I pulled off the road a few miles south of Wikieup to spend the night and let my batteries charge. It was overcast all day, which helped with the heat but not the batteries, and I’m sure I ran them down too far by pushing on. I stopped in Needles for two hours and again in Kingman for about an hour but still couldn’t recover much juice. If all goes well I should be in Mesa tomorrow.
The road I pulled off on carried me to a nice campground in about a mile. I didn’t realize it was BLM until I saw the sign for 14 day camping limit.
I am the only one here! Do you suppose it is because it is 138 degrees in the shade?
How are you ever going to sleep there in that heat?
I hope you have plenty of water.
Disclaimer: It really was not 138 degrees, just an exaggerated attempt to amuse. Some thought it may have been a typo. It was hot, though, but not that hot. Only 128 degrees!
