old 66 between Kingman and Az. 95 is now Az. 10, a route over the mountain through Oatman to Needles.
As you turn west off of the interstate 40 on shinarump rd., onto old 66, you will pass through private land for a while, then climb into the pass, dropping by goldfield mine then into Oatman. I do not know of a road off of old 66 there that would work for boondocking with any trailer. You could unhitch at the first turnout over the pass, and go reconnoitre.
There are turnouts at the switchbacks just over the pass before Goldfield ( private) to dry camp. One turnout below Goldfield offers fabulous views, a pioneer cemetary.
You can find it in google maps. . Enjoy our public lands.
