Gold Canyon (AZ)

Feb. 13, 2012 - Took a day to drive into Mesa to do some shopping.  We also stopped at the Mesa Ranger Station to get information on dispersed camping.  We would like to try setting up our RV on public land and spending time in the open wilderness areas.  We are also thinking of trading in our RV for a smaller van-type RV, so we looked at several RV lots to see what they had.  The inside space of the vans is definitely tighter!  But they still have a kitchen and bathroom area as well as a couch that folds into a bed and storage cupboards.  A van would allow us to get off the beaten path and onto the gravel roads leading into wilderness areas.  It would be much easier to drive and would get better gas mileage.  Something new to think about...
