Quartzsite, Where & When ?

We'll be in Greasewood 1/20 and maybe some of us can connect up.

We leave for there Sat night stop along the way arrive on Sunday
Don't know yet where we will park/camp

Spent a few weeks there a couple years ago. Amazing experience! It is a GOTTA DO for sure.

Well, 2 weeks later and just a couple days before the "big tent" show and things are still waaaay down from years past. Plomosa Rd had 13 rigs parked that could bee seen from the road, as we drove past, including the host. Tyson Wash had a fair number, but still waaaay down for this time of year. Rice Ranch RV Park was less than ½ full, and that is right across from the big tent. It appears that the Boomers are passing Quartzsite by for different pastures.

Make sure you tilt the panels. I see a serious difference this time of year. (Q is the only time I tilt them)

CA Thanks for the tips!

BTW We'll be in Greasewood 1/20-23 and I'm really excited about this because it will be our first boondocking with the new solar! :C

Anyone else be around at that time? Of course in that area we'll have to put up with our neighbors gens! :( But it's a club rally and I'll just have to grin and bear it - not that I've ever run the gen in the past?

Thanks guys as my resource for the CG showed otherwise. But Rice Ranch is a familiar name.

BTW In the ancient past I called Holiday Palms CG (the CG adjacent to 88Shades) for a overnight stay. They absolutely would not accept us because of our indoor cat. Really? So I called 88Shades and I've used their facilities to change my oil and used the pressure washer. A good find for us and later learned that both CGs have the same owner?

Disclaimer: The present rig has full air suspension and leveling. I will not go under it for any reason even though the 88Shades oil change station has a 1' clearance. Several years ago a OR tech was killed in southern CA when he cut a air line. Safety first.

CA Traveler, WOW, what a great resource for us. Thank you for taking the time to post this. You posted an Underpass on Rt 10, can you easily get across there if you were staying at 88Shades. I wonder what the deal is with the campground across the street from the big tent. Is there any way to know the name of it so I could reserve a site at that location. Thanks for all your help

The CG across the street from the big tent (directly east across 95), is the Rice Ranch RV Park. They don't take reservations, nothing on their website anyway, but they have lots of space. Last year full hook ups were $33 and dry camping was $7 a night. the location is what works for us.
