My 171EXP does not have a ladder. Am I able to get up on my roof and walk around to inspect and seal and do whatever when the time comes?? Id like to but I also dont want to do any damage.

Even though the roofs of Keystone Passports are not considered "walkable", they will still support the weight of an average sized person when properly positioned. It's advisable to lay down a rigid piece of wood or thick foam board to help distribute the weight over several rafters.
I bought an 8'x4' sheet of 2" foam board and cut it up into four 2'x4' sections. I stagger them out on the roof over at least two rafters. My wife and I have both been up on the roof together using this method without damage to the decking or roofing membrane.

I was actually thinking of using something to distribute my weight, thanks for the foam board idea.
