Older topic and I've been to the slabs this year first time in about 3 years. That said I'm over at Hot Springs now. The slabs seems to be dying the Chamber of Commerce allowed dumping and water for $10 but they have closed, the rest area I believe call two rivers that had free dumping and water is closed. Still residents out there and still unorganized so it would appear not much came from this Slab City Community Group. I personally think that's hot springs is much cleaner but I do somewhat miss the freedom the Carefree attitude at the slabs. Hot Springs has the town of Holtville not far from here about seven miles and you can take on water and dump your tanks are for a fee of $12. And on that note Hot Springs is not free either the LTVA charges $180 cash for the season. I imagine the slabs will continue to continue but it appears to be going downhill. I wish those folks well.
