With Labor Day behind us, the snowbirds are beginning to shiver in their skivvies and plan for their winter travels. While this is not a complete list, already many of the big Quartzsite happenings are posting up their dates. Here’s a partial calendar of activities – and remember, if you’re a boondocker, September 15 marked the opening of the winter season on Bureau of Land Management Long Term Visitor Areas.
Why not make your own plans to get away from the cold country – before you get snowed in?
