After delaying our departure due to extreme cold and snow, we’re finally headed south to Albuquerque on January 17th. Our first night is at American RV Resort, just west of downtown Albuquerque. The park is about as expected, and suffers from highway noise from nearby I-40. From Albuquerque we’re headed to the KOA Journey in Holbrook. Some sites here have been upgraded to KOA Patio sites with privacy fences and pergolas. But, located just off of I-40, again this park suffers from constant road noise. Our final night on the road to Quartzsite is at Verde Ranch RV Resort in Camp Verde, AZ. This is a favorite park of ours with all the amenities of a nice RV resort. From Camp Verde we transit around Phoenix and make the relatively short trip over to Quartzsite.
Holbrook, AZ KOA Journey
As we did last year, we’re in Quartzsite to meet other members of the Montana Owners Group. With our arrival there are 25 rigs in the “Circling of the Montana’s”. The big RV show opens the day after our arrival and on Sunday we spend a few hours perusing the booths of RV suppliers from all of the US and touring some of the most recent floorplans in Montana and Brinkley 5th wheels. Flooding rains moved into the Quartzsite area, so outside activities were cancelled on Sunday evening and again on Monday. On Tuesday we pack up our muddy equipment and head towards Palm Springs where we’ll spend the next 8 nights.
February/March, Arizona and California
This will mark our first Spring Trip that includes stops in California. In addition to Palm Springs we’ll visit Temecula and San Diego. More from California!
