    I love camping in Quartzsite. I found a spot with beautiful mountain views great sunsets and sunrises and almost no one around. Minutes from amenities. Everything you need is right here for camping. Very convenient

    Mogollon Rim roads all still closed as of yesterday. We planned to head up there from Benson but had to divert to near Sedona. I assume it's still snowed in up there but who knows.

    Do you need a permit for any of these camp grounds ? Specifically the ones closest to the Grand Canyon?

    • @Campendium
      @Campendium  Před 3 lety

      While none of the campsites near the Grand Canyon mentioned in this video are currently known to require a permit, it is always best practice to check directly with the forest service/managing body to confirm this before arrival. Contact info and known permit status are noted on the Campendium review pages (linked above!) for each spot.

      Due to the large number of full time campers over staying and leaving trash near Flagstaff, a lot of areas closest to town that were open are now posted to create a buffer zone between city and forest service property.

      Hi Ed - that's a personal decision. Campendium's co-founders have been camping full-time for over 10 years without a gun and have never had a need for one. If you do decide to cary a gun, laws vary by state, so be sure to do your research!

    You can’t live in the forest here. Two years later, y’all came here during covid and trashed our wiild places and camp grounds. Burned the picnic tables and left your broken tents and chairs, dirty diapers, you name it. Not to mention cleaning out our grocery stores and not wearing masks while bringing your entire family in to shop. Please don’t feel the need to advertise our home for your pleasure.
