First, my thanks to fellow WTW'ers for the great suggestions about places to boondock -- we went to several and found some new spots. We had to change our plans mid-trip due to 14 day quarantine requirements in New Mexico. So we headed back into Utah and Arizona. That required us to 'think outside the itinerary', which is when we found some of the best spots!

 

Pretty much everyone we ran into respected social distancing and facemask protocols. We never encountered any of the jerks many folks have reported. All our boondocking was just us or people that settled a half mile or more away.

 

Gotta say I loved the low gas prices.

 

Hope you enjoy some of these trip highlight photos: https://www.flickr.c...157716358035852

 

We are already planning our next trip to southern Utah!

 

Best wishes and happy travels!

Thank you, Frank. You are most kind. Angel Lake was a pleasant surprise after a long day on the road. It is now on our god places to overnight list.

Did you stay at the lake or the lower campground?

Back in 1981 we stayed at the lake quite an experience.

The wind during the night was very hard.

 

In 2012 we stayed at the lower site as the lake site was closed.

It's a nice place quiet and great views.

We stayed at the lower campground. Spot number 16, which was quite nice, mixed open and protected, very easy to level the rig. We thought about the upper CG, but with sunset coming on, we did not want to fiddle around. Good thing too, as a flock of last minute folks came into the CG shortly after we settled in. You are right about the great views and the quiet.

I think that's the same site we had in 2012.

We stayed there on the going part of the trip.
On our way home we tried to find a spot but

hunting season had started and the place was full.

PS Just checked we stayed in #6

Thanks for sharing your photos.  The photos are wonderful and they bring back memories of where I have been and have identified new areas to explore.

Tony, thanks for sharing.  I’ve gone by Comb Wash many times, but never taken the time to stop.  That will change next trip!

Thanks and happy travels! There are several lifetimes of exploration in southern Utah.

Thank you, Steve. Deciding to throw our itinerary out the window turned out to be the best way to find some really sweet spots!
