As a photographer, I would have liked to spent several days camping & photographing this stunning desert lake. IMHO, it rivals Mono Lake in CA. It will have to wait until retirement, however—because cell signal is not strong enough here for working online.

10/30: Couldn't get in to the nearby "Death Valley RV Park" (in Beatty, not DV). I liked this place better anyway, more down-to-earth.

Vanderbilt Road, Beatty, NV, US

Bombo's Pond

Surprised to find this POI on Roadtrippers! Decided against boondocking here just because it was too hot and I needed to run the air conditioner. (Didn't take the time to drive by.)

Looped over through this quiet town to avoid (most of) Vegas.

KOA Campground Kingman

10/31: Campsites are too close together! But I needed (a) hookups for the air conditioner, and (b) a pull-though site so I didn't have to unhitch the tow car. All the other RV parks in Kingman were full, was so I was lucky to find a site here!

Mayflower County Park

11/1: Interim stop with hookups (because it's still too hot!) until I can get to my full-time winter boondocking spot—after it cools down and an air conditioner is no longer needed!

Climate change is tough on boondockers! It's too hot everywhere! :)
