Quartzsite Boondocking

After a month in Las Vegas, I decided to spend a couple of days boondocking north of Quartzsite on my way to Gold Canyon, Arizona. Although I enjoy the amenities of full hook-ups, occasionally, it is nice to park out in the desert away from civilization. It is the quiet tranquility and the ability to gaze at the millions of stars in the night sky that make it such a great experience.

At this time of the year the area is not very crowded which makes it very easy to get around and not have to wait in lines. Although the town normally sees two million visitors during the winter months, the locals I have talked to are concerned about how the pandemic will affect business this winter, particularly, with the Canadian border closed.
