@@frankyu553 You know I'm not sure the party name. I'm going to look into that, I know a dj who played there and see if he remembers. Dude, I was at all the early EDC party's. Best times of my life!
@@its_x9014 I think this place has been open since the early 80's. But my first and only times was when I was at that rave. I heard on another UA-cam page that it might re-open someday.
Grew up in Hesperia with the Beyer's. Went to school with their grand kids and we used to go stay the weekend and swim and ride dirt bikes, late 70s early 80s. Now I'm getting old in Oregon, what a great childhood!
I used to go to Lake Dolores as a kid with my parents, grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, etc. It was the happiest time of our lives. Special fond memories were made. Its a shame new generations won't get to experience it.
My uncle used to talk about this place alot. As he remembers the waterpark. It was a place to party, meet girls, drink beer, camp out, and have some fun. He'd drive from orange county with friends and stay for a few days. This was back in the 80's, but they had a stand up water slide too this didnt mention, which aren't around anymore. The way he talks about this place I wish it was still around or at least other places like it. Now most teens sit at home play games and dont leave the house much.
Only the owners son's could stand up and slide down..it was to dangerous. The boys were well trained to do it. Nobody else was even allowed to try it. I love that ur uncle had a great time there !!
Around 81 82 time frame. We use to be there several times a year. Mastered stand up slide. We got to the point of being able to do 360`s with a flip off at the end. The main rule back then and it was posted No Beerbongs Allowed. Lol. We still had one. Great times
@@jmchugh6051 yeah exactly how my uncle described the slide. Who knows you probly know the guy. His first name was mark. I hear they don't have them anymore. I guess there dangerous.
Just found this video. I lost a silver dollar necklace (1880's) in that pond before a CRC enduro in the early 80's. We cooled off in the water then dried HOT before getting back to the truck. The water slides at that time were more gruesome than the enduro course. Except for the unexpected mine shafts.....
When I got married in 91 In Las Vegas I seen this water park nearby Baker CA. I passed by a couple of weeks ago and couldn't find it coming back Las Vegas
I went to a rave at that water park in 1996. Man it was windy and party went till 6am. Good times!
Was that one of the early editions of EDC?

I am born and raised in Vegas. We also rode dirt bikes and raced motocross in the 70s. Good times back then.

We used to go around 81 and we were allowed to stand on the slide.

I was stationed at Ft Erwin in 1984 and we used to go to lake Delores
I love these little segments they're very educational...good job💯
We used to go in the early eighties. Camping right next to the water. We had so much fun and we were sad to see it go.
Do you remember the stand up slide? It was like surfing.
@@dizzymindy6024 I do, it took a few times to get the hang of it though.
I visited Lake Deloris 5 times a year from 1975 to 1980 when I was a kid. It was a fun water park. Wish it was still open.😢
I drive past these two places on my way to /from
Las Vegas.
Thanks for the information.
I found it interesting
I always remember crossing this road when I lived in Vegas and visited Southern California. I had no idea it was "famous".

Wait a minute why are you here again I've been going out there since the early 70s I think you guys need to get a hobby or life or both
Beat mad cheeks at lake Dalores 💪🇺🇸
All that tribal land wasted.
So what was the reason for the abandonment of the water park? Liability issues? Poor business? You had one job!
