Quartzsite LTVA

It's Day #6 on our desert camp this year south of Quartzsite and it's great. Only about 8 to 9 rigs out here early. They days are a mite warm but the evenings are perfect. Lightening to the south, east, and west of us but just perfect over us. We can watch the lightening around us, but it leaves us alone. We can walk out away from the rig and have a 360 degree view of the desert and surrounding mountains If you're not here you are missing out.

    It is still a bit warm at the LTVA for me this time of year, but will be there in November for the winter.

    Kevin,
    How's the cell/data service out there this time of year? No matter which carrier I've been with, I always had service there at La Posa South LTVA near the dump station. I can't believe carriers cover that area year around when so few are there.

    (We always a grab a spot within sight of the dump station and use it when there's no line. I don't suppose that's a problem right now.)

    Wow you must have hit a low spot in the temperature. But ramping back up to 100F+ for the summer is a mite to much for us. Hence when passing through in the summer we always have power.

    And always close to Silly Al's.
