We snuck out of Phoenix on Sunday, our preferred day for navigating large metropolitan areas. The 47 miles that Alea covered were seemingly flat, but there was a gradual elevation gain of a thousand feet or so to Wickenburg.
We had contemplated camping in a city-owned campground across from their rodeo arena, but there was no toilet. So we headed instead to Loose Horse RV Park ($35, power, water, cable, adjustable showers). The irony here is that we had talked to the park manager for quite some time (long enough that she should have realized that we don't have a toilet), but in the evening when I went to use the bathroom I found it locked. Let's just say that I wasn't happy about paying $35 to pee in the bushes, which we could have done by the rodeo arena for only $8. After complaining (once my bladder was emptied), we did manage to get a key so that we could get in during the night.
