Trip East - Las Vegas


We head out of Quartzsite and follow the Colorado River



Pass through Lake Havasu City


Home of the London Bridge - will stop here on the return trip


Our first stop is Lake Mead Recreation Area.  We go by Hoover Dam first and drove in.  Had to stop and have the inside and all the compartments of the RV searched before we could go over dam.  









Couldnt find parking for the RV with the tow vehicle so just did a quick drive through.  The water is down 183 feet from the full level.  The lake shoreline is 550 miles.  That's a lot of water gone!  The bleached stone is where the water used to be up to.





We continue on to our campsite at Las Vegas Bay





 
We stopped at the Las Vegas Bay Overlook.  Here's the view of Lake Mead



The wash that goes under the bridge on the road is dry


Where we are the water should be just below us.


No hookups, but water and bathroom available.  Not bad for $10 a night.  Only 1/2 hour drive to the Vegas Strip

The campground sits on a bluff 


Tomorrow we head to Las Vegas!
