Living Free at Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center in the Highland Deserts of New Mexico
Living off-grid and running a **campground and event center in the highland deserts of New Mexico** is more than just a dream—it’s a lifestyle. At **Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center**, we wanted to create a place where people can truly be themselves, free from ridicule or judgment.
Our campground is designed with choice in mind. Do you want privacy and quiet time under the desert sky? Or would you rather socialize and connect with other campers around a fire, watch a movie under the stars, or enjoy live music and the **Advocatus Diaboli livestream show**? The choice is always yours.
Unlike a commune, we are a **campground for all kinds of stays**—whether you’re here for a short visit or a long-term adventure. The only rule we live by is respect:
* Respect for yourself
* Respect for others
* Respect for nature
* Respect for the laws we all live under
No work is required, no commitments are expected, and no one is tied down. Here, you are free to be yourself, to breathe, and to enjoy the beauty of the New Mexico desert.
If you’re looking for a place that blends **off-grid camping, community events, campfire nights, outdoor movies, live music, and the freedom to choose your own experience**, Ka-Hoon Campground is waiting for you.

Live Music & Camping Under the Stars – Advocatus Diaboli & The Grim Leafer Band at Mini Red Velvet!
**Spring at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun & Upcoming Events**
The days are getting warmer and longer here at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun LLC**, and we’re gearing up for an exciting season!
**Advocatus Diaboli & The Grim Leafer Band – Live This Sunday!**
This Sunday, **Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band** will be performing live at **Mini Red Velvet Underground**! With three new songs in the works, rehearsals are in full swing—even while battling colds. We’re pushing through to bring you an unforgettable show!
**A Community That Cares at Ka-Hoon Campground**
At **Ka-Hoon Campground**, we’ve been fortunate to host some incredible campers who appreciate the **privacy, security, and sense of community** we offer.
One camper recently shared their experience, suggesting we tell their story:
– They had trouble unhooking their camper, and we were able to provide a jack and assistance.
– Later, their vehicle’s battery died, and thanks to our jumper box (which also tests battery health), we discovered it needed replacing. After a quick jump, they made it to town to purchase a new one.
– They felt **safe and supported**, something we provide naturally but don’t always highlight.
These moments remind us why we created a **membership-based campground**—a place where you can be yourself, have your own space, and rely on a community when needed.
**Booking Reminder – Don’t Just Show Up!**
While we love meeting new people, we ask that all visitors **book in advance** through our website or contact us first. We welcome campers, members, and venue users, but as a **private property** in the middle of the desert, security is a priority—for us, our guests, and our neighbors.
**Members and campers are welcome to have guests**, but please give us a heads-up so we aren’t caught off guard. **We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to hosting you!**

Life at Ka-Hoon: Off-Grid Living, Music, and Community Updates
**Life at Ka-Hoon: Off-Grid Living, Music, and Community Updates**
**Daily Life and Projects**
We try to post daily videos, but there’s only so much we can show without becoming repetitive. As the weather warms up, we’re able to tackle more outdoor projects—but deciding which one to start with is always a challenge.
One big project we keep putting off is the **new solar setup**. The delays come down to a few things:
– We need several consecutive good weather days to build it.
– We’re unsure if we have all the necessary materials.
– We still haven’t settled on the perfect location.
Right now, our existing solar setup works fine, but expanding it would provide **more power for the studio**—something we definitely want. It’s not an urgent need, but it’s a project we’re excited to complete when the time is right.
**Advocatus Diaboli & Shamshini: Music & Rehearsals**
On the music side, **Advocatus Diaboli and Shamshini** continue live rehearsals, hanging out, and singing on **TikTok and Clapper**. Sound quality for live streams has been a challenge, but after lots of testing, we think we’ve finally found the right setup!
If you haven’t yet, follow us on **TikTok and Clapper** to catch our live sessions, interact, and be part of the experience!
**Camping & Membership at Ka-Hoon**
Camping at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center** is more than just an overnight stay—it’s about **community, freedom, and off-grid living**. Our **Membership Program** has been growing, and it’s proving to be a **valuable addition** to what we offer.
**Why Is Membership Important?**
Our **Membership Program** was created in response to camper requests for **longer-term stays** and has grown into a **thriving off-grid community**. It provides:
✅ **Security & Stability** – Members have a **safe place** to camp, homestead, or use as a basecamp for their travels.
✅ **Learning & Teaching** – Members can **attend or host classes** on topics like **homesteading, off-grid living, and art**.
✅ **Community & Support** – A **like-minded community** that helps each other with projects, advice, and skills.
✅ **Financial & Business Opportunities** – Members can **sell their goods in our general store or set up a vendor booth** at events.
✅ **Exclusive Discounts** – Members receive **discounts on all Ka-Hoon hosted events** and other perks.
✅ **Voting Rights** – Members **help shape the community** by voting on rules, events, and regulations.
**Camping at Ka-Hoon**
If you’re looking for a **safe, private place to camp**, Ka-Hoon offers a **unique off-grid experience**. Whether you want to:
– Experience **off-grid living and homesteading** before committing to land ownership
– Find a **basecamp for travel and adventure**
– Stay long-term in a **community-oriented environment**
We have **daily, weekly, and monthly camping options**, with **membership benefits** available for those who want a deeper connection to the community.

Off-Grid Morning: Solar Power Challenges and Life with Vibria the Pup at KaHoon Campground
This morning, we woke up to find the solar power out, which was strange since we had a full day of sun yesterday. As I lay in bed, my mind raced with possible reasons. My first thought was that maybe we’d forgotten to turn off the PA after rehearsal with the animatronics. That thing pulls about 3,000 watts, and we’ve accidentally left it on a few times before. But I distinctly remembered us shutting it down, so that couldn’t be it. The next thought, which I dreaded, was that something might be wrong with the solar system itself.
Eventually, I gave in and got up, mostly because the dogs decided it was time. Vibria was already calling from her box, ready to start the day. After letting the dogs out, I usually throw in a bit of fetch, fill up their water, and inevitably annoy them by going inside to make coffee. But not today. Today, I was on a mission to figure out what happened with the solar.
It didn’t take long to crack the case. Somehow, the fridge had switched to using both electric and gas. That means it draws power from the batteries first before automatically switching to gas when the power runs out. To make things worse, the RV charging system had switched to boost mode, which draws extra power to charge the RV batteries faster. Running both the fridge and boost mode overnight drained the system. It’s fine during the day when the solar’s up and running, but overnight? Not so much.
With a sigh of relief, I realized nothing was broken. Now, we’re just waiting for the sun to come up and recharge the solar. It’s a bit cloudy this morning, so it may take longer than usual, but it only takes about an hour or two of full sun to get the batteries back to normal.
Meanwhile, the dogs got their morning playtime, barked at a camper stopping by to say hello, and are now back to napping. Vibria’s curled up at my feet, and we’re just waiting on that coffee to percolate.

Halloween Hootenanny & Dance of the Dead: Live Performances by Advocatus Diaboli & Grim Leafer Band!
Yesterday, we took the day off and relaxed by watching football with our neighbors. After dropping Anne off at work, we enjoyed some downtime, caught a few games, and did a few small tasks around the house. It was a nice break, especially after the excitement of Saturday’s Music in the Desert Talent Show and Karaoke.
This week is going to be busy with appointments and Anne’s work schedule. We also have to take care of a few things, like putting new brakes on the car. Most importantly, we’ll be spending a lot of time rehearsing, as ** Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band ** has some upcoming shows! We’ve got a few new songs to introduce, and we’re fine-tuning all the new conversions we’ve made. During Saturday’s show, we found an error in one of the songs, but it ended up being a funny moment. We’ll definitely be fixing that one—but we might just keep the mixed-up version for laughs!
**Upcoming Performances for Advocatus Diaboli **:
– **Saturday**: Halloween Hootenanny at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center
– **November 1st**: Halloween Dance of the Dead at Red Gorilla Studios
