      very unfair comment - best thing for you to do is for you go to google maps and research the areas your intersted in getting GPS "yourself". then you will have the accurate coordinates you need. how would i know what exact area you would want..... good grief !!

    Russ, if you go past the south cove area, and continue on about 15 miles---bingo, a landing area where river rafting trips end. There is plateaus where you can launch the drone for unbelievable shots. Also alot of dispersed camping in the area allowed, plus some old work camp areas from the great depression still there. This requires driving the dirt road to reach, but i did it 2 yrs ago with ease. I believe back in the 1800's, mormans used that area with some make shift cable bridge/ boat to cross the river. Thanks for sharing.

    I have a Joshua Tree in my home that I grew from seed. It is the second such Joshua Tree that I have grown from a seed. It goes outside for the summer months and than I bring it back in for winter and place it under grow lights. I understand they are related to the lily family.

    Nice trip Mr. Russ, I don't know if you went through this short scenic route through Kingman before but if you come from Route 66 from Oatman and make a left turn on Beale St. like going to Vegas, go pass the underpass I-40 and make a right turn on Ft Beale Dr. About 3/4 mile in, is Fort Beale Spring. Its a short walk from the parking lot to the spring. Also, a little further, is Johnston Spring at the hairpin turn. You have to use your buggy or 4x4 to get there though. There's also nice rock formations in this route. Taking this scenic route will take you to Stockton Hill Rd in front of Walmart ( Ft Beale Dr turns to Anson Smith Rd., left on North 6th St., Right on Sycamore Ave. This Ave. will cross Stockton Hill Rd. There's a spacious off roader parking area (35°13'34.62"N 114° 3'39.63"W ) at the hairpin turn. My wife and I took our buggy at this coordinate ( 35°13'52.47"N 114° 4'27.67"W) and had a lunch when we visited Kingman. You can see the whole city on top. Take care and be safe.

      @azmark1956 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Believe it or not, most that land is corp/private owned. many areas are selling fairly cheap--but, zero utilities. Pass the lake Meade boat ramp (south cove) and continue on for about 15 miles and you literally come upon a ramp along the Colorado where folks unload from rafting trips. And yes, there is wide open camping. Turns to dirt roads, but 2wd ok. Some areas have vault toilets.
