Oatman
In two weeks I will be traveling from Barstow to Kingman via Oatman. I have a 24' C (Born Free). I have heard that the road east out of Oatman is steep and has many bad turns. True? Suggestions?

Here's a video I did of Kingman to Oatman westbound, you may have to swing wide into the opposite lane to make some of the cruves. On the east end of Oatman is a good place to park your rig, show at the end of the video.
Coming in from the east there is a little veteran memorial at or about MM21, park your rig along the Hwy66 and walk in, its a short walk in.
Great video. I'd have turned around about the first time I had to drive on those edges to oblivion. I hate heights. NOT taking that road ever ever. Even sitting in my comfy couch watching the video make my tummy turn.
