TomH 2,902 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Hey all. I have been in contact with Bill and he had to change the area we are going to camp. He got stuck trying to get across the wash in his RV. It will be at a big camp spot on the RIGHT side of CASTLE HOT SPRINGS ROAD. It is just before the pavement ends.

OH good one....We could have shamed him. Did he stick the rear end? Or the sand? Is it washed out a lot? Tom 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wygold 11 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 (edited) Okay so right before N. Mine Road when the pavement ends on Castle Hot Springs?? Edited November 14, 2019 by wygold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TomH 2,902 Posted November 14, 2019 Author Share Posted November 14, 2019 This is zoomed in a bit. It is about 1/4 mile past the last house on the right. If you get to the dirt road, you went too far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is it washed out a lot? Tom I know! Too bad I forgot it He got it stuck again pulling it into the other spot too. He just doesn't know how to drive the thing yet, I guess...as the trail is no worse than it has ever been. He got it hung up on the tail roller both times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nugget Shooter 4,622 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 No air bags as they are rotted out so very little clearance. Dave idea on how to drive it was gun it to get across and tear it up lol. Not an option even for someone like me that does not know how to drive..... 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There are 3 ways to do things: 1) The right way 2) The wrong way 3) Dave's way. Which is usually the wrong way...but faster 1 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AaronBazor 53 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) We were out by Stanton when Mike Furness texted me about the new spot 👍. Maybe he's looking forward to potato salad Saturday afternoon. Thanks Mike! PS: Linda just made me get back on here to tell everyone about how I drove a Kia Sportage across the wash after taking it up the wash to the Vulture Bait claim. She said it was a hell of a ride! And I was a good driver Edited November 15, 2019 by AaronBazor Linda made me do it.... 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mn90403 987 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Anyone going to the 'old' spot has to pass the new one. I've seen others park there with clean, expensive RVs because they don't want to get them dirty! Does this still require the Land Trust permit be displayed?

BuddyK 7 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Where do you get a land trust permit from? Do gas stations have that? Pardon my ignorance - I'm from Canada and winging it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pardon my ignorance - I'm from Canada and winging it. You can buy and get the permit online, then just print it out, not sure how to get one in person or if that's possible on a Saturday, but there is a number you can call to find out. https://asld.secure.force.com/recreationalpermit/ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I should be out there for 4 or 5 hours on Saturday - I'm reading the manual of my metal detector just now 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AaronBazor 53 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Buddy, I bought mine online and received the 2 files, parking permit and recreational permit, in an email. I went to a local shipping store and they printed it out for me, cost $1 buck. Hope this helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
