  • During one of our little dirt road ventures we came across this little gem of a camping area. BLM 14 day camping not far from Yuma. In fact it's only a few miles from Fortuna Pond.
    The turn off HYW 95 is at gps coordinates N32.74007 - W114.42625 then just follow the road back as shown on the video.
    We are Jeff and Margie, a retired couple traveling the US in our 33 ft. class C Minnie Winnie that we call April. We are enjoying sharing our adventures with family and friends via UA-cam. Thank you for joining us on our travels and adventures.

    • @RVAshsinApril
      @RVAshsinApril  7 місяців тому

      We didn't stay there long enough to have to worry about that. When we were in the Yuma area we camped mostly at the Imperial Dam LTVA. Which is great, there are dumpstations, water plus over at the boat landing nice hot showers for $1. You check around there are also RV Parks that you can dump at for a fee.

      @@charlestait5303 it's close to 70 miles. On the plus side Yuma has great shopping opportunities, and the option of Fortuna Pond and Mittry Lake for free camping. If you don't want to go that far you could always go to Cibola National Wildlife Refuge which is in CA. about 50 miles from Quartzsite. Plus there is Palm Canyon between Quartzsite and Yuma, it is 27 miles

      My guess would be about 25 miles. There is dispersed camping on Sidewinder Road which would be closer if your going into Mexico. Or if you want to be really close you can park at the Quechan Casino for $10 a night.

    Another place for people to pile on top of each other in the "wilderness". There's too many rigs back there. Them talking about how many rigs can get back there is everything that is wrong with the camping community. They see nothing wrong with how close all those rigs are because they are used to living in apartments and neighborhoods. But it's not ok when there are hundreds and sometimes thousands of acres available.
