Just got home from having too much fun at Dead Horse Ranch SP. Arrived at noon on Sunday, got set up and settled in. Monday we rode my Can Am Spyder up to Sedona for a late breakfast. Sedona was jumping with crowds everywhere.
We ate at the HP cafe in downtown, it is the oldest restaurant in Sedona and the food is always awesome... best corned beef hash I have ever had. We then rode back through Cottonwood and up to Jerome. Went to the Gold King Mine and Ghost Town and had a blast exploring. If you ever get to Jerome do not miss it. Haunted Hamburger is great lunch stop with unbelievable views all the way to Mt Humphries outside of Flagstaff which was nicely snow capped. Jerome got a nice dusting of snow on Tuesday as well.
Wandered the streets of Cottonwood and then returned to camp around 3. The weather was supposed to be steady rain all day Tuesday so I put the bike back in its garage {aka our cargo trailer}. Not much rain fell but we enjoyed a quiet day reading and relaxing. Had a great fire all three nights and Tuesday morning as well.
The CG was completely full which considering what a nice campground it is was no surprise. if you are coming reservations are a must. It is a large CG with multiple loops with water and electric in all of the sites and there is a two lane dump station near the entrance. There are several large lagoons {ponds/lakes} suitable for fishing, kayaks etc., as well as a full on stable offering trail rides which we enjoyed on a prior visit.
Lots of snow at 6 to 7,000' as me made the long climb up from the Verde Valley and we are ooking forward to returning but as noted reservations are a must.
