Thank you so much for sharing. I just bought my first camper and am heading out Friday 11/3 to Quartzsite for my inaugural winter. Because of you I signed up for Moon Mountain Mail service.
This video was great! Someday I hope to come to Quartzite, but I don't know anything about it, so this video was great!! I subscribed to learn as much as I can, before I come down there. I'm pretty far away, in Michigan. I would like to come down from Jan.-Feb.
That's a great time to come with lots of activities for everyone. I will be posting additional videos with information on Mail Service, Veterinary services etc this season.
Thank you for this...I'm planning on going to Quartzsite to stay for at least a couple of days to maybe a week for the RV rally and content creators so knowing where all these places are is really helpful...I really want to check out that $1 store...except I couldn't quite tell where it was exactly! lol
@@Livingit1 hubby may not make it, Im heading down with Badge(youtuber&hiswife), I will tow the trailer myself for the first time. Hubby has been teaching me, I think I got a similar size unit as your girlfriend? 17fter.
Awsome! I know you will be in good hands with Badge! From what I understand, he is an amazing mechanic! Look forward to meeting him as well. If you need any help, be sure to let us know.
Yes, very good news, Thanks for the tour, Im a new sub and am looking forward to your future posts. My truck and slide-in should be here in time for next winter in Quartzite @@Livingit1
QUESTION!!!!!!!!!Just found your channel and I like it!! Question. What are the chances or a big developer coming in and ruining this beauty or even building near by which will also ruin this. We are two years from this dream. I am so concerned about it being ruined. Yes QUIET!
Most of the land is BLM land. For a business to come here, they would need more than a seasonal work force. I don't see any big developments coming any time soon. Yhe town has been military training area in past even a Japanese internment camp in Poston not far away. It's very remote for being on I10. The only thing I've see that kinda ruined a small portion of the hundreds of thousands of acres here in last 4 years, was transmission lines east of town. This is really an incredible place with like minded people that enjoy the beautiful Sonoran Desert! Hope you get to experience it in person! Thanks for watching my videos!
@@Livingit1 thank you for answering. I am in inland empire and I have seen so so much investors ruin life for us. My husband is a great rockhounder for the last 4 years. He spends days in the desert camping till I cam breaks way. We have been planning and praying this all comes true. 1.5 years till retirement and hoping we can work seasonal jobs. Thank you. New fan! Thanks for allowing me to dream from your channel.
I was invited to stay at the clothing optional camp, couldnt get up the nerve to do it tho, lol. Thanks for the tour - been thinking about heading back there but im on the other side of the country now 🤔
I plan to include them in a video. Went in a talk to Don, and im really impressed with their pricing and services offered. I like how it's structured as well.
@@Livingit1 100% agree. I went ahead and signed up. I've been with a different local service (that's all I'll say about that). I think with the closing of Quiet Times (great folks there and VERY well organized, they will be missed for sure), and looking at the current local competition, Moon Mountain Mail is in a great time and place to launch this. I like what they've setup, and where they are headed. I believe they are, and will be the best thing going forward in local mail and package service etc.
Nothing about pie? LOL. Glad you had a safe trip there. I just turned in my latest class-b+ for its 4x4 conversion and now heading to Kentucky for some deer hunting. This sudden cold spell might get the rut in motion. Picking up the RV after Thanksgiving and the heading to Q-town. See ya then. Fair Winds.
Sir, there's several discount stores.. One is Kenny's discount store. Everything in the back store is omly a dollar. Then there's another discount grocery so ask someone where it is
Say, lots of people mention the firewood place, but what do you get? Is it a two handed or one handed bundle, and for how much? Thanks for taking the time to show whats up.
I will check later and post in upcoming video. I believe it was between $25-35 last year for a banana box last year. The other place sold by small wheelbarrow for a similar amount.
Low 40's by the end of December, water depends on if you want reverse osmosis or just regular water. In small Containers about 25 cents a gallon gor RO. You can get showers at laundromat on main for $11 which is cheaper than the truckstops. I use water I get from LaPosa south LTVA and run through my Berkey for drinking.
New Arizona legislature on the table. Out of state- "OTHER THAN ARIZONA" registered vehicles will need to pay a fee if in the state for more than 14days, All will need to register there stay. Database will have length of stay fee calculated. Violators will be issued severe monetary penalty fines. Second offenders will be impounded and 3x penalty fine levied.
Good question, some do some don't. Most of the ones that don't keep their dogs under control. But there is always one. My dogs are trained to stay in my campsite. One has to be walked on a leash and o e does not. But always in control of them.
Reviewing TH-cam vids on Quartzsite for upcoming trip. You made comment..."I won't talk about them"...ref "Big Market". Why not make comment? I take reviews with grain of salt, but good to hear honest good or bad reviews.
Jan 27th 2001 according to NOAA they got 6 inches. Although since I started coming here in 2019, I haven't seen any. One year they had snow in Tucson! Imagine snow on a cactus lol
Crazy prices out there ! -- Moved to Kentucky from Payson - couldn't afford Arizona anymore & your proving it even more with your prices. Our gas is $2.63 and a large 5 topping good pizza is $14.99 - not $20 - $22 for a 3 topping !!! --?-- Your like California now almost. - - - Cost of living here is 25 - 30% below the national average not above it like AZ. > Rent in Phoenix is putting people homeless daily ! --Terrible for elderly on fixed incomes - saw 70 & 80 year olds sleeping under overpases and behind dumpsters with rent raised hundreds / month after leases ran out. - - - Biden's America isn't for everyone ?
For a full-time RVer, Arizona is very reasonable place to camp in the winter. I myself stay away from Large cities like Phoenix. Fuel is a bit higher here than other places but also lower than some. It is much cheaper to stay here than other places like Florida.
@@Livingit1 -- Perhaps so - but don't rent a place ! -- I've been looking everywhere for a year and I'm too old to do the RV thing. -- Many have moved to the Philippines where rent can be had for as low as $50/mo for a private room. A small 1 br apartment for $80 - $100/mo. Food is half what it is here or less. One American recently got there and went & got a Big mac fry & coke for $3.50 ! Here where I am in Ky. it's.$8.47 !!! He said it was the same exact thing that was $13 in Calif. -?- Several live well there if your smart & frugal for $700 - $800/mo. on their SS checks - usually $900 - $1800/mo.
The LTVAs are $180 from September 15th through April 15th. The free 14 day BLM areas are Scadden wash, plamosa rd, dome rock, road runner and HI Jolly.
Hi I’m not sure how fast you’ll see this but another TH-cam r is in need of help She’s in Lapossa LTVA and needs someone to help her just lift up storage in back of her van to get to her medication, she really messed up her shoulder and can hardly move

I told Heather there that you gave them a plug. Thanks for the tip, ill keep an eye out for you down there
Extremely informative video. Thanks for doing the legwork. ❤
Thank you! Are you back in Quartzsite this year?
@@Livingit1 that’s our plan! 😁
Safe travels and see you when you get here.
Thanks for the tip on the new mail service! Their charges are much cheaper than the old mail service I was using here.
Yes definitely, I'm actually working there after talking to owners and getting more information.
Happy to be back!!! Ltva south starting to fill in. Come by The Spot and say hi
Finally have a chance to catch up on your videos now that we've landed in Texas for a bit 😊
Awsome and is a well deserved break.
I had that exact same avalanche and color it was always easy to find in a giant parking lot
It's been good to me. Makes a great desert beater. 231k on it and still going strong.
Great tour. I felt like i was i riding along too.
This Be our 1st year coming There From Texas Thank you on Video
Welcome, thanks for watching. I will continue to post informative videos about Quartzsite throughout the season. Safe travels!

It's behind Ken's discount Grocery near KB tools.
@@Livingit1 Ooooh ok, I thought it was across the way...does it have a sign or anything?
Yes it does.
Ok, thanks!@@Livingit1

What happened to the good old day's when they spread oil instead of water on the roads to keep the dust down. It sure did last a hell of a lot longer.
Well good news today they were chip sealing all 4 LTVAs roads
Yes, very good news, Thanks for the tour, Im a new sub and am looking forward to your future posts.

Good luck. We all have a dream hope yours comes true. ⛏️ (pickax for rock hounding haha)
Hope to be out that way soon, thanks for the update. (Greg in Tallahassee)
Safe travels
We r using Moon Mountain n ur price was correct. Great folks to deal with.
I think we sre going to sign up.
That’s a good looking bus!!
Yes it is!
great video. informative. 220k miles is not alot of miles on an avalanche. ive seen with with 350-400k miles running through auctions
That's what I've seen. I know the ride is very smooth. I just keep up the maintenance.
Good thing it's No Shave November! You look funny without your goat beard LOL
It was time to start fresh lol 😆
I was invited to stay at the clothing optional camp, couldnt get up the nerve to do it tho, lol.
Thanks for the tour - been thinking about heading back there but im on the other side of the country now 🤔
Safe travels
Moon Mountain Mail is for sure off to a good start. Folks should check them out. I hope you do a video on them...🙏

Love the skoolie ❤️
Thanks, get some more of build done while in Quartzsite.
Looks like fun.
Sir, there's several discount stores.. One is Kenny's discount store. Everything in the back store is omly a dollar. Then there's another discount grocery so ask someone where it is
I missed a few seasons due to the C, could not get across border, but will be coming out this year later in November
Welcome back
Great video! Our first trip out will be next year. Can't wait. How far out would you say your camp is from the entrance?
Approximately 3 miles. It's further back then most want to go. In my opinion, it's worth the drive!
Thanks for sharing
Wish I wuz there. Was in 20/21 for winter.
Hopefully you can make it again!
Say, lots of people mention the firewood place, but what do you get? Is it a two handed or one handed bundle, and for how much? Thanks for taking the time to show whats up.
I will check later and post in upcoming video. I believe it was between $25-35 last year for a banana box last year. The other place sold by small wheelbarrow for a similar amount.
When will the nights drop to low 40s? Anywhere to get showers? Best potable water prices?
Low 40's by the end of December, water depends on if you want reverse osmosis or just regular water. In small Containers about 25 cents a gallon gor RO. You can get showers at laundromat on main for $11 which is cheaper than the truckstops.
I use water I get from LaPosa south LTVA and run through my Berkey for drinking.
@@Livingit1 much appreciated
I heard that if you’re tent camping you have to be within a certain distance from the restrooms. Is this true?
Yes I believe it is 500ft if you don't have a black tank of 10 gals or more. But there are at least 4 in each of the LTVAs and plenty of room still.
Used to be Terrible Herbst back in the 70's.

Database will have length of stay fee calculated. Violators will be issued severe monetary penalty fines. Second offenders will be impounded and 3x penalty fine levied.
Sounds like a money grab. Tried a impact fee in Florida, it was over turned in Florida and all money's had to be refunded!
Hopefully it doesn't pass.
Bad move for Arizona
Question, im a truly dog lover but i like to know do everyone keep thier dogs on a leash. I hope and pray so
Good question, some do some don't. Most of the ones that don't keep their dogs under control. But there is always one.
My dogs are trained to stay in my campsite. One has to be walked on a leash and o e does not. But always in control of them.

Have had several negative experiences. But others have positive.
How are the police in quartsite? Honestly I'm an ex con drive an old truck and leery about police presence
I've never heard people having an issue with them.
I see they have a lot of RV sales could you make a video on used RV for sale
Not alot right now, but maybe during the show.
where do vancampers with tents go?
I believe the rules say within 500 ft of a Vault toilet. Which there are several within all 4 LTVAs
Overheard from a volunteer meeting: Next year the seasonal fee will go from $180 to $300.
Wow
Has it ever snowed in the Q ?
Jan 27th 2001 according to NOAA they got 6 inches. Although since I started coming here in 2019, I haven't seen any. One year they had snow in Tucson! Imagine snow on a cactus lol
