The pat answer in the past has always been, if the model comes standard with a ladder, the roof is walkable. If it does not come standard with a ladder, it's not walkable. I would assume, stay off the roof the slide out too if not standard with a ladder.

My Montana is the first trailer in 4 I've owned that had a ladder. But even with that, I got on top of the other 3. BUT! I never stood straight up. I was always on all 4's. Never had a problem.

All the others, I swept the side roofs with that 14 foot long pole and brush I had from a 7 foot step ladder. I have an 8 foot bed truck, so the ladder fit with no issues. Not carrying that ladder now and climbing on the roof is much easier cleaning the slides before retracting now.
