Finding an empty campsite at Valley Of Fire State Park is easy when the summer temperatures are at the boiling point, but during the comfortable winter season making reservations well ahead of time will likely be the only way to go. The RV camper and trailer length limits in this state park are also something to consider. Fortunately there are many camping options to be found outside the east gate of the Valley Of  Fire. Developed campgrounds inside the neighboring Lake Mead National Recreation Area and the picturesque Stewarts Point boondocking area are nearby. For those who prefer being a little closer to civilization, the Poverty Flats free camping zone will be the top choice.

Poverty Flats is located on a flat table top mesa overlooking the town of Overton, Nevada. Modern goods and services are available a short distance away. The cellular signals are strong and there is plenty of sunshine for solar power, so it is easy to see why Poverty Flats is a popular spot midway through winter. The entire area for several miles around is open for free camping, so solitude can be found. Several national and state parks are located in the Overton area, so campers will find plenty to do. This puts Poverty Flats at the top of the list, especially when no state park campsite reservations were made!

    *The Destination West website upgrading project is well underway. Unique YouTube slideshows are replacing the outdated Flickr photo galleries. The new videos feature modern graphics and alternative music instrumentals that enhance the viewing experience. Some articles are being condensed, while others are getting much needed edits. As everybody knows, the bulk of the original articles and photos were published on the fly during the Covid camping venture and there were limitations. Upgrading is the way to go and more articles will receive a makeover each week until this project is completed. After that, I will be able to gather new material. There is light at the end of the tunnel!
