This was a really unique landscape that you just can’t appreciate until you are in it yourself. The scenery here looks like something you might see on an alien planet.Īre the Views Worth It? Pictures never do these things justice. This was a shorter, just under 2 mile, hike to the hoodoos. OK, so it’s a stretch but I can’t get it out of my head Hoodoo, Voodoo, You Do… Hey, you do you but I don’t particularly like walking long distances in flip flops! We went down one ladder and that was it.ĭue to the sandy soil, you might think this is doable. Kinda, there was a lot of sandy terrain that was much like walking on a beach. Just be aware that the ground can get a bit warm during the warmer weather and their paws may not like that. Not all dogs in our party were willing to be carried up and down. But the rest of the trail was pretty easy for most dogs. The only point that was tough was when we reached the ladder. The trail was just under 4 miles through some pretty cool slot canyons.Īre the Views Worth It? Um, YES! How many places do you get to see some cool slot canyons? The trail did require a pass (per person and per pet) but it was easy to obtain. We weren’t lucky enough to win the lottery for the Wave so this was our next best option. To burn off some of those well worth it calories, we did two hikes. Talk about DELISH! That may just have to be a father’s day gift next month… Hiking Philip made us homemade pizzas using his new Portable Propane Pizza Oven. The battery on the other hand… Let’s just say Jeff is shopping for two new ones as we speak. Temps reached the high 80’s so the generator definitely got a bit of a workout but handled it like a trooper! We found a spot on the road back to the Old Paria Townsite that fit both of our rigs nicely and gave us a very pleasant view. Now, mind you, our rig is not ideally set up for boondocking but it was only a couple of days and we had a generator so, we gave it a shot! It’s a FirstĪfter the rally ended, we joined up with our favorite travel buddies, the Charming Millers, for a first time (for us) experience – Boondocking on BLM land! Oh, and a nice dog run area that was just enough for Rizzo to stretch her legs a bit and play with some doggie friends. The park also had a swimming pool (not heated), hot tub, club house and laundry facilities. Thank you YOUTUBE TV!Īdditional Amenities: Can we talk about the AMAZING bathrooms at this place? I felt like I was in a high end hotel! Great water pressure, plenty of hot water, benches, new tile and super clean! We also had excellent cell service but there were ZERO tv channels available. Wifi/Cell/TV: Free wifi is included and worked just fine. Space: This isn’t BLM land but there was enough space between units to stretch out and not feel like you were eating over your neighbor’s crap hose! Sewer: We weren’t going to have to be like Cousin Eddie and dump in the street because this place was full hook ups. Water: Water included and they warn you on check in if you don’t have a pressure regulator, it’s best to purchase one as their pressure is high! Power: Enough to run two AC’s in the midst of the heat! 50 amp. Site Surface: Nicely leveled gravel surface. Site Type: The site has both pull through and back in sites as well as some cabins. I’m not sure how long this park has been open but it couldn’t be long. The rally was held at Grand Plateau RV Resort. Rizzo was a bit wiped out after the booze crawl!
