Quartzsite Day Trips 2019

By Bruce D. Clark

New for 2019 - more sites for mineral collecting and dry washing. Information for bird viewing along the lower Colorado River. Every winter hundreds of thousands of people flock to Quartzsite's desert with their RVs. The BLM has thousands of acres in the surrounding desert where RVers camp at little or no cost. As a result, Quartzsite remains one of the most popular winter-season RVing areas in the world. From your secluded camping area, gaze out across wide open spaces sprinkled with RVs and watch breathtaking sunsets. The RV and Gem shows are world famous and attract people from across the US. Others simply flock there to beat the winter cold and to enjoy the solitude. Seasonal vendors are the biggest business in town. You can find anything exploring block after block of vending areas. Sooner or later you will want to explore the desert around you. You need a guide. Service plummets a few miles from town. You need some sort of directions. Many worthwhile things to see and enjoy await you. Hike in solitude to scenic views or search for an abandoned Spanish silver mine and gems. Look for wild burros, Desert Bighorn, petroglyphs, and more. Most of all enjoy the peaceful, wide open vistas the desert offers. Every summer the winter visitors leave and the town again becomes a barren gas stop in the desert. Take home a story or two.
