We stayed there 3 days. Ended up staying a little longer than expected outside of Flagstaff, off a forestry road.
Yeah, brought the bikes, you can see them in the flyover shot. We only road on the main dirt road. You aren't allowed to go off it. Didn't see a
ranger the entire time though. It said no fires allowed, but there was a huge stone fire-pit, so we used it every night. Not sure what could burn
out there.
The thing on the pole is a Weboost cellular signal booster. Just got it and it worked great. Kids did all their classes on Zoom every day.
Had intended to see Goosenecks, but didn't make it. Wasted 4hrs one day dealing with a hitch issue.
I could have stayed there several more days. A really peaceful place.
Great vid.
Goosenecks would have been great. Drive out to the viewing area and turn left. Go about a mile and camp on the edge. Get the drone up for some amazing
views!

Great information, thanks. Would the signal there have been strong enough to make voice calls without the booster?
A year ago, we camped in the far northwest corner of the loop and cell service was BOOMING. One of the guys said he had better cell service than at home in
SoCal.
Wow and more wow! Ok you get out of quarantine first when covid comes back for another round. Based on current situations in the US I expect that to
start in a week or two
Questions:
is this the Thelma and Louise drive area from the movie?
You can overnight camp in this area , with permit or no? Hiking up to the base of the rock formations is allowed?
What is the critter situation?
Just stunning colours.

It's BLM land. Free camping. No permit required.
I didn't see any animals. But I'm sure there are a bunch. I think you can hike anywhere, but didn't really study the signs (there aren't many).
There is one main road, a 17 mile loop. And several roads that go off the main path. Lots of different camping spots. Some are quite tucked in.
We only took the camper in about 6 miles. After that the dips become too severe.
There are about 4 different parks/things to see within a 20-30 mile radius.
Overall the place is very open and free, with no one hassling you.
