glad i found this forum before the weekend comes round.....
so the wife,myself and 2 young boys 5 and 13yr old, decided we couldnt afford a small junker rv !
so we now own a tent, and somewere near to getting what would be essentials together ( only 2 nights ! ) in order for us to survive !
i am hoping vegasdesertfox will chime in here as we are also in las vegas . although we are from the u.k but in vegas now for 3yrs, having seen many of his adventures here, no doubt could point us in the right direction
forgot to mention the small yorkshire terrier will be coming !.
so we would like to find somewere within lets say an hour or so drive from l.v ( kids + travel = why did we do this ! )
we would love somewere that is not crowded/not loud/no wild parties
we would like to be able to fish, maybe bring a kayak , have bbq
facilities , toilets.
trees would be good too !....
well lake mead of course seems like the obvious but been there so many times , we would like to venture a bit more .
having also lived in california we were spoiled by the fantastic areas we day visited like yosemite, shaver lake and surrounding areas , and we may well opt for a drive thatway instead..... so any great places or ideas would be much appreciated...
any tips for the essentials also ?....as my list looks a bit thin !...will get the man vs wild reccommended flint and sharp knife incase of emergencies !
requirements are : no bears !
also off road will not work due to family van !
cheers
