Camp and a movie Sunday April 16th. Sit under the stars and watch part 3 and 4 of the Hunger Games! This is a private event and only open to campers. To attend book your campsite through the website using one of the listed platforms.
Last night we sat outside here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun with a few friends and enjoyed the stars and watching The Hunger Games .
Come join us at the Nomad Gathering in the Desert and watch the movie Off the Map and bonfire on Friday May 19th movie will show after the Talent Show!
Saturday May 20th will be BINGO, live music and bonfire.
Now we are back home and settled after a weekend of camping we are back to getting ready for the Nomad Gathering in the Desert on weekend of May 19th.
During the Nomad Gathering we’ll be having a Talent show, an outdoor movie “Off the Maps”, live music by Jer Killinger Singer/Songwriter , J5th & the 77 Riders , and BINGO!
One of the things we heard a lot before opening up for camping is why would someone pay when they can go to BLM land for free. We had questioned the same thing, we had heard stories about camping at some BLM lands, but never had experienced it ourselves.
After this last weekend we now understand why some rather pay. Our place isn’t much different than BLM, you can hike for miles, beautiful views, sunsets, sunrises over the mountains, very little light pollution which makes sky viewing beyond your beliefs. But we also offer security, respect, not going to walk through your campsite without permission. We offer a few amenities, a toilet and hopefully the shower soon. You can socialize or stay to yourself, you can have food delivered to your site (the menu can be found on the website), we also have the new miniature Dusty Nail General Store which offers home made wash cloths, art prints and originals, build your own charm jewelry, “I survived music in the desert” t shirts, schedule a henna tattoo, tours of the mesa for those that might not be able to hike it, oh and you get a cell signal. These few things are what makes the difference and we feel security, respect and cell signal is the main reason. These are things we lacked while camping on BLM land this last weekend. We had to make our own security..
We like to hear from you, are there more we can offer that would make your stay more comfortable?
We got the Dusty Nail build pretty much finished. Now we start cleaning and setting up the inside.
We are excited to have the new stage and Dusty Nail General Store ready for the April Fool’s Open Mic !
I have so many ideas on how I want to decorate the inside, I’m not sure I will be able to accomplish my ideas by the next event. I will probably put off these ideas until after the Open Mic.
The next projects
First will be a shower. We have everything to build the shower. We will be looking for a good 275+ gallon IBC tote, cheap, food grade with good tread on the spout. If you know of one please contact us
We are planning on adding another road, 2nd parking area (can be used for parking or campsites) and a few more campsites.
We also plan on moving our private residence area back. This will give more campsites. Give us and the dogs more privacy while having events and or campers.
But before we can move our spot back we have to build the 5k solar setup. This one will only be dedicated to the “Beast” class A. The big solar is for the Greenroom, Bluemoon, maybe shower, and sound/lights during events.

Sorry we haven’t posted much on what we’ve been up to. We’ve been so busy trying to get everything ready for Ladrones Quest also working on a fun event for Halloween, you’ll have to check back for more info.
Last year we took the summer months off and went on a trip, where we did workshops at different festivals. This year we had debated on closing down for a couple of months (we didn’t think we’d get much for campers due to the heat) and taking a trip. But with gas prices, we decided to stay open. To our surprise, we have been getting bookings. So far everyone has enjoyed their stay. We did have one camper who lost a tent to the winds.
We can’t forget to do our reminder for the upcoming event, Ladrones Quest..
It seems so quiet here Plateau Hame De Colquhoun right now, first day in over a week we don’t have any campers.
We’ve had a couple people ask why we don’t post more pictures of people camping? We don’t share photos of people camping out of privacy and respect to anyone staying here.
As a camper you’re welcome to take photos. But we will not take any photos of anyone staying unless asked to do so…As a camper you’re welcome to take photos. But we will not of anyone staying unless asked to do so…
All are welcome, come be yourselves, enjoy yourselves within a safe environment!
Have most of the mowing finished🤣🤯, items purchased (hopefully)🤑 to finish up the solar. Now just need to have a day that isn’t raining☔ or we have other commitments🦧 so we can finish up the solar.
We are booked heavy for the next couple weeks or so, but if you are interested in reserving a spot for a night, two or even longer visit our Plateau Hame De Colquhoun Facebook!
Plateau Hame De Colquhoun our goal is to live off our land without leaving much of a carbon footprint. We have opened our land in hopes that others can come be themselves, relax, explore, learn or teach within a safe Environment!
We made it to our stop. We’ll be spending the night here at Flying Js.. Early in the morning We’ll be heading to our last stop at a HH before heading home.
