Anza Borrego and SoCal — 4 Comments

  1. We always stop at Borrego Springs on our “Summer-In-The-Winter” trip (fleeing the gray winter skies of Portland). We love staying at Palm Canyon campground, but have to move to an RV park for the weekends (hate making advance reservations).

    I looked it up: there are one million people living over the hill in San Diego County. Unlike Oregon in the winter, the residents go camping on the weekends! Over the years, we have learned to find alternate places to stay on weekends, until we head into Southern Arizona and away from the huge population of Southern California.

    In Tehachapi, did you stay at Mountain Valley RV Park? We love staying there as it is a mile from the freeway. We also enjoy watching the gliders taking off and landing on the adjoining airstrip.

    I am envious of your four wheel drive motorhome and jeep. I have never had a need for four wheel drive, until we started spending the winters in the Southwest desert areas. I will just have to settle for vicarious exploring, reading your posts. Thanks, Greg!

    • Hey William,
      yes indeed, we do (always) stay at Mountain Valley RV Park. Spacious, quiet, plenty of space between sites (plus the trees). Also, we checked with them a while back, and even if they’re full, we can always dry-camp over in the storage area; so we never make reservations there.
      We have always avoided the gigantic population bulge in SoCal… after our experience at AB, we’re even more motivated to do so.

  2. There’s a beautiful place in B.S. called The Springs at Borrego. Very luxurious- treat yourselves someday. Thanks for the newsletter- the Ranger part is interesting.

  3. Love to hear about your adventures! Keep on trekking. Sold our RV so it is wonderful to know you are still enjoying.
