    It’s (press-kit) if you are a local, I really miss living there and this video has brought me so much joy. I could recognize where you were on the trail by the potholes I’ve driven that path so many times. Further up you drive along a cliffs edge that over looks skull valley and if you keep going you hit a weird 4-way stop in the middle of the woods where you can turn left and head back to town going down copper basin. Oh I wish I was there to show you all the cool spots I’ve found exploring those trails over the years. I wish you all the best.

    I lived in Prescott for 18 years. Just retired and am full-time RV'r with boyfriend (Prescottonian 26 yrs), for 10 months now. Prescott is an awesome community. It was time for us to leave to find new cool, little towns. Glad you visited and enjoyed our town 🧡.

    Hi Chantelle,
    If you are still somewhat close to Prescott, may I recommend:
    Saturday is the Prescott Valley Days parade- ALWAYS a lot of fun (and free). Most
    Saturdays mornings in front of the Pruitts Furniture from 8am -2pm you'll see a Semi in the parking lot, handing out Fresh food boxes and Fresh Veggies (including milk, and other goodies often with doggie treats) they pass them out for free, no questions or limits... and for camping that is great, head up Hwy 89A towards Jerome, and when you reach the top of Mingus Mtn, there is a camping area called Potato Patch, run by the Forestry Service. The lower campground has about 15 or so spaces (with electric) but they're usually taken, but the upper campground is more beautiful, in my opinion. There are restroom facilities, and lots of stunning camping spots and is also FS managed, plus there are enough neighbors to feel safe, yet your privacy isn't invaded. Make sure the pup doesn't take any adventures at night without you, because there are some big owls up there. Anyways, hope you enjoy our little slice of heaven!

    Beautiful shots of the snow on the brown leafs . I love that elevation, It:s the conifer forest thats so cool in arizona. It:s a mixture of Oaks, pinion pine, ponderosa pine ,
    so many species of differant trees and plants all together. The more i watch your channel ,the tougher i see you are. Thats cold weather to be camping in a van. You will
    love Sedona , .

    We met a very nice police officer while overnighting behind the closed Sam's Club in Prescott. He stopped to tell us we couldn't stay there, and ended up having coffee with us and a nice chat. lol! He said it was Pres-citt Like biscuit.. He tols us all about the beggars on the street corners and how they really lived. The guy on the corner by the Cracker barrel actually did not have cancer like his signed stated, and he had a very nice car parked around the corner form where he was begging, waiting to take him home to his nice house. Lol! Cons. We did love Prescott and plan to head back there this year. Might have to check out your mountain view spot if my Toyota Motorhome can make it up that road. Happy trails!

Hope you could enjoy Granite dells driving in, the view we could see in the video didn't do it justice. You didn't get any video of our lakes. They are recommended stops, free on Wednesdays.
