    I noticed one comment about someone not understanding why people need shooting to enjoy the outdoors, others feel the same about ATV's , but all of us outdoors types love the outdoors. We must stick together and respect each other, or in the end we will all be loosers.

    Just camped at lake pleasant on cow creek rd these past 4 days, no problem with noise although a lot of burros AKA donkeys, like you said.
    In my Humble opinion, you camped in the wrong spot, if you drove past that staging area you stopped at and went overlanding a little bit, there are plenty of secluded spots to camp all around.
    I made it back there in a 2wd with A/T.
    Awesome videos! Keep them coming!

    Hi Slim Potatohead... I've been enjoying many of your videos this Fall as a full time RV'er since 2006, living in a Class C, wintering in NC. This video brought back memories of several years spent in Arizona. I love the Payson-Pine area. It also reminded me that I don't care for cactus. I could see my little dog chasing those chipmunks and ending up with cactus quills! Thanks for another interesting video.

  • @shoban5037
    @shoban5037 4 года назад

    We recently scouted the Cottonwood Canyon OHV area. It is not BLM three miles back. In fact, there is no BLM in that whole area. It is State Trust and it requires a $20 permit that is good for one year and only for 14 days maximum (all at once or accumulated). I don't know how they control that, we talked to some campers who said they hadn't seen a ranger in the whole two weeks that had been camped there.
    We have a 40' motorhome and have found free boondocking sites are very hard to come by in the greater Phoenix area (we stayed 14 days at Apache Trail Boondock). However, for cars and vans there is a BLM area just outside Apache Junction on Hackamore Rd. It is a very rough, long road but there are too many areas to count that cars and trucks can get into just fine, with fabulous views. I highly recommend this for those kinds of campers as it would certainly lessen the impact on the more popular boondock sites.

    I'm really enjoying your videos. Like you said in a previous video your pronunciation of the cacti is strange. Saguaro is sa-wa-ro. The cactus impaling your shoes is a Cholla, pronounced choy-ya. The chollas can be dangerous as they throw their spiny pods outward to propagate more cholla. But it really doesn't matter since I know you're trying. Keep the videos coming. Thanks, again.

    • @kleenmary7060

    If your ever in Arizona again try the area between Pinetop and Greer Arizona. Some Reservation land ,but great for camping(get reservation permit to camp at local pintop area casino.) The summers are awesome . Winters they get snow. There are areas where allot of folks camp near small man made lakes,but you can find plenty of areas to camp alone. The sound of pine trees blowing in the wind ....love it.

    Another great video! I am one of those who think ATVs are a menace to the wilderness. We own 4. BUT, for us they are transportation only. We own property on the BC/Yukon border and they are how we get in and out. We use them to haul in our supplies, and they rarely ever get over 15km/hour on the trail. They are a tool and that's it. They also are constantly breaking down. Hence why we have 4. At our home, we are also off in the boonies and the weekend warriors rip up and down our dead end dirt road, or up and down the KVR trail in the valley below us. Not conducent to my peace and tranquility. At least they all leave at the end of the day and I can sit on the deck and enjoy the coyotes, loons and stars . Thanks for sharing.-Sue

      Hi Mary, I'm in high winds quite a bit. Have a look at my "Desert and the Artist" video at ruclips.net/user/edit?o=U&video_id=3ANx0DqtCrk. Just over a minute into the video is a wind storm as an example. Not the worst, but gives you an idea how it holds up. Thanks!

      Hi Scott, my best sources are fellow campers. A great way to meet people is ask them about their favorite places to camp. Thanks!

    Enjoying your videos. Do you make a distinction between boondocking and camping? Are there less services with boondocking?

    • @SlimPotatohead
      @SlimPotatohead  7 лет назад +1

      Thanks. Boondocking is more a catchphrase than a truly defined camping genre. To me it means camping in nature on free land, usually with no services at all. Some however think parking their $200,000 RV in a Walmart is also Boondocking. Go figure. I hope to do a video of the philosophy of it at some point.

      Watch for weather. Cloudy this week may mean muddy. Buckeye has canceled camping however not currently enforced except picnic areas. Slim
