Evening Relaxation: Cats and Cool Breezes
As the temperature cools off in the evenings, there’s nothing quite like spending time outside, enjoying the cool night breeze. Whether you’re relaxing or working on a task, these moments are made even more special by the company of our feline friends. During the day, the cats usually find a cool spot under one of the containers to nap, but once night falls, they come to lay on or with us, sharing in the peacefulness of the evening.
There’s something truly comforting about their presence as we unwind after a long day. It’s a reminder of the simple joys and quiet companionship that make these evenings so enjoyable.

Discover KaHoon Campground’s Solar Repair Adventure at Plateau Hame de Colquhoun!
**Discover Ka-Hoon Campground: A Lesson in Solar Maintenance and Community**
At Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, the fusion of community and sustainability unfolds in unique ways, exemplified during a recent gathering at Cahoots Courtyard. We extend a warm welcome to visitors interested in our mission and activities, inviting you to schedule a personalized tour and chat.
During a leisurely Saturday with our newest Ka-Hoon Campground members, we encountered a practical lesson in solar panel maintenance. A cable from our solar array required attention, prompting us to shut down the main breaker for safety. After a straightforward repair involving relocating the cable to a spare connector, we inadvertently overlooked one crucial step – restoring power by turning the breaker back on.
The consequence of our oversight surfaced the following day while we were away running errands. An alert notified us of a potential shutdown of our inverter, a critical component of our solar setup. Thankfully, upon returning home, we swiftly rectified the situation, restoring normal operations and avoiding any prolonged disruption. Despite our prompt response, the afternoon’s overcast skies limited our solar recharge capacity, underscoring the importance of meticulous breaker management.
At Ka-Hoon Campground, these moments of shared learning and communal engagement define our commitment to sustainable living. Whether you’re captivated by our solar initiatives or simply eager to learn more about us and our aspirations, we encourage you to connect with our community. Join us on this journey where each day presents new insights and collaborative opportunities to thrive together.

Embrace Nature and Acceptance at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center
Experience Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center – A Place of Acceptance and Tranquility
Here at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, we aren’t anything fancy. We don’t have electric hookups, sewer services, or internet access. What we do offer is a place to relax, feel safe, meet others, listen to some music, or just hang at your campsite without fear of judgment. Everyone is welcome here, no matter who you voted for, what religion you follow, your sexuality, what you sleep in, or how much money you have.
We created this space because we often felt like outsiders ourselves, awkward and judged in many places we visited. When we embarked on this journey, we wanted to create a place where no one felt that way. We love nature, history, the stunning views, beautiful skies, and music, and we believe our location is rich with all of these. We aim to preserve this land and share it with others, with the only rules being simple: respect yourself, others, the land, and local laws.
Sadly, in our society today, we need to generate income to support ourselves and protect the land from development. However, we strive to keep costs affordable for everyone who wants to visit, whether it’s for camping, attending a festival, or participating in an event.
We also aim to provide a space where the local community can sell their goods and wares to support themselves. You can help support our goals by coming to camp, attending an event or festival, sharing our posts, liking, commenting, visiting our website, or telling your friends and family about us.

Enjoying a Cooler Day on the Mesa: A Perfect Tour and Bonfire Evening
Yesterday, we took the campers on a tour of the mesa. With the day mainly being hazy and cloudy, the temperatures were a bit cooler than usual, which made the tour more enjoyable. The cooler weather was perfect for exploring the beautiful mesa and taking in the stunning views.
After the tour, we gathered around the bonfire in the Cahoots Courtyard for a relaxing evening. It was a cool night, perfect for sharing stories and enjoying the serene ambiance of the campfire.
We truly enjoyed seeing the campers and their families having a great time, appreciating the land, and getting to know each other. These moments of connection are what make all our work here at KaHoon Campground and Event Center worth it.

Adapting to Off-Grid Living: Challenges and Rewards at Ka-Hoon Campground
Today marks the third cloudy day in a row, and with the heat, it’s been harder to conserve electricity. We’ve been running fans, and the fridge has to work overtime to stay cool. Plus, we spent a lot of time working in the studio. So, it wasn’t a surprise when we woke up this morning to find we don’t have electricity. But that’s fine. Today is cooler, the sky will clear, the sun will come out, and we always have the option of firing up the generator.
Electricity is nice, but we’ve learned to work around these types of days. Before moving here to New Mexico, we lived at an Environmental Education Center where we site-managed and worked on the music production side. We started out in an 8.5×16 fish house that we had converted into a cabin. Before buying the cabin, we lived in tents on the land.
Electricity was limited in our cabin. Though we didn’t have solar power, we did have shore power, but it required running a 200-foot heavy power cable. This meant our electricity was limited; we ran one LED lamp and a TV, and we used propane for heat and cooking.
These experiences have taught us how to adapt and make the most of what we have. Living off-grid has its challenges, but it also offers a unique and rewarding lifestyle that we wouldn’t trade for anything.

Thriving in the Desert: Life at Ka-Hoon Campground and Plateau Hame De Colquhoun
Embracing the Desert Life: Inspiration and Resilience at Ka-Hoon Campground
Living in the New Mexico desert brings a unique set of challenges and rewards. At Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, we experience the raw beauty of nature every day. Here’s a glimpse into our life in the desert and how we find inspiration amidst the heat and rugged landscape.
#### Surviving the Desert Heat
The desert heat can be intense, but we’ve adapted to make the most of it. Our days start early, taking advantage of the cooler morning temperatures to get our outdoor tasks done. By midday, when the sun is at its peak, we retreat indoors to stay cool. Our dogs, too, find refuge inside, with plenty of water and an occasional misting to keep them comfortable. Despite the heat, we find ways to stay productive, whether it’s handling paperwork, working on music, or crafting.
#### Nature’s Drama: Turkey Buzzards and Free-Ranged Cattle
The desert is alive with wildlife. Just the other day, we witnessed turkey buzzards fiercely protecting their kill near our car—a stark reminder of the untamed spirit of nature. On the flip side, there are moments of serene beauty, like watching free-ranged cattle graze in the golden rays of a New Mexico sunrise. These experiences, both raw and tranquil, enrich our lives and connect us deeply to the land.
#### Finding Beauty in Everyday Moments
Living in the desert isn’t just about surviving; it’s about thriving and finding beauty in everyday moments. The vast, open landscapes, the stunning sunsets, and the star-filled night skies are constant sources of awe. Each day brings new experiences and challenges that test our resilience and inspire us to appreciate the simple pleasures of off-grid living.
#### Building a Community
Ka-Hoon Campground is more than just a place to live; it’s a community. We gather around the communal firepit, the Colquhoun Hearth, sharing stories, music, and laughter under the stars. Our events, like the monthly Music in the Desert Saturdays and the annual Drum Circle on the Longest Day of the Year, bring people together to celebrate life and nature.
#### Join Us on This Journey
Whether you’re a camper, an event attendee, or someone interested in off-grid living, we invite you to join us on this journey. Experience the challenges and joys of desert life, and find inspiration in the unique beauty of New Mexico.

Members-Only Memorial Day Potluck at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center
Yesterday, we hosted a members-only Memorial Day potluck at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, and it was a resounding success! We had a fantastic turnout, and everyone brought delicious dishes to share. One of the highlights was Brent’s delectable Lemon Pepper Chicken, which everyone enjoyed.
After the meal, the kids had a blast crafting heart stuffies, a fun and creative activity that kept them engaged. Once they finished, they settled down in the Greenroom to watch a movie, providing a relaxing end to their busy day.
While the kids were crafting and watching movies, the adults enjoyed the serene ambiance around the bonfire in Cahoots Courtyard. It was a perfect opportunity to unwind, chat, and gaze at the breathtaking New Mexico skies.
