For our next destination, we traveled north of Phoenix to Cave Creek Regional Park. We’ve stayed there before and really enjoy the openness and being close to hiking. As we were enjoying the area, we checked ahead for the weather in Winslow, Arizona. Starting in Flagstaff and all through the area was snow and very cold weather. I guess traveling in March at those altitudes can be tricky. So, on to the AllStays Camp and RV app to find a replacement. We decided to go back to Organ Pipe Cactus NM for another three nights before heading home. Check out the photos.

After Organ Pipe Cactus NM, we traveled to Patagonia State Park south of Tucson. This was the location of the Four Corners Airstream Rally. A beautiful state park on a reservoir and streams keeping it full. We met lots of new people, stayed safe, listened to great music, and hiked. There are some photos of the activities.

Next we Traveled to Catalina State Park, north east of Tucson. Another beautiful park but we were only able to book two nights. (All those retired people I guess…) We had beautiful weather and great hikes there too.

We left San Luis to attend a safely distanced rally in Patagonia Lake State Park in Arizona, south of Tucson in March. We had rain the night before we left but awoke to a beautiful morning. We decided to take the south route to Yucca Valley and then to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument before the rally.

Well, the weather changed as we approached the Palmdale area, rain, wind, dust, and traffic. Bummer! We arrived at the Yucca Valley Elks in a wind storm and found no one there, no electricity, and no water. The forecast was wind and 30 degrees! We decided to try 29 Palms and found a nice RV park for the night. Then off on a beautiful day to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. We decided to take the back roads to avoid Interstate 10 as much as possible. It worked! Beautiful drive and no traffic.

Organ Pipe Cactus is a beautiful area, great hikes, and a great campground, right on the Mexico border in the Sonoran Desert. We’ll be back! (Prophetic words)
