That was a great site, I bet it felt good waking up and looking out your window and seeing that view sitting down eating your double yolk eggs and bacon. Great video.
i asked a statistician friend of mine at MIT to calculate the odds of 3 double-yolkers in a row and he ran the numbers and it came back; 1 in 65,738,993,062,222,905,656,778,191,104,305 give or take.
This is a cool place, Mark. I'm glad you showed it to us. It takes years to learn about Arizona -- it's so big and beautiful and filled with camping spots. Take care. I can't wait for next video.
Three double yoker day never seen that before I grew up around egg farms ( family ) and any double yoker is lucky so it had to be a stellar day for you. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 😀
45 degrees is a heat wave for us here in utah. Lol. That place looks so fun . We have a Rhino to explore with. Digging the fishing opportunities also. Thanks for sharing this. Be safe in your travels.
One of my first times getting thrown on a motorcycle was riding in a cow trail similar to that one. Ever since I've ridden to the side of them. They chock up your turn radius, and have a tendency to "trip" your steering. Anybody who tries riding in one for any length will get an understanding of what I'm talking about.
This place wasn't crowded at all. Lot's of spots to choose from. Excellent spot for the Winter Solstice! Also, there is almost no light pollution at this location. Excellent star gazing place.
Hi there! I have started to fall in love with your channel. just the right length of time for video and all the information you need. Thank you so so much! Jodi
I retired from trucking this past April of 2020. I bought a Ford Transit van and moved into it. I'm planning on heading out there by the end of April before it gets too humid here in Charleston SC. That's quite a game trail!
It looks like I mispronounced Aguila in this video. The closest city is named Agulia, and it is pronounced like Ah-geela. Thanks NUGGET SHOOTER JOURNALS for the correct pronunciation!
Nice video! I'm down in Tucson, AZ volunteering for the Sabino Canyon Recreational Area. I got a kick out of seeing the same Honda Rally I own and the same HWK jacket! My first year truck camping, from Iowa. Safe travels!
@@nathanielplenge Thanks Nathaniel! Sounds like you have a good volunteer job. Pretty neat. I love my Rally and love my HWK gear for sure. LOL Thanks for watching! And have fun camping!
Nice Views! Live in Arizona over 35 Years, been to practically every Lake but Alamo, now I know what it looks like, I'll have to plan a Fishing Adventure there, got some BIG Bass. Thanks for sharing! 👍 🤠
Thank you for taking the guesswork out of searching for a dispersed campsite with small kids. Heading up there in the next few weeks for some family camping fun!
Awe sweet wild burrows. I haven't seen any wild ones since we went to a mining town in Oatman Arizona. The deserts there are something. Thanks for sharing
That is such a beautiful spot Mark. I did not get over there when I was out in Arizona in 2017. I'll certainly keep those coordinates you put in the video and maybe make it out there next year. I spent four months traveling and camping in New Mexico and Arizona and still did not see that area. That's why I need to go back out there so much in both of those states that I want to see. I don't have my little travel trailer anymore. Due to finances and hospital bills I had to sell it and the big truck. so now I tent camp out of a small car. But I still love it and plan on going more. I did purchase a really good all season Kodiak tent. Thanks again for your hard work. As usual you always do such a beautiful job with your videos. If this pandemic winds down some I plan to spend all of the winter months out there again next winter. Already it's too damn cold here in East Tennessee. You please stay safe and stay healthy. Thank you so much for sharing this.
This spot was amazing. I really enjoyed spending time here. There is definitely a lot more places I need to check out. Lots of places and little time to do it. LOL Sorry to hear you having to sell your trailer and hospital visit. You definitely need to come out here again. I'm still amazed at all the camping spots here and the amount of BLM land set aside for camping. You stay safe also.
@@DispersedCamperMan thank you. Lung cancer took a lot out of me not just my left lung and empty my bank account.. But I'm a fighter. I'm back to doing all the things I want to do. Maybe a little slower and out of breath climbing an elevation but I make it. I think I'm doing pretty good at 71 Going on 30. I've still got a hell of a lot that I want to do. So I need to hang around a hell of a long time. I'm lucky. I've had a wonderful life. My farm and home is paid for and I've had the wonderful chance to see lots of the world. I've lived in India working in Africa and lived in Nepal. Lots of chances to hike and explore years ago. Maybe I'll run across you out there somewhere one day it would be great to sit by campfire and chat awhile. I always look forward to all of your videos.
Thought it was funny that you got 1 thumbs down can't imagine why your video capture was 110 percent awesome! Chalk that up to can't please everyone. LOL
I would be coming to Alamo lake from the north. Alamo Rd out of Yucca 52 miles of washboard gravel road. Midway one desert ends and another begins But most info I’ve read is from people out of,say, Phoenix? Not sure if there’s anything to do,see on north shore side.
I don't know. But I did see RV's camped on the northern side. I looked to see how to get over there for the next time I'm in that area. Beautiful country on the northern side to.
I always like to watch your camping ventures. I appreciate when you note the location on the map or give the details where and how to get to it. Keep up the good work my friend..
Beautiful! I've been on the East Coast for a bit on a trip, and it's not like back there!! Can't wait to get back to some free country! Thanks for vid! Stay safe and God Bless!
The ghost town of Alamo was once the best ghost town in AZ. It's on the bottom of the lake now. Alamo road from I40 down to Alamo lake is a great off season drive. Lots of old mines in the area.
Wow idk there was blm land out by Alamo. That's beautiful! And the roads look pretty decent enough I could get my van down some of them. Thanks for posting!
Camped here since 1982', The state park has full hookups, a small store, Wayside back in the '90s had a Bar with food. Very quite with many stars at night!
My mom's boyfriend in 82 owned the General store there ran the rv hookups etc and dealt with the dam etc. I used to go fishing up there in 82 83 84. His buddy that also helped run the store campground etc was an MP at roswell when the whole roswell incident happened...good times around the fires at night..I would drive the camp ground golf cart around when I was 12. Good times. Good bass fishing
Gorgous! Absolutely stunning! Thanks for sharing! I think the closest I have ever been to this area is Seligman or Kingman. Would have loved to see this!
There is a campground I want to stay at northeast of you on 93 called Burro Creek. It is located in a valley below a steel arch bridge that looks really cool. You can see the arch structure shadows in google maps satellite view. Not BLM but Might be an interesting sight and this time of year, few people. I was wondering about those eggs. Lot of interesting sights in that area.
I've stayed at Burro Creek twice. It's beautiful. It's a BLM fee campground. Apparently the fee has gone up to $14/night. I think it was $10 a few years ago, and I have the Senior NP Pass so half off. I remember seeing a vehicle or two parked on the left side of 1.25 mile approach road one time. Since it's BLM land I'm thinking they boondocked there for free since they weren't in the campground. Might need a high clearance vehicle to go off the road. It's been a few years but I'd like to go back. The bridge is beautiful but you can definitely hear it when a vehicle goes over it.
Love the video. I'm from the area (our ranch is on the map you posted). You might be closer to Aguila with your motorcycle on some rough roads, but by normal travel, you're closer to Wenden.
LOL, love your egg comment...im in phoenix, bought the same eggs from walmart and out of the first three eggs i used, two were double yolks. this was on 12/17/20. havent had a double yolk in years.
Same here. I just cracked three more eggs and two of the three I cracked were double yoke. Out of the six I've used so far, five were double yoke. I have six more eggs to go. LOL
@@DispersedCamperMan Double yolks used to be rare, but when the "egg factory" chickens don't lay, it's just like when a woman has trouble getting pregnant. They give them hormones to produce more eggs. People with no history of twins in their families "miraculously" have twins... Or triplets... Or octo-mom 😂 I've had chickens all my life, I've only had a double yolker twice. I'm sorta grossed out by store bought eggs, ya just don't know what the chickens have been fed, drank or injected with. Sorry for the long comment, just felt like sharing the knowledge. If you're ever around Redding, CA dm me and I'll load you up with organic farm eggs & a bottle of our homemade wine from our little vineyard 😎
Love all your videos and thanks for providing the locations. You're a hero 👏 🙌 🙏❤ Just subscribed. Will share your channel with friends. Good job!! Keep doing what you're doing.
As a small child I lived there, my father was the foreman at the copper mine at Alamo, before there was a lake. The old school house sits at the bottom of the lake.
Great spot, not far from Wickenburg (great little western town) if you're headed west check out the spots on HWY 395 Eastern Sierra, you'll love Alabama Hills, but might be chilly now.
Thanks for the info! The Alabama Hills are definitely on my bucket list. I don't know if I'll be heading that far west. But if I find myself close by, I might head over that way.
Great content. I am a new subscriber. I want to come out there Feb/March from Michigan. I have a Van and 4 Huskies. I need places like these so we aren’t bothering people with the dogs. I don’t have 4 wheel drive
Same here. I subscribed also. You have a cool and calming voice. I watched Bob Wells for about 7 months. Good info but he repeats himself constantly. Lol
I do love hearing the coyotes long, rising and falling song in the dead of the night. Pretty cool sounding. I'm really looking forward to see my first rattle snake here in the desert. I do believe they are hibernating now, but I'm always on the look out for them. The desert is very much alive! And very beautiful if you know what to look for.
@@DispersedCamperMan That's for sure... especially when they are "playing games". I was stationed on Kadena A.B., Okinawa Japan twice (fighters) and Griffiss AFB in Rome, NY (Bombers), plus a few in Korea that don't exist. Wintering down in Florida now. There is a range around 12 miles the way the crow flies away from me. I'm right on the afterburner run in. EVERYBODY (Air Force, Navy, Marines) comes here to play on the weekends. When they are practicing with the bunker busters, they shake the ground hard all the way over here :) As for rattlers... as long as they leave me alone and stay away from my camp... fine. Otherwise, they will be introduced to my 'little friend'.. a 3" barrel 44Mag with snakeshot :) It's always on my right side in a cross-draw holster (left-handed). The left side is taken up with a 9mm. I'm ready for any four (or two) legged problem, or one that slithers. If there's one thing I learned in the military... always be prepared. And when I hike, it's in jeans and boots... and I know the areas to watch out for. My buddy says all I need is dual ammo belts across my chest and I'd look like an 'el bandito' in a Spaghetti Western!!!
@@DispersedCamperMan Most of my time in Korea was way back in 76-77. At that time an apartment (and the moose and the food and everything else that went with it) was $100 to $125 a month. Good times... oh yeah... good times.
No out of state fishing license on me. LOL It's getting down to low 30's at night here. But it warms back up to 60's-70's during the day. I can't complain about the weather though.
Thanks! Surprising this spot being out in the middle of no-where, there was excellent cell service. I watched videos on my phone. I try to remember to put in my videos about cell service, I forgot to on this one. Thanks for watching!
I have the exact same '18 Rally. 365# is just too heavy for riding MI forests and even unloading, I've been pushing it up ramp, but going to have to try using throtle. The bike 1st gear is too low(slow) and 2nd gear is too (high)fast for forest 2 tracks. I'm going to trade to the new Honda Trail 125. I have less than 600 miles on Rally, had a recall for transmission circlip right after I bought it. New to your channel, I've a sister in Rogers, AR, hope to check it out this Spring. Disperse is the only way to fly. Campgrounds are FULL! Cheers!
It sounds like the 125 would be ideal for your type of riding. I couldn't believe the dealership had not already fixed the Circlip prior to me buying it. Like you, I got the recall a couple of months after purchase, and of course I was out of state when I got it. Now I know to ask prior to buying to see if there are any recalls on a bike prior to purchasing. I swapped out my rear sprocket from a 40T to a 42T and noticed a gain in power in all gears. Especially first gear. I was glad I did it. I don't stall out in first gear any more. I also don't have to down shift going up hills in high gear as often either since the swap. Rogers, AR is close to the Ozark National Forest. Lots of trail riding there. Good luck with your new purchase!
It was definitely a beautiful spot. I don't think you will have any problems with your Caravan. I saw all types of trucks/cars there. Class A, B, C's and travel trailers, fifth wheels parked at that location. The dirt road in was good, a couple of wash board areas, just take it slow. You need to also be mindful during the rainy season. You probably don't want to be caught out there when it starts to raining a lot.
great video! I too travel in a truck camper to ride dirt bikes etc. Heading up to Alamo in the next week. If your around let me know and we can go ride!!
I really wish I was there right now, a ride around the Alamo sounds great. I'm currently in Arkansas for most of the winter. I'm headed westward sometime around March. Have fun! and Thanks for Watching!
I have a 40' bus, in your travels around the lake, did you find any roads that a bus could travel on that lead right up to the lake? And camping spots right on the lake big enough for a Bus to get to?
I was there a little over 2 years ago. While there, there were large class A’s very close to the water. There are spots close to water, if someone isn’t already occupying them. It is a very wash board road in. Take it slow.
@Karen Cox After the 14th day of occupation, the camper must move outside of a 25 mile radius of the previous location until the 29th day since the initial occupation. www.blm.gov/programs/recreation/camping
Hey Mark, ever come up to Canada to do some camping? In Ontario you can camp for free on crown land (land owned by the government) for up to 21 days straight. Ontario will blow you away.
I'm wanting to say the day time highs got up to mid 60's, but at night it dropped to mid 30's. With my catalytic heater on low at night, I had some very good sleep. I loved it! Thanks for watching!
Nice video!...Does that motorcycle hitch carrier wobbles much? If you have not done yet, could you show how you set it up and use and even film it while you drive? Thanks
Going down the highway it doesn’t wobble at all. I’ve recently did a video showing my motorcycle hitch set up. It starts toward the end of this video. th-cam.com/video/WNgm9jEBsVA/w-d-xo.html
I served in the military with a guy named Agulia. I would have thought it was pronounced the same. Lol. Thanks. Your lucky to live in that beautiful area!
You are correct like others have mentioned already. I was thinking Yoke, but said Oak. They do sound kind of alike. LOL It may not matter also, but, you forgot the "S" in Quartzsite. Thanks for watching!
@@DispersedCamperMan Double yolk eggs are supposedly a sign of good luck and fortune coming your way........Thanx for the video and sharing the great spot.
I sometimes talk with folks camping out. But with this COVID thing still out in full force, I don't talk to folks as much. Majority of folks are very friendly and want to strike up a conversation. At Ironwood Forest National Monument a fellow RVer was walking by on the road, saw me outside, walked up and we carried on a three hour conversation. LOL We did keep our distance and we just shared stories of where we've been and where we were headed. Get the motorcycle, I've only been riding for almost 2 years. I love it. I also highly suggest taking a motorcycle safety class prior to purchasing if you don't have any experience. It's what I did.
Hello Phillip! I didn't fish this lake, I didn't have an out of state fishing license on me. The fishing must be good, there were several boats on the lake fishing while I was there. I only seen the burros that one time. I was lucky and glad I got a chance to see them.
Boy where I live must be heaven if you think that is beautiful. Dry dirt, gravel, brown shrub bush, cactus. Glad you enjoy it, but living with green leaf trees and blue clear water, showered with flowers, birds chirping and butterfly's, life in tropics is heaven.
Son, you must have misunderstood what I was saying, never said the place was the most beautiful place I've ever seen. The desert does have it's beauty. It's sad that you can't see it. Very sad indeed.
Thanks!
Thanks John for the Thanks! Much appreciated!
I just finished my van build so it's my dog and my maiden voyage....I'm excited!
That sounds very exciting! Have lots of fun and enjoy the trip!
That’s great, Kandy. Hope you and your pup enjoy it for many, many years. Merry Christmas!
Wonderful Kandy!! How’s it going?
This is by far the quietest place I've ever camped, Stargazing also the best! Fished here since 1982with my son caught many bass.
Couldn't agree more!
That was a great site, I bet it felt good waking up and looking out your window and seeing that view sitting down eating your double yolk eggs and bacon. Great video.
Lol. You nailed it exactly. Lol.
i asked a statistician friend of mine at MIT to calculate the odds of 3 double-yolkers in a row and he ran the numbers and it came back; 1 in 65,738,993,062,222,905,656,778,191,104,305 give or take.
LOL I got 7 doubles in that carton of eggs. What are the odds.
It’s got to have something to do with the jumbo egg size!
Great place. Loved hearing that thud of the motorcycle.....music to my ears.
You and me both! Glad you liked it!
This is a cool place, Mark. I'm glad you showed it to us. It takes years to learn about Arizona -- it's so big and beautiful and filled with camping spots. Take care. I can't wait for next video.
Thanks Rick. I’m lovin exploring Arizona. Lots of camping spots to check out.
I live in PInal AZ and there is so much I am still learning...so much to explore.
Beutiful and peaceful. I felt like I was there. I was in spirit thanks to your filming
Glad you enjoyed it
Three double yoker day never seen that before I grew up around egg farms ( family ) and any double yoker is lucky so it had to be a stellar day for you. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 😀

I was out that way last year. I'm now a retired trucker.
That is a well worn burrow trail. Looks like some of the cow trails in our fields. That is a nice area. Great video Mark 🤝
Thanks! I thought the trail was pretty neat looking.

And I thought you were fixing six eggs lol. That was really a shocker to get that many double yoke eggs, and it looked great!
I couldn't believe the number of double yokes I was getting. It was definitely delicious eating!
Camped here since 1982', The state park has full hookups, a small store, Wayside back in the '90s had a Bar with food. Very quite with many stars at night!

It's been a few years but I'd like to go back. The bridge is beautiful but you can definitely hear it when a vehicle goes over it.
@@websterbarstone The structure is what struck my interest. Very interesting arch.
that place looks like a resort--unreal that that is free land. great video.
Thanks! It's public land set aside for the people to enjoy. It was a great spot to camp at and enjoy the scenery.
Love the video. I'm from the area (our ranch is on the map you posted). You might be closer to Aguila with your motorcycle on some rough roads, but by normal travel, you're closer to Wenden.
LOL, love your egg comment...im in phoenix, bought the same eggs from walmart and out of the first three eggs i used, two were double yolks. this was on 12/17/20. havent had a double yolk in years.
Same here. I just cracked three more eggs and two of the three I cracked were double yoke. Out of the six I've used so far, five were double yoke. I have six more eggs to go. LOL
@@DispersedCamperMan Double yolks used to be rare, but when the "egg factory" chickens don't lay, it's just like when a woman has trouble getting pregnant. They give them hormones to produce more eggs. People with no history of twins in their families "miraculously" have twins... Or triplets... Or octo-mom 😂 I've had chickens all my life, I've only had a double yolker twice. I'm sorta grossed out by store bought eggs, ya just don't know what the chickens have been fed, drank or injected with. Sorry for the long comment, just felt like sharing the knowledge. If you're ever around Redding, CA dm me and I'll load you up with organic farm eggs & a bottle of our homemade wine from our little vineyard 😎
Love all your videos and thanks for providing the locations. You're a hero 👏 🙌 🙏❤
Just subscribed. Will share your channel with friends.
Good job!! Keep doing what you're doing.
Awesome thank you!
As a small child I lived there, my father was the foreman at the copper mine at Alamo, before there was a lake. The old school house sits at the bottom of the lake.
That would be interesting to see. I wonder if folks scuba dive that lake?
I just gotta say how much respect I have for a fellow camper with a super quiet bike. What kind is it? Great videos!
Thanks! 👍 I have a 2018 Honda Rally 250. I really enjoy riding it around on my trips.
thanks for sharing the coordinates
My pleasure 😊
Great spot, not far from Wickenburg (great little western town) if you're headed west check out the spots on HWY 395 Eastern Sierra, you'll love Alabama Hills, but might be chilly now.
Thanks for the info! The Alabama Hills are definitely on my bucket list. I don't know if I'll be heading that far west. But if I find myself close by, I might head over that way.
Great content. I am a new subscriber. I want to come out there Feb/March from Michigan. I have a Van and 4 Huskies. I need places like these so we aren’t bothering people with the dogs. I don’t have 4 wheel drive
Robert here. 100%med.retired from USAF.. Keep doing what you're doing!
Thanks Robert! I'm not quit 100% med LOL But 100% retired. Glad you enjoy the dispersed camping trips!
I really enjoy your videos 👍Just subscribed. :)
Awesome, thank you!
Same here. I subscribed also. You have a cool and calming voice. I watched Bob Wells for about 7 months. Good info but he repeats himself constantly. Lol
Yeah you will love the coyotes and the rattlesnakes, been there loved it and when they are having air games from the base day and night, very cool.
I do love hearing the coyotes long, rising and falling song in the dead of the night. Pretty cool sounding. I'm really looking forward to see my first rattle snake here in the desert. I do believe they are hibernating now, but I'm always on the look out for them. The desert is very much alive! And very beautiful if you know what to look for.
I'm retired Air Force, twenty years. The sound of jet engines are music to my ears. LOL
@@DispersedCamperMan That's for sure... especially when they are "playing games". I was stationed on Kadena A.B., Okinawa Japan twice (fighters) and Griffiss AFB in Rome, NY (Bombers), plus a few in Korea that don't exist. Wintering down in Florida now. There is a range around 12 miles the way the crow flies away from me. I'm right on the afterburner run in. EVERYBODY (Air Force, Navy, Marines) comes here to play on the weekends. When they are practicing with the bunker busters, they shake the ground hard all the way over here :)
As for rattlers... as long as they leave me alone and stay away from my camp... fine. Otherwise, they will be introduced to my 'little friend'.. a 3" barrel 44Mag with snakeshot :) It's always on my right side in a cross-draw holster (left-handed). The left side is taken up with a 9mm. I'm ready for any four (or two) legged problem, or one that slithers. If there's one thing I learned in the military... always be prepared. And when I hike, it's in jeans and boots... and I know the areas to watch out for. My buddy says all I need is dual ammo belts across my chest and I'd look like an 'el bandito' in a Spaghetti Western!!!
@@donf3877 LOL Sounds like you are prepared. I was stationed at Osan, 97-98. Really enjoyed it.
@@DispersedCamperMan Most of my time in Korea was way back in 76-77. At that time an apartment (and the moose and the food and everything else that went with it) was $100 to $125 a month. Good times... oh yeah... good times.
Thanks for sharing I'll have to explore that area someday
It's definitely worth the trip!
Beautiful! great camping spot!
That it was!
Nice! Great information and maps...
Glad you like them!
Good fishing? Looks nice there. 20s and 30s here, and snow on.
No out of state fishing license on me. LOL It's getting down to low 30's at night here. But it warms back up to 60's-70's during the day. I can't complain about the weather though.
Cool area. 🙂👍☕
I really like it.
Great place !
Very nice. Thank you. Great video.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful!Nice work.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful,there is another world 🌎 out there.
There definitely is!
Great video, music , drone footage and scenery. Wondering Is there any cell signal out there? What a find, thanks for sharing.🌵
Thanks! Surprising this spot being out in the middle of no-where, there was excellent cell service. I watched videos on my phone. I try to remember to put in my videos about cell service, I forgot to on this one. Thanks for watching!
I have the exact same '18 Rally. 365# is just too heavy for riding MI forests and even unloading, I've been pushing it up ramp, but going to have to try using throtle. The bike 1st gear is too low(slow) and 2nd gear is too (high)fast for forest 2 tracks. I'm going to trade to the new Honda Trail 125. I have less than 600 miles on Rally, had a recall for transmission circlip right after I bought it. New to your channel, I've a sister in Rogers, AR, hope to check it out this Spring. Disperse is the only way to fly. Campgrounds are FULL! Cheers!
It sounds like the 125 would be ideal for your type of riding. I couldn't believe the dealership had not already fixed the Circlip prior to me buying it. Like you, I got the recall a couple of months after purchase, and of course I was out of state when I got it. Now I know to ask prior to buying to see if there are any recalls on a bike prior to purchasing. I swapped out my rear sprocket from a 40T to a 42T and noticed a gain in power in all gears. Especially first gear. I was glad I did it. I don't stall out in first gear any more. I also don't have to down shift going up hills in high gear as often either since the swap. Rogers, AR is close to the Ozark National Forest. Lots of trail riding there. Good luck with your new purchase!
Wow on the eggs!
Right...
Looks almost exactly like KOFA but with water. Gonna check Alamo out next time I’m in AZ.
You should. I really enjoyed it.
Looks like a beautiful spot and wonder if the road would be OK for a 2015 Grand Caravan pulling a tiny Runaway trailer,?
It was definitely a beautiful spot. I don't think you will have any problems with your Caravan. I saw all types of trucks/cars there. Class A, B, C's and travel trailers, fifth wheels parked at that location. The dirt road in was good, a couple of wash board areas, just take it slow. You need to also be mindful during the rainy season. You probably don't want to be caught out there when it starts to raining a lot.
great video! I too travel in a truck camper to ride dirt bikes etc. Heading up to Alamo in the next week. If your around let me know and we can go ride!!
I really wish I was there right now, a ride around the Alamo sounds great. I'm currently in Arkansas for most of the winter. I'm headed westward sometime around March. Have fun! and Thanks for Watching!
Fantastic video thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have a 40' bus, in your travels around the lake, did you find any roads that a bus could travel on that lead right up to the lake? And camping spots right on the lake big enough for a Bus to get to?
I was there a little over 2 years ago. While there, there were large class A’s very close to the water. There are spots close to water, if someone isn’t already occupying them. It is a very wash board road in. Take it slow.
@@DispersedCamperMan Roger Roger!
Can anyone tell me how far you have to move after 14 days to set up camp again for 14 more days?
@Karen Cox After the 14th day of occupation, the camper must move outside of a 25 mile radius of the previous location until the 29th day since the initial occupation. www.blm.gov/programs/recreation/camping
I know where I’m heading next time, went to Havasu lake last March, your set up is similar to mine, motorcycle included
Thanks Stephen! Glad there's other folks out there who understand the freedom of carry a motorcycle in our travels. LOL I love mine!
New subscriber. Great video. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the sub!
It looks beautiful there
It was!
Nice location. I love burros.
Me too!
Hey Mark, ever come up to Canada to do some camping? In Ontario you can camp for free on crown land (land owned by the government) for up to 21 days straight. Ontario will blow you away.
I would definitely love to visit Canada. I really need to get my passport at least. LOL
That is gorgeous. Anyone know how busy it gets at peak?
I don't. But it'll probably get a little bit busier when the Canadian border opens back up.
Nice shots man! Will def visit that area someday. Subscribed! Like your content.
Thanks for the sub!
What were the daytime highs?
Thanks for taking us along.
I'm wanting to say the day time highs got up to mid 60's, but at night it dropped to mid 30's. With my catalytic heater on low at night, I had some very good sleep. I loved it! Thanks for watching!
I was there last week. It’s still beautiful.
Good to hear. Thanks for letting me know!
Were you on BLM or the state park? Im in a cargo van/ PRomaster 2500- any recommendations on best areas to experience wildlife/birds?
You can also come in from just south of kingman off the freeway to the other side of the lake.
Good to know! Thanks!
Nice video!...Does that motorcycle hitch carrier wobbles much? If you have not done yet, could you show how you set it up and use and even film it while you drive? Thanks
Going down the highway it doesn’t wobble at all. I’ve recently did a video showing my motorcycle hitch set up. It starts toward the end of this video. th-cam.com/video/WNgm9jEBsVA/w-d-xo.html
Enjoyed the video, live near Wickenburg and Agulia is pronounced like Ah-geela
I served in the military with a guy named Agulia. I would have thought it was pronounced the same. Lol. Thanks. Your lucky to live in that beautiful area!
Awesome video. We're out on blm by Quartzite.
May not matter but...
They're " double yolk"
not " double oak" eggs.
🌵
You are correct like others have mentioned already. I was thinking Yoke, but said Oak. They do sound kind of alike. LOL It may not matter also, but, you forgot the "S" in Quartzsite. Thanks for watching!
@@DispersedCamperMan Double yolk eggs are supposedly a sign of good luck and fortune coming your way........Thanx for the video and sharing the great spot.
@@quentonkarlberg2785 Thanks! With all the double yokes, I must be going to win the lottery. LOL Thanks for watching Quenton!
That view at 4:12! I’ve been thinking about a motorcycle and I think you’ve convinced me! Do you talk to many folks?
I sometimes talk with folks camping out. But with this COVID thing still out in full force, I don't talk to folks as much. Majority of folks are very friendly and want to strike up a conversation. At Ironwood Forest National Monument a fellow RVer was walking by on the road, saw me outside, walked up and we carried on a three hour conversation. LOL We did keep our distance and we just shared stories of where we've been and where we were headed. Get the motorcycle, I've only been riding for almost 2 years. I love it. I also highly suggest taking a motorcycle safety class prior to purchasing if you don't have any experience. It's what I did.
hello from the frosty ozarks mark!! hows the fishing. how many days there. any other critters beside the burros tight lines and cheers!
Hello Phillip! I didn't fish this lake, I didn't have an out of state fishing license on me. The fishing must be good, there were several boats on the lake fishing while I was there. I only seen the burros that one time. I was lucky and glad I got a chance to see them.
Boy where I live must be heaven if you think that is beautiful.
Dry dirt, gravel, brown shrub bush, cactus. Glad you enjoy it, but
living with green leaf trees and blue clear water, showered with flowers, birds chirping and butterfly's, life
in tropics is heaven.
Son, you must have misunderstood what I was saying, never said the place was the most beautiful place I've ever seen. The desert does have it's beauty. It's sad that you can't see it. Very sad indeed.
@Trepang 412 and the desert has wild flowers that cover the entire area in the spring
The desert is beautiful in it's own way!
We stayed at the RV park near there last weekend.
