Life at an Off Grid BLM Camp near Yuma is an acquired taste. Details in Off-Grid-Yuma-BLM-Bob Davis Podcast 1157 .
<a href="https://thebobdavispodcasts.com/nomad-winter-escape-adventure-bob-davis-podcast-1156/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Firstly I have been traveling and camping at some spectacular National Forest campgrounds,</a>
<a href="https://thebobdavispodcasts.com/adventure-freedom-history-bob-davis-podcast-1155/">And National Parks.</a>
Even more at some amazing Bureau Of Land Management campgrounds which are well maintained and fantastic.
But the so called Long Term Visitor Areas are a different story.
<a href="https://youtu.be/Lp2FxGBevFo?si=HohENYzbncwKGI3b" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Certainly my listeners and subscribers have followed my tribulations through the LTVA experience in Quartzsite, Arizona.</a>
Above all Yuma isn&#8217;t much better.
By the same token the vibe in at Yuma is a little more chill than a hundred miles to the North in Quartzsite.
Basically I ran into some first time RV people; the other day and they expressed their displeasure with these LTVA&#8217;s run by the Department of The Interior.
Overall this is a great place to wait out the final few weeks of what we call cold weather down here.
In fact with temperatures in the 80&#8217;s as I write&#8230;
It won&#8217;t be long until I start spring travel into the higher elevations.
Undoubtedly first time RV people have their concerns.
It&#8217;s important to realize that these places have no power or water hook ups.
Nevertheless there is garbage service and fresh water.
In the same fashion bathrooms are provided.
Unfortunately sometimes they don&#8217;t work.
Another point overlooked is the BLM isn&#8217;t very good at fixing things&#8230;
Or cleaning things up.
In contrast to nearby military bases with five bars of 5G&#8230;the US Department of the Interior cannot seem to figure out how to get cell service into these LTVA&#8217;s.
On the other hand once you accept all those drawbacks life can be pleasant here.
Secondly one of the things about this environment is it tends to be more social.
All things considered I am changing my requirements when it comes to camping.
In fact these days I prefer more solitude and emptiness.
For that reason I will generally avoid these kinds of places.
For the time being though this is a good place to wait out the final few cold nights and plan for future travel.
On this occasion one takes the good with the bad.
