    The amazing thing about Quartzite is you can park at one of several RV Parks with Hook-ups or Park on the southern side of the freeway on Federal Land with no hook ups but for very little money. The last time I checked its was $16.00 for a permit from the Ranger. The guy who knows more about this is Ken Zitter.

    Quartzsite is a amazing little town in January February. Hookup camp sites are available in town but at a premium this time of year however you can dry camp in the desert with access to water and sewer dump for $40 for two weeks. Ive left Quartzsite now however had four great days there. If you are in the area you definetly want to check it out.

    I am heading to Quartzsite tomorrow morning if any Bus Nuts are in town. I will be camping with the Wanderlodge folks at La Posa South.

    I am curious. For years I've read about this place and was excited about finally getting through there. Last year as I drove through Quartzite on the Interstate it looked like a shantytown. Never even got off drove right on by. I bet I'm not the only one who has had this reaction.

    Now I assume the town itself is not the draw but rather the cheep boondocking?

    Correct, the cheap boondocking is the main draw.
    Here's a bunch of info for those that are not familiar with the place.

    I bet more than a few people r both curious and reluctant to pull off into the desert. In my beater absolutely but is it ok for a 54,000 lb bus? Post some decent photographs.

    Thanks Joe. Would u venture out there with yours?

    Joe C,
    I definitely would go out there, just being careful where I go. Lots of big coaches go out there.
    But I'm restricted from going, my wife abhors the idea of such a place. Thus we don't go.
