  • In this video, we take a look around and provide some information on a sweet, low-cost BLM Bureau of Land Management campground located in the northwest corner of Arizona. It is just off Interstate 15, about 20 miles from St. George, Utah, and Mesquite, Nevada. We visited in mid-March 2024, and the temperature was just about ideal for dry camping: Mild nights and days in the mid-70s, mostly.

    Love how detailed your videos of camping areas are. As a full timer solo female senior, i have stayed in a few places because of your videos. Thank you.

    We reserved space 94 with the cover for mid-May. Thanks for mentioning that a water spigot is available by the road, so we can add some water to the tank in our trailer. The camp description never mentions where the water is located. I was afraid that maybe, just a hose bib was on the restroom building 60 feet from away from the road. Your video of the river bank showed how pretty this campground is. We are just staying one night, but we will enjoy hiking by the river after breakfast. Thanks again for the info and the Google Earth views were cool!

    Thank you for the update & photos. Us old guys get to use the "Pass" and save half the camp fees + free National Parks. Best $20 I have ever spent. Even at the current $80 it a bargain. We got into Crater Lake, Yellowstone & Grand Tetons for free the 1st mont we had it.

    We were there in 2015 and meet another couple from Canada. They pointed out some petroglyphs, so we logged it into GPS and wound out at a dynamite plant, only because we made a wrong turn. Have fun again.

    We just drove through there yesterday! I saw the campground and wondered about it, and then your video popped up before I had a chance to look into it! The drive along that Interstate was beautiful, I loved it. Thanks for the great review! BTW I also saw you guys earlier in the winter when we were leaving Organ Pipe - as we approached I said to my wife "that looks like Ray's rig . . . that is Ray's rig!". You found a nice spot there too with those cool rocks.

    Thank you for this video. We've been debating about which way we want to go to get to Colorado for the summer. Think we'll head there for a couple days when we leave Quartzsite in about 10 days.

    Hey Ray, thanks for all the detail showing us where this on a map. We're staying at Nellis AFB right now and plan on coming up that way in a couple of weeks and will defiantly make a stop there heading up to Utah ...

    Excellent video
    Virgin River Campground is beautiful.
    I stayed there a year ago for a few days.
    My Verizon didn’t work I’d have to walk up to the entrance and hold it up in the air to make a phone call.

    • @LoveYourRV
      @LoveYourRV  5 місяців тому

      That is a nice perk for having the Starlink internet dish. We can use WiFi calling on our phones to call and text, so we have coverage pretty well everywhere except under a thick tree canopy.

    Crazy winds here in southern New Mexico today (Sunday). Our Boondockers Welcome recommended we stay here for an additional couple of days for the wind to die down. Luckily we don't make long term plans these days.

    • @LoveYourRV
      @LoveYourRV  5 місяців тому

      Good plan. :) I always found New Mexico very windy in the springtime. I guess due to the elevation and location on the continental divide.

    That Virgin River Gorge campground is not too far from St. George and it seems like it has been improved, although there aren't any hookups, and therefore if I were to ever take out a travel trailer there, we would need hookups. Currently, my wife and I live full-time in our travel trailer at an RV park in Leeds, Utah.

    Hey Ray have you checked your grid heater bolt on that truck? You tube it it`s a thing & can be catastrophic for the engine.

    • @LoveYourRV
      @LoveYourRV  5 місяців тому

      Yes, I routinely check it. I don't think it's all that common as I'm sure people let everyone know when it happens. :)

      You're welcome. The BLM ranger does occasionally visit to check on things, so if I see them again, I'll ask what a non-smartphone user is supposed to do.
