QUARTZSITE, ARIZONA<br />

PLOMOSA RD<br />

<strong>Quartzsite</strong> may be the snowbird<br />

capital of the world, and the town<br />

has been a rockhound’s dream since<br />

the 1960s. <strong>Quartzsite</strong> has indeed<br />

become a mecca to well over a million<br />

visitors during the town’s annual<br />

shows and swap meets in January<br />

and February. From its humble beginnings<br />

the now-massive <strong>Quartzsite</strong><br />

show has grown to RV-epic proportions,<br />

with vendors offering everything<br />

from a Navajo rug to a new<br />

turbo-charged RV engine.<br />

Admission is free as is camping<br />

on the nearby government lands,<br />

where RVers claim a bit of dusty<br />

desert soil for their very own.<br />

<strong>Quartzsite</strong> gets HOT in the summer<br />

and folks are scarce when the temperatures<br />

top 110 degrees.<br />

In the winter though, when the<br />

town of a few thousand permanent<br />

residents swells to hundreds of<br />

thousands at a time (most in RVs),<br />

the temperature is typically mild<br />

with sunny skies, so if you show up<br />

bring shorts and suntan lotion.<br />
