Time to say a temporary 'see ya later' to our new found friends, and make some headway east. We like to stop before it gets dark, so we chose Saddle Mountain because of the reviews. I was really glad I read more reviews before we arrived because someone suggested a better entry for larger rigs. I can't believe the spot we found! This is absolutely my new favorite place! Why? Because of the view, the ease of entry, and the ground is not dirty/dusty/yucky!
There is supposed to be Saddle Mountain Petroglyphs somewhere nearby, but after riding our bikes on a very rocky 5-mile terrain, we didn't find it. It was getting dark anyway, so we headed home. Maybe tomorrow or next time. Critters: Most days, we have cameras set out at night to watch for animals. Last night we are pretty sure we caught one of the Arizona Ringtails on our camera video! It wasn't a great video because it was too close, then went by again in the distance, but all the features of this animal matches the ringtail exactly! We are very exited about this even though it wasn't a great video of it! Details: Saddle Mountain BLM Dispersed: (33.460627, -113.061973) * Note: If you are planning your stay with a medium-large rig, you'd do better by entering at GPS location 33.464515, -113.062337. There was a little dip here, but not bad. The roads are VERY good for dispersed camping, and the sites are huge. If you go to the other place listed in Campendium, you will have a very bad, rocky road with smaller sites.
