Great BOONDOCKING campsite! Only 5 miles west of Winslow, Arizona. About 3.5 Miles North of I-40 at the Meteor City Rd. Exit. The dirt road that runs north from the I-40 exit is relatively flat. I drove to the property in a low 2 wheel drive car with no problem. So a large RV should have no problem getting to the camp. Rainfall is very minimal. 79 acres sitting at 4900 foot high desert elevation. Stargaze with only light from your campfire. Distant mountain views (West) towards Flagstaff. The property is completely natural/primitive with natural scrub and tumbleweeds. Beautiful shallow canyons run North to South. The property can be windy, so I just used my car as a windbreak. There are scatter rocks for a fire ring and sage scrub that burns good and hot on property, very little fire danger due to the terrain. One of the largest Meteors hit the Earth millions of years ago; only 12 miles from this primitive/ natural camp!! Yes there are pieces of that meteor, if you look real hard you might see them on property. If you need to wash clothes, take showers, purchase food and drink, get gas; the Navajo Blue Travel Plaza is just 12 miles West on I-40. Meteor Crater Exit is only 3 miles West down I-40 with Gas station. Rest Area is 2 miles West on I-40 also. The Two Guns exit is only 4 miles West on I-40 with some old trading post ruins and a river!
Meteor Crater National Landmark is literally 12 miles Southwest (as the Raven flies). Twin Arrows Casino is only a 16 minute drive from this camp site, West on I-40 (entertainment and great food). Petrified Forest National Park is 35 miles East on I-40. Walnut National Monument is 36 miles West. Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument is 46 miles West on I-40 then North on 89. There are several old Navajo and Indian Ruins and early 1900s settlement ruins within a 40 minute drive. God Speed, Have Fun and Be Careful!Pitch your tent or park your RV and boondock! 79 acres sitting at 4900 foot elevation. Distant mountain views (West) towards Flagstaff.
