Now at Hickiwan Trails, Why, AZ

Today we finally moved from Usery Mountain Regional Park. We loved it there! But today we were off to Hickiwan Trails RV Park near Why, AZ which near Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument and we've signed up for a week.

We left Usery at 9:50 a.m. and arrived here shortly after 1:00 p.m. after an uneventful trip. It took a long time to get set up, first of all trying to find a site that we could get into easily and then, of course, all the setup items. We were met when we drove in by Kelly of the Bayfield Bunch . Kelly and Al are also from Ontario, Canada. The people we've met here so far are really friendly.

Tomorrow I have some housekeeping items to get done so will probably be hanging around the RV.

Here's a photo of our site - doesn't look great with our truck parked where it is but here's the view from our rear window - it's not bad at all!


We went for a short walk in the desert after we were finished setting up. It's pretty but different from the area around Usery. I thought there would be some Organ Pipe Cactus here but apparently it only grows naturally within the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument.

  1. Wow, I thought you'd never leave Usery Mountain :) What a great place. We are looking forward to getting back there in March when our granddaughter comes to visit.

    I'll be interested to see what you think of Organ Pipe Cactus Natl. Monument. It's someplace we contemplated going, but now with our Mexican trip, don't think we will get there. Enjoy.
