OFF-ROAD FUN ON ARIZONA’S WEST COAST

The deserts in Mohave, La Paz, and Yuma Counties (Arizona’s “West Coast”) are the canvas for a myriad of recreational activities. The popularity of Off-Highway travel and hiking, have exploded in recent years. The creation of the Arizona Peace Trail, Inc., Quartzsite Off-Road, and local clubs have provided direction and focus for off-road fun and safety.

ARIZONA PEACE TRAIL

The Arizona Peace Trail is a 675-mile ultimate off-road adventure. It is a loop route through Mohave, La Paz, and Yuma Counties; currently the longest off-road trail in Arizona. There are 34 trail segments which are detailed in the “Arizona Peace Trail Atlas.” A digital Global Positioning route map is available for free download at: www.arizonapeacetrail.org.

The Arizona Peace Trail was first conceived by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD). In July 2013, the two agencies discussed the creation a connector trail between Bullhead City, AZ in the North and Yuma, AZ in the South. The vision was to create designated desert trails for public use; and, stimulate tourism.

In 2013, The Bouse Ghost Riders club under the direction of president, JC Sanders, brought land managers from federal, state, county, and city agencies, private landowners and OHV, enthusiasts together to develop the trail. By January 2014, 14 different OHV clubs with the cooperation of BLM, AZGFD, Yuma County, La Paz County, and Mohave County formed the Arizona Peace Trail, Inc., which gained non-profit status in July 2015.

QUARTZSITE OFF-ROAD

There are over one thousand miles of off-road trails in the Quartzsite area. Quartzsite Off-Road is a non-profit under the aegis of The Quartzsite Improvement Association, founded to promote safety, off-road information, and tourism. The founder and Administrator, Mark Goldberg, is a Quartzsite resident.

In 2016, the “Quartzsite Off-Road Atlas” was created to provide a guide to the 1000’s of miles of area trails with topographic maps, routes, points-of-interest, laws, safety recommendations, and other information. Quartzsite Off-Road has no paid employees, and all proceeds from the sale of the Atlas are used for off-road safety and promotion; and, support for local non-profit organizations.

Quartzsite Off-Road has a website, www.quartzsiteoffroad.com, and Facebook sites, “Quartzsite Off-Road,” and “Quartzsite Off-Road Buy Sell and Trade.” The Atlas is available on-line, and in local stores. Off-road “Meet and Greet” informational meetings are held on the first Wednesday at QIA , November thru March, in conjunction with The Arizona Sunriders OHV ����� | M��� G������� Club which has also been instrumental in QuartzsiteVisitorGuide.com promoting OHV trails, safety, and fun.

Happy Trails to you!

Tyson’s Well Stage Station Museum is operated by the Quartzsite Historical Society.

TYSON’S WELL The original adobe stage station STAGE was built in 1866 by Charley Tyson at its present location. It was an important way station on the CaliforniaSTATION Arizona line because of excellent water and grass for the horses. Miners and MUSEUM freighters, hauling mining equipment and

military supplies from the river port at Ehrenberg, to the Territorial Capital at Prescott, also stopped here. Accommodations were primitive at best.

The Quartzsite Historical Society opened Tyson’s Well Museum in February 1980, after extensive restoration work. Artifacts were gathered from interested citizens, as well as photographs and old mining equipment and placed inside and outside the building. The dirt floor in one of the rooms was maintained for authenticity. The ceiling of the main room consists of saguaro ribs, and the original fireplace is still in use during the winter.

Outside in the yard is the original assay shack from the Marquita Mine, which offers a peek into the everyday life of the miners. Also, in the yard is the skeleton of the famous 47-Armed Saguaro from US 60 roadside stop west of town. The handiwork of Walter Barrett is a little village of cement and stone houses built during his retirement and donated to the museum.

Parking is in the back. Free Admission to Museum. Donations are accepted.

Winter Hours: November-March Wednesday - Sunday 10am - 4pm

The museum is located at 161 W Main St., next to Silly Al’s Pizza.

Arizona’s adventure with camels began in 1855 when Jefferson Davis, then Secretary of War and later President of the Confederacy, was sold on the idea of importing camels to build and travel on a wagon road through the Southwest. A buyer was dispatched to the Middle East where he bought 33 camels, then loaded them on a ship modified to accommodate their bulk and sailed to Indianola, Texas. Another batch of 44 of the beasts followed. Authorities sent to the Middle East for men who spoke camel, and that’s where Hadji Ali comes into the story. The famed camel driver was born Philip Tedro, a Greek born in Syria. He converted to Islam and made a pilgrimage to Mecca, hence his first name, Hadji Ali.

HI JOLLY NATIONAL MONUMENT

He and another camel driver, Yiorgos Caralambo (who came to be called Greek George) were hired to teach the soldiers how to deal with the animals.

Soldiers couldn’t pronounce Hadji Ali, and he became known as Hi Jolly. The camels were a great success. They could carry two or three times as much as Army mules. They could go without water for much longer than could horses or mules, and most of the desert forage was fine with them.

But the Civil War intervened, Jefferson Davis changed jobs, and without his support the project was abandoned. Some of the camels were sold; others escaped into the wild. Hi Jolly bought two of them and operated a freight route between the Colorado River and the mining towns of eastern Arizona for two years.

14

In 1880, he became a U.S. citizen, started calling himself Philip Tedro and married Gertrudis Serna of Tucson. When he retired, he moved to Quartzsite and prospected around the region using a mule.

He died in 1902. The camels thrived for a while, but eventually died out. However, as late as the 1930s and 1940s there were unsubstantiated reports of camels spotted in the wild. One story was that of the Red Camel, which roamed the desert with a headless human skeleton on its back.

The monument was placed on the national register in 2011. Entrance to Hi Jolly Monument is off N. Kofa, 1 block north of West Main Street.

Quartzsite has over 60 RV Parks to choose from. Also, the La Posa Long Term Visitor Area (LTVA) was created in 1983 to fulfill the needs of winter visitors and to protect the local desert ecosystem from overuse. The campground is approximately 11,400 acres in size, flat landscape, sparsely vegetated with plants such as creosote bushes, palo verde trees, ironwood trees, mesquite trees and various species of cacti. La Posa LTVA offers solitude in a unique desert landscape and a variety of recreational opportunities such as hiking, wildlife viewing and rockhounding.

CAMPING IN QUARTZSITE

Whether you’re planning a single visit or coming back multiple times a year, enjoy the convenience of purchasing a pass before you arrive to cover recreation-related fees at Bureau of Land Management sites. Learn more about site-specific digital pass options at the Yuma Field Office and buy your pass.

16

The LTVA long term permit ($180) allows use of Bureau of Land Management designated LTVAs continuously from September 15th to April 15th (a total of 7 months), or for any length of time between those two dates. The LTVA short-visit permit ($40) allows use of Bureau of Land Management designated LTVAs for any 14 consecutive day period from September 15th to April 15th, which begins on the day the permit receipt is exchanged for the official permit and decal. The short-visit permit may be renewed an unlimited number of times for the cost of the permit. LTVA permits are valid at all of the Bureau of Land Management LTVAs. Visitors must pay daily fees or purchase annual permits at the Yuma Field Office, on site, or online at https://www. recreation.gov/sitepass.

Around Quartzsite

THERE IS A LOT OF HISTORY in this area, from the pioneers and settlers who came here and settled into the town that is now Quartzsite; to prospectors and ranchers, whose decedents still live in the town. Many of the old buildings in town are on private property and aren’t accessible due to their deteriorated conditions, but you can still see them from the roads.

Some places are open to the public; many are accessible by driving and hiking.

TYSON’S WELL STAGE STATION MUSEUM Housed in Charles Tyson’s restored former stage stop, this museum displays mining equipment and houses the old assay office from the Mariquita Mine. The museum also exhibits photographs and personal possessions of some of Quartzsite’s most colorful residents. It is located next to Silly Al’s Pizza on Main Street. A restored stagecoach station operated by the Quartzsite Historical Society. Exhibits relate Quartzsite, its citizens, and locals mines. Collections date from the 1860s and include artifacts, mining equipment, a miniature village, and photographs and personal papers.

The Quartzsite Historical Society opened Tyson’s Well Museum in February 1980, after extensive restoration work. The original structurally sound walls were retained and others were rebuilt. A shell of stabilized adobe brick was built around the original walls to protect them. Artifacts were gathered from interested citizens, as well as photographs and old mining equipment. When the building was finished, these articles were placed inside as well as outside the building. The dirt floor in one of the rooms was maintained for authenticity. The ceiling of the main room consists of saguaro ribs, and the original fireplace is still in use dur-

ing the winter. Outside in the yard is the original assay shack from the Mariquita Mine, which offers a peek into the everyday life of the miners. Also, in the yard is the handiwork of Walter Barrett, a little village of cement and stone houses built during his retirement and donated to the museum. Just to the west of the Museum are the ruins of the Oasis Hotel, which is our next restoration project, with fundraising currently underway.

See: www.quartzsitemuseum.org/ CELIA’S RAINBOW GARDENS Located at the north end of Quartzsite Town Park on Plymouth Rd. This 20 acre section is a beautiful nature trail with several special areas along the trails.

It includes a miniature pioneer village, a mining display, rock and gem pavilion, veterans’ area, and much more.

It’s a work in progress started by Paul & Joanne Winer, the parents of Celia Anne Winer, an 8-year old who died in 1994.

The volunteer project has become one of the most visited parts of the area. Be sure to take your camera to capture your own memories of the flora and fauna while walking the trails.

THE GREAT TREE Quartzsite’s Desert Survivor was dedicated as part of Arizona’s Centennial, Witness Tree, verified to have witnessed Arizona’s statehood from February 14, 1912, to February 14, 2012. This Ironwood tree is 1,050 years old. The Trail head is just north of County Court on N. Plymouth.

It has witnessed the ages from the same location and recently in its history has become accustomed to the yearly winter population boom of Quartzsite, located along Interstate 10 next to the Arizona/California border.

BOUSE FISHERMAN The Bouse Fisherman is an Intaglio also known as a geoglyph or earth figure. These very large earth figures were created many years ago by American Indians. The fisherman was first spotted in 1932 on the desert floor when George Palmer, a pilot, saw an enormous human figure with outstretched hands. In 1984, the Colorado River Indian Tribes sponsored a flight which led to a second discovery of the Bouse Fisherman.

Bouse residents and others collected money and installed posts and a cable fence around the site. A bronze plaque was set into a stone pillar to commemorate the site hoping for preservation for all.

To get there - North out of Quartzsite on Highway 95 for 5.4 miles, then turn right on Plomosa Road. 6 miles up the road look for fences on your left. 6 miles up the road look for fences on your left. Inside the farthest fence you will find the Rock Alignment and 1.3 miles farther up the road you come to a second “scenic view parking” sign. Park and follow path up the hill to see the Intaglios.

KOFA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE For 57 miles, US 95 cuts through the desert of Southwest Arizona - quite flat, perfectly straight and aligned exactly northsouth, and interrupted only by the small town of Quartzsite. In the mild seasons of winter and early spring, much traffic uses the road, bringing sun seekers from all over the US to Yuma and on into Mexico, but few travel to this region in summer, when temperatures of over 120o are not uncommon.

Rain falls on only a few occasions each year - the summer thunderstorms that affect the higher areas of Arizona rarely extend this far. South of Interstate 10, US 95 is bordered by the Yuma Proving Ground to the west and the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge to the east - a protected area 25 x 40 miles in extent with no paved roads or facilities of any kind. The refuge is an excellent place for viewing desert plants and wildlife, rock climbing, exploring old mines, or just camping in remote wilderness.

PETROGLYPHS AND GRINDING HOLES There is Tyson Wash, and there is an East side that is just a small distance to the south of Quartzsite, and you are able to see some ordinary petroglyphs and PALM CANYON An area of rugged beauty, Palm Canyon grinding holes for Indians.

Refuge for approximately 7 miles on the dirt road until it ends.

DRIPPING SPRINGS There are hundred of Petroglyphs here.

You will also find the remains of an old stone cabin and an arrastre. Look along the base of the cliff to the left of the stone cabin for the cave where the spring originates. Once you’ve found it, listen and you will hear it dripping from the cave roof, forming a year round pool of water. A path takes off to the left of the cave, following the edge of the cliff where more petroglyphs can be seen.

Dripping springs is one mile down the road from Dos Picachos Mine. The road is steep and rutted. This is a trip for a 4wheeled drive vehicle.

CIBOLA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Cibola National Wildlife Refuge is located in the flood plain of the lower Colorado River and surrounded by a fringe of desert ridges and washes. The refuge encompasses both the historic Colorado River channel as well as a channelized portion constructed in the late 1960’s. Along with these main water bodies, several important backwaters are home to many wildlife species that reside in this portion of the Sonoran Desert. Because of the river’s life sustaining water, wildlife here survives in an environment that reaches 120 degrees in the summer and receives an average of only 2 inches of rain per year. We invite you to visit and enjoy the many wildlife-oriented activities the refuge has to offer and enjoy the scenic beauty of this oasis in the desert.

Getting There from Blythe, CA: Drive approximately 3 miles west on I-10 to Neighbors Boulevard/78 exit. Travel south on Neighbors for 12 miles to the Cibola Bridge. After crossing the bridge, continue south for 3.5 miles to headquarters.

AHAKHAV PRESERVE The ‘Ahakhav Tribal Preserve was established in 1995 and currently consists of 1,253 acres of wilderness area and a 3.5 acre park. The preserve is centered around a reconstructed Colorado River backwater, which offers a variety of activities including fishing, canoeing, birding, and swimming. The preserve also maintains a 4.6 mile fitness trail as well as playground and picnic facilities located in the park. The preserve serves many purposes.

One is to provide recreational and learning opportunities to the surrounding community as well as visitors. The other is to serve as a revegetation area for endangered and threatened plants and animals native to the Lower Colorado River Basin. The Lower Colorado is an area that faces many problems, from damming that causes changes in natural stream flow, to a variety of invasive species. The preserve is an ongoing project to study methods of revegetation and restoration that may be used though out the area. For more information, please visit www.crit-nsn.gov

May it serve as a constant reminder of our past so that Americans in the future will never again be denied their Constitutional rights and may the remembrance of that experience serve to advance the evolution of the human spirit.

POSTON MONUMENT This Memorial Monument marks the site of the Poston War Relocation Center where 17,867 persons of Japanese ancestry, the majority of whom were United States citizens were interned during World War II from May 1942 to November 1945. All persons of Japanese descent living on west coast farms, businesses, towns, cities, and states were forcibly evacuated by the United States military on the grounds that they posed a threat to (he national security. This massive relocation was authorized by Executive Order 9066, signed

by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942. This Memorial is dedicated to all those men, women and children who suffered countless hardships and indignities

IMPERIAL WILDLIFE REFUGE 58 miles south of Quartzsite on U.S. 95. Turn right on Martinez Lake Road and drive 10 miles to Red Cloud Mine Road. Follow the brown refuge signs about 3.5 miles to the visitor center. Free. 928-783-3371,www.fws. gov/refuge/imperial.

Painted Desert Trail makes a 1.3-mile loop, following a wash, crossing a ridge and tracing another sandy wash back to the trailhead. It’s a lavishly fractured terrain, weaving among colorful mounds that look like petrified sand dunes. The walking is easy with just a short climb to the ridgeline where I soak in fine views, a mosaic of desert patterns and the wet knife of the river carving a verdant slice in the distance.

ALAMO LAKE 38 miles north of Wenden, Alamo Lake offers excellent bass, bluegill and catfish. The Arizona State Park can be accessed by a paved road from Highway 60 at the Wenden turn-off to the north on Alamo Lake Road.

Owing to its remoteness the park is often considered one of the “best kept secrets” of the state park system.

Alamo Lake State Park features camping facilities and attracts wildlife enthusiasts, as the park is home to numerous wildlife species including the bald eagle. The park’s remoteness and distance from cities also makes it a destination for stargazing.

EXPLORE QUARTZSITE

Enjoy the spirit of the old west while viewing the many shades of red and blue painted puffy clouds overlooking the silhouetted purple mountains surrounding Quartzsite. This vivid picture of the Sonoran Desert’s typical sunrise or sunset is but one of the many enjoyable features of your voyage around and through Quartzsite, Arizona.

Quartzsite has long been recognized for its unique geological treasure-trove of gems, minerals, and precious metals. It is most often referred to as the The Rock Capital of the World. For more than 50 years, vendors congregate here for the annual Quartzsite Rock and Gem Shows where wholesale and retail dealers from around the world buy, sell, trade, or barter for the most rare and valuable commodity.

Winter visitors escaping cabin fever are attracted by the warm winter days and nights and the affordability of wintering in western Arizona. RV travelers can choose from dry-camping at one of many Bureau of Land Management (BLM) 14-day or long term camping areas, or stay at one of over 60 RV parks having full utility hookups. Visitors will enjoy the out-of-doors attractions of the many swap meets, arts and crafts shows, or the surrounding day trips into Mexico, Lake Havasu City, Grand Canyon, or even Disneyland.

Additional activities include gold mining, hiking, classic car shows, and classes in arts and crafts.

Night time entertainment includes the typical table games, several Bingo parlors, or the many musical jam sessions held at most RV parks. The QIA (Quartzsite Improvement Association) hosts numerous night time live entertainment shows. Mild winter nights allow visitors to sit around a campfire and listen to the tall tales of some would-be or never-was cowboy, lamenting of his lost youth while steaks and hamburgers grill over the campfire.

Pioneers, settlers, and prospectors have been riding the trails around Quartzsite for more than 200 years. But now, they have a brand new steed; one with a whole herd full of horsepower. The OHV in all of its forms is now able to transport riders in relative comfort. Enjoy your visit to Quartzsite, Arizona. Additional information is available at www.QuartzsiteAZ.org or Quartzsite Area Chamber of Commerce & Tourism.

VENDING IN QUARTZSITE

The winter months vending season is a very busy time of year for the Town of Quartzsite. In fact, this is the peak season for the Town’s local businesses, vendors, visitors, off-roading, and shoppers alike. With all the hustle and bustle going on all over Town, we have a few tips and pointers to help with your success!

If you plan on vending within Town limits, there are several requirements that must be met. The Town requires every vendor to fill out an application packet which can be found on the Town’s website, at Town Hall. The packet contains an application, state required licensing eligibility, proper identification, and an AZ tax transaction number.

If you are a food vendor, handler, or selling any food or beverage item, you will have a few more requirements which include: a Fire Inspection by the local fire department and a Health permit by La Paz County Health Department. Please contact each agency directly.

You will want to start by contacting a local show owner or manager for a show dealer application and space rental for specific site details. Next, complete your Town of Quartzsite vendor application paperwork. And remember each show location is independently owned and operated and must be contacted individually.

The Town strives to make this process as efficient and easy for you as possible. We work with each of the show locations, owners, and managers toward the common goal for making Quartzsite a friendly, inviting place for all to enjoy! We suggest having all paperwork completed prior to your arrival into Town – this will save you a tremendous amount of time.

If you have any questions, please visit the Town’s website at www.QuartzsiteAZ.org or call us at 928-927-4333.

We hope you enjoy your stay with us and come back time and time again!
