Surviving the Summer Heat at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center offgrid living NM Desert!
Battling the Summer Heat at Ka-Hoon Campground
The relentless summer heat, with temperatures consistently soaring above 100 degrees, has been a real challenge for us. To keep our furry friends cool, they stay inside most of the day, where we mist them with cool water. As evening approaches and the temperatures drop, they joyfully spend their time playing outside.
We’re not much different. During the hottest parts of the day, we remain dormant indoors, in front of fans, sipping cool water. We try to tackle outdoor tasks early in the morning or later in the evening when it’s cooler. However, the heat can be so draining that even these times are challenging. We sometimes wonder if running the AC would make us handle the heat better or simply encourage us to stay inside more.
Despite these challenges, we remain committed to maintaining our beautiful campground and providing a welcoming space for all our visitors. Stay cool and hydrated out there!

Birdwatching Bliss at Ka-Hoon Campground!
**A Visitor from the Skies and Reflections on Our Journey**
Yesterday, we had a delightful little visitor—a hummingbird perched on one of our security cameras. It was a brief but beautiful moment that reminded us of the simple joys that nature brings, even amidst the challenges we face.
The intense heat and recent false accusations against us have left us feeling a bit discouraged, making us question if we chose the right location for our dream. Our vision has always been to create a safe haven for all—a place where you can play, listen to music, camp, and, instead of staying isolated in your RV, van, or tent, you can socialize around a fire, watch a movie under the stars, or sit and listen to music.
In our travels, we’ve stayed at numerous RV parks, state parks, and town parks. Unfortunately, we noticed a common theme: most people keep to themselves. We, however, love meeting individuals from all walks of life. We cherish hearing their stories, seeing them laugh, and watching them feel safe enough to just let loose. We thrive on creating a community where everyone feels welcome and valued.
Our goal is to help people and support local businesses. Despite the hurdles, we remain committed to our dream of building a community that fosters connection and joy. We hope that more people will come to see the beauty and peace our space offers, just like that little hummingbird did.

8 Years of Impact: Our Journey at the Environmental Education Center
It’s hard to believe that eight years ago today, we were helping out at the environmental education center, building a fence and mowing the area for a memorial garden. I miss seeing everyone who used to come out for those work weekends. Sitting around the fire, playing drums once the work was finished, created some of the best memories.
Reflecting on those times makes me feel a bit homesick, missing the camaraderie, the place, and our cozy cabin. The sense of community and purpose we shared was truly special, and it’s something I hold dear even as time goes by.

Embrace Diversity at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center
We have once again encountered claims against us, specifically that we are satanic. To clarify, we are neither religious nor satanic. We are spiritual and believe in protecting and living harmoniously with nature. We embrace our differences and believe everyone should be allowed to be themselves.
Our belief is in allowing people to enjoy life, regardless of their beliefs, sexuality, or political choices. We respect everyone for being who they are.
We enjoy laughing, talking, and being ourselves, and we welcome everyone. Unfortunately, this sometimes causes issues for others.
Our space is designed for everyone to come and safely be themselves, free from judgment and ridicule. If some locals interpret this as something negative, it is a sad reflection on the broader community.

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.
