Attention Women Nomads!
Would you like to camp together with other women nomads in the larger Quartzsite area in January? If so, how about we all meet in one expansive area, make friends, spread out, and camp together. Here is a chance to get to know our community of sister travelers while being COVID safe.
I apologize for the length of this post. I'm trying to anticipate questions you might have.
Please feel free to share this public information with other women nomads, on your own Facebook page, or however you wish.
Announcement:
I'm taking time off from HOWA -- I am taking a few vacation days to camp with some women friends near Plomosa Road in Bouse, January 21-26, I adore the experience of camping in nature with empowered and empowering women.
You’re Invited -- I'm suggesting, for those women who want to, that you also camp in this same expansive location at the same time. This is a personal invitation, unrelated to my work with HOWA or CRVL. I’m basically just announcing a time and location, without any organization. So, you’ll need to be very self-sufficient -- arrive fully equipped to camp and drive into wilderness-like conditions, preparing for any type of weather. And, most especially, arrive ready to initiate and create some new friendships; then invite those new friends to be your campmates. This is all about finding and experiencing community with like-minded women.
COVID precautions -- The women in my personal camp will be wearing masks when we are together, keeping that 6’ distance as we sit and chat. When you set up camp with your new friends, I’d encourage you to agree to any COVID-related precautions you choose to practice to keep yourselves safe.
About the area -- This desert location is beautiful, with hundreds of acres to spread out and make many clusters of smallish camps. Almost all of the suitable areas for camping are accessible by all types of rigs – cars, vans and RVs. It’s about 15 minutes away from a Bouse gas station and grocery store. The town’s free transfer station (42880 N 77th St) will take your garbage, Thurs-Sat 7:30-2:30. About 35 minutes away, Quartzsite has RV dumps, water, groceries, and many other conveniences. The free Quartzsite transfer station (1956 N Central Blvd.) is open Sun-Wed 7:30-2:30. Cell service is sketchy, bad to non-existent. When I was at this location a few years ago, T-Mobile seemed to have the best service.
Men -- This is BLM 14-Day land open to the general public for free dispersed camping and off-road vehicle usage. Other people will also be there without any idea why so many women are setting up camps. I expect we’ll also have couples join us. So, although I’m inviting women, men will also be around.
Main Entrance -- 33°49'38.35"N, 114° 3'20.39"W, or link on Google Maps is

Let’s Go -- I’ve missed being part of a community of supportive women nomads. I’m ready to relax, enjoy nature, and be in the presence of other women’s strength, wisdom and caring. I hope you come to camp, then find your tribe as well.
