November 7,8,9 - Before it snows, 3 day weekend in Crown King anyone?
Here's a small list of ghost towns in Yavapai County. I wanna see 'em all !!!
Yavapai
* Alexandra
* Bumble Bee
* Cherry
* Clemenceau
* Cordes
* Crown King
* Jerome Junction
* Piedmont
* Stanton
* Tip Top
There are 'rooms' for overnight above the whore-house/bar in Crown King. The whore house closed in the 1960's, but the bar is still THE OLDEST BAR STILL IN EXISTENCE IN ARIZONA.
There is a live band Friday and Sturday, usually with younger cute girls. (no joke)
If we plan ahead, this could be a real good weekend. I can call the owner of the Gladiator Mine (he's a friend and former client of mine, lives in Canada) and I can get permission to camp on his 170 acres of land in Crown King. There is REAL GOOD 4 wheeling around the property as the roads washed out years ago, and the only way to get around is 4 by mule, or quad.
So say you guyz?
If I put this thing together for say NOVEMBER 7TH, 8TH, & 9TH, would you be enticed to go? Thats a Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Could we please get this to be a reality? Talk to your wives see if we can go? (It would be a fun Stag group, but thats up for a vote)
Yes?
No?
Let the wife decide?

I have rented the ENTIRE Cedar Roost hotel for us all. It's cheap if we split it. As low as $25 A NIGHT EACH, BUNK STYLE. You can also sleep in your Jeep in the parking lot right outside the room doors. There are 6 rooms. 2 rooms sleep 4, 4 rooms sleep 2.
Great fun!! Whatcha think? btw: They dont take credit card,so you gotta have cash at checkin.
It's a fantastic place to throw a weekend party for sure. Management is crazy as a loon. It's a 10 minute crawl to the bar. Breakfast is AWESOME at the two restaurants in town, but these cabins do come with a small kitchen, and each has a BBQ Included.

We can move the dates, no problem.... what dates would you like? Wanna go play in the snow also?
Always ready to listen to others and their ideas. I know the owner of the hotel, and given enough notice, again, we can own the place for 3 days.
Ask a few people to get out their calendars, see what weekend you guys want !!!

If your that close to the Grand Canyon, I'll have to stop and see it.
Whats good time and weather, really snow is ok, it will just add to the scenary...
