🌵 Ka-Hoon Campground Membership Program 🌵**
📍Deep in the New Mexico Desert | 🏕️ Respect. Freedom. Community.
At the end of last year, we quietly launched our **Ka-Hoon Campground Membership Program**—a long-term stay option requested by some of our amazing campers. Since then, we’ve welcomed a few dedicated members who stayed for nearly six months before heading off to chase their dreams in California.
This program was never about packing people in—it’s about building an intentional, respectful desert community. Let’s be honest: as much as we’d love to offer free stays, we do have expenses. And while this isn’t a get-rich venture for us, it is our home *and* our livelihood. Like anyone else, we just want to live simply and comfortably while protecting the land.
**What’s included in the membership?**
✅ Long-term stay opportunities
✅ Come and go as you please
✅ Set up your space your way
✅ No work exchange required
✅ Just one rule: **Respect**—for the land, yourself, and others
✅ No illegal substances, no chaos—just desert calm
We keep our numbers small on purpose, hoping to attract folks who share our values. If you’re someone looking for a safe, peaceful place to be yourself, you just might find your spot here on the mesa.

Surviving Desert Life: Wind, Sand, and Endless Skies – The Off-Grid Experience at Ka-Hoon Campground!
**Desert Life: When the Wind Gives You Exfoliation for Free**
Living in the New Mexico desert is an adventure—one that comes with a complimentary sandblasting treatment. If you’ve ever wondered what sand tastes like, don’t worry, the desert makes sure you find out. It sneaks into your ears, eyes, and somehow, despite all logic, through the tiniest cracks in your RV, tent, or even a fully sealed house. By morning, you wake up with a fine layer of desert dust decorating everything, no matter how well you thought you secured it.
Winter sand? Ice-cold and sharp as tiny knives. Summer sand? Hot enough to brand your feet if you step out barefoot. Yet, through it all, we wouldn’t trade this life for anything. The **skies stretch endlessly**, the **silence is pure**, and the **landscapes are breathtaking**.
Here at **Ka-Hoon Campground**, we embrace the quirks of desert life—wind, sand, and all. It’s a place where you can unplug, unwind, and be yourself, surrounded by the rugged beauty of New Mexico. Whether you want to **gather around the firepit**, **camp under the stars**, or just **enjoy the peace and quiet**, this is your space.
**Join the Adventure**
No judgment, no stress—just freedom and fresh (sometimes sandy) air. **Visit http://www.plateauhamedecolquhoun.com to learn more!**

Ka-Hoon Plateau hame de Colquhoun
Some may notice a few differences.. We are still Plateau Hame De Colquhoun, but we will be going by Ka-Hoon, which is how Colquhoun is pronounced.. You may even notice that the Art of tiny living page has been renamed. It will become Life with the Colquhoun page. (I screwed up and gave it the wrong name, and now I have to wait 30 days to change it.
We are doing this all as it’s easier to pronounce Ka-hoon and shorter. We no longer do the Tiny living stuff, so thereno reason to keep it. We will also be making changes to the website.
We’ve had so many people contact us asking us to do more lives. We aim at doing lives a few times a week here on Facebook on the “wrong named page” Ka-Hoon Campground and on the Plateau Hame De Colquhoun YouTube channel. We hope to add Tiktok soon.
Don’t forget we have the NM 2024 Nomad Gathering in the Desert coming up and have a few more exciting events that we’ll be releasing soon! So please stay tuned, like this post, and follow us!!

Dogs morning routine
It’s Monday already. We have a few things planned today if the weather permits.
Advocatus Diaboli is supposed to come over and rehearse. A few neighbors are supposed to come and work on a project, which can be done as long as it doesn’t get windy.
I’m still working on my crochet project. I was able to figure out a way to make 2 at once. I probably been done with 2 yesterday, but idk why I kept screwing up and had to keep restarting.

Repairing the Hut that hosts the compost toilet.
We had a nice warm, sunny, very little wind Saturday.
Which made an almost perfect day to put the roof on the hut. We had purchased the Hut on the market place, the builder had reporpused corgated tin. The tin had screw holes that leaked. Inside the hut is a compost toilet.
We had a camper give us some commercial refrigerator sealant tubes that we used to fill the holes.
After sealing the holes, we placed a sheet of osb over the tin.
While we worked, the dogs hung outside with us, did some sun bathing, and watched.
Brent is attaches the OSB, getting the roof ready for the next step.
The little solar panel attached to the hut is for a small charging station and runs the lights inside.
A neighbor had some extra rubber roofing that we sealed with the refrigerator sealant.
While putting the rubber roof, after putting the sealant on it, a gust of wind hit, and we found out that sealant gets stringy and goes all over.
We all ended up getting covered in the sealant…
But we did get it finished and headed into town for a shower.

Commissioned Project for Advocatus diaboli
It’s Saturday, and the temps are 25 outside, 48 inside.
I spent most of yesterday crocheting Advocatus Diaboli commissioned pieces, I finished up the black and purple stuffy.. Now I’m going to do a few small ones before finishing up 2 bigger ones.
Brent had spent the day helping a neighbor haul a few towers that the neighbor plans yo use to make a wind mill.
We had looked into wind turbines.. The issue is (from out understanding) that they are rated for 30 mph winds, but not a constant 30. We can get days of 30 mph with gusts of 50 or more. So we decided against doing it. We hope that it works for this neighbor. If it does, it may be something we do for ourselves.
We have had a few other neighbors try different wind turbines, but they didn’t last long. Fingers crossed 🤞 it works

Cold New Mexico morning at Plateau hame de Colquhoun
Woke up this morning, and it was cold! It was 27 outside, 39 inside. Usually, it isn’t that cold inside, but we didn’t turn on the heat last night, so probably why.
The heat is on now, and we are warming up. If you had seen the video yesterday, you saw that we got most of the Hut finished. We do need to seal the roof, but it has to be a non windy, warm day to seal.
I’m not sure yet what today’s plans are. I do know I’ll be working on Advocatus Diaboli merch, he had asked me to make. I’m enjoying doing it, but my hands aren’t. I’ve almost got the 3rd (including the example one) done. I really like the one I’m making now. It’s black and dark purple! It’s the second image, I still need to make the body and assemble.
