Dealing with winds

Ka-Hoon Campground

Wind and more wind.. Dealing with the winds up here on the mesa takes its toll on us. Going outside to work in it is hard you get sand in your mouth, eyes, lungs. We try to keep it out of the RV but that rarely works. My sinuses hate the winds and like to swell up.

Today is supposed to be the last of the winds for few days. Just in time for tomorrow nights movie night! We’ll be watching Hunger Games Mocking Jay part one and two under the beautiful night skies. All campers are welcome! You can book a campsite using one of the platforms on our website!

Why stay when you can go to BLM land?

Ka-Hoon Campground

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?

Short Break

Ka-Hoon Campground

We took a break for a few days, went camping and closed down Plateau Hame De Colquhoun. It may sound weird to some as we live full time in an RV and off-grid, yet go camping. But we still love tent camping usually in places RVs can’t get into! But now we are home refreshed but look forward to sleeping in our bed. I think the dogs will enjoy a good sleep as they are exhausted.

Taking a break and a rant

Ka-Hoon Campground

The last couple days have been windy out here on the mesa. We did have a couple campers come in during it all, very nice people and we enjoyed visiting and helping them to do few small repairs.

Last Saturday was the April Fool’s Open Mic, that morning Brent and I went out to put up signs, to help direct people out. Just about a mile from our place we found a tent set up on land owned by a neighbor we’ve become friends with, that lives in another state for now, but does come visit his land regularly.

Many people think the land up here is BLM land (This is what this person stated he thought it was). It’s not, it’s all privately owned. If you are looking for places to camp for a bit, come talk to us, we may figure something out. If you do plan to squat do some research first. Some land owners are very (rightfully) protective of their land. We did not run this tenter off, we just highly recommended that he move off that land, which he did.

Many towns people come up here to watch the sunset, see stars, catch the views or travel all the dirt roads. This is fine to do, but we have issues with a few 4wheeler operators going down private roads, cutting through private and marked property, dumping trash or household garbage and tossing beer bottles on the roads. This land isn’t a landfill, pack out your trash! Take your junk to be recycled or to a designated landfill! Come enjoy the views, drive your 4wheelers, picnic, but do it with respect. We don’t go riding through your yard and dumping our trash, or chase after your dogs (that’s rightfully on your property).

Well that’s my rant.. We might be a little quieter this week than normal. We are trying to take a few days off from projects, and events. We plan to enjoy Easter here and hang out with some friends and try not to think about events and projects. Next week we’ll be right back to getting ready for the Nomad Gathering in the Desert !

Until then make sure to visit our website, we still will be available to answer questions. We still have some availability for vendors..

https://plateauhamedecolquhoun.com/

We do have a slight schedule change/inclusion. Saturday May 20th, we may have BINGO. We are thinking of doing it at 1:30pm. Buy in per card is yet to be determined. Prizes to be determined by cards sold.

Let us know what you think a good cost per card is.

Also Saturday night the 20th will be live music by Jer Killinger Singer/Songwriter and J5th & the 77 Riders .

We hope everyone has a safe and wonderful week!!!
