like to go. A couple years ago I went to one Lake trout spot I like and found a family from Chicago! I found it amazing a family from Chicago found this spot several miles down a logging road with no road signs etc about 2000 miles from home.2018 Dodge 3500 6.7 Cummins SRW w/Aisin

We plan on doing this in my driveway where the trailer is kept lol.
BTW one of the reasons we want to try this is because we spend at least 1 month of every summer in British Columbia. There's so much to see out there! So beautiful. Plus my wife is Canadian so she really appreciates the time she gets to spend "home".

Well I hope the covid crap gets taken care of and we can both go visit the country we don't live in for a vacation.

I am curious if you have been camping in commercial/privately owned campgrounds or state and federal campgrounds? We have a hobby farm in the country so we are used to having our private space. When traveling for kid's sports we are willing to stay at the commercial campgrounds for convenience purposes, but never do so for recreation. For recreation we strictly go to state and federal campgrounds. I'm not sure how it compares to out west, but here in the upper Midwest the federal and state campgrounds have reasonably secluded sites, and most are on or near lakes and rivers. They don't have sewer hookups, but many sites have power.

https://davidodonnel.com/rv-park-locator/ A good place to start researching Campgrounds... I find the National Parks campgrounds a bit tight,with lots of rules, the National forest less so.... When exploring a new area we always checkout nearby campgrounds for future trips.... Army Corp of Engineers campgrounds that we have visited were spread out nicely.... On the road Community Campgrounds are a good overnight option, Although there are lots of dispersed camping options out, west we like having a campground host to keep an eye on things.. Most are quite pleasant to deal with... and if necessary can contact a Ranger in an emergency.....
