    The old gas station was not originally at THAT spot. Was up at the main intersection and owned by a man they called Squock.

    Russ, When you return to Chloride, about 1 1/2 mile passed Chloride turn off going toward Hover Dam, is Big Wash Rd.. If you take that scenic road, it will take you to Windy Point campground. Its above Chloride, 6000+ elevation. The road going up there is nicely graded. I believe, you can take your van up there cuz I saw a car camping there about 2 years ago when I drove my VW off road buggy and did the loop trail. The campground is nice. You can't do the loop trail with your van cuz its very rough on the other side. Your buggy can make it though. Almost at the end of the loop trail you pass through the Mural and end up in Chloride. There are some disperse camping along the road going up Windy Point campground also. 35°23'17.28" N 114°21'29.26 W on the other side on HWY 93 is huge abandoned mine also . The dirt road going to the mine is nice. Perfect ride for your buggy. Have fun!

    It gets just as hot in summer as Las Vegas. I Spent Over 20 Years In Las Vegas And Visited Chloride Many Times.I Think It Is More Populated Now Than It Was in the 80s-90s. I Bought Land Down The Road At Dolan Springs Back In The 80s. Im Going Back To Dolan This Fall For Some Camping for a month or So. So Many Great Memories Of My Life In Mohave County. Cant wait to Snowbird it again this Year And All The Rest Of The Years I Have Left. Thank You For This Video.

    The Murals are definitely worth seeing and as the locals there will tell you: "About the time you decide that you better turn around because the road is getting too rough, you're now there." We did it 2-up on a 100% street motorcycle.
    The Restaurant / Bar was pretty decent. People, mostly construction workers were staying at the motel. The Cemetery is worth spending some time there for the history, if that interests you.

    It probably is a little cooler there. I noticed it is about 4000 ft. elevation. I was stationed at Ft. Huachuca, AZ in the mid 70's and it is at an elevation of about 4600 ft. If it was 110 in Phoenix and 100 in Tucson we would be at about 90. Pretty nice climate actually.
