A perfect location to camp and experience all the adventures the area has to offer. Ideal for anything from ATV & jeep trips to Crown King, to hunting in nearby public lands, to visiting the area's mining and native history, or just to spend some quality time in the Sonoran Desert. This private pad is large enough for a few RVs and all the toys. 4WD vehicles are recommended, especially during poor weather. Winters at this 2600 foot elevation can bring a few inches of snow. Summers put on the seasonal monsoon show, Spring and Fall are always enjoyable with cooler nights. There are the usual desert critters to beware of: bark scorpions, rattlesnakes of all kinds, mountain lions on the prowl, a some poisonous spiders. Other abundant wildlife is also present: foxes, skunks, javelina, bobcats, mule deer, ringtail cats, raccoons, coyotes, and many kinds of birds. You'll likely also see herds of wild burros and some cattle grazing nearby. Target practice is common in the area and even allowed at this site. There is a large stone firepit for guests to light campfires, firewood may be available but not guaranteed, bring your own.This 5-acre property currently has only one pad for guests to gather around the pad roughly 120 feet long by 100 feet or so. This is a residential area, please be respectful of occasional neighborhood traffic passing by, and enjoy the area's desert scenery, wildlife, and peace and quiet. A short walk up the road to Burro Pass offers all around scenic views, a reliable phone signal, and excellent sunrises and sunsets not to be missed.
