So, this week will be spent boondocking at <strong>Mittry Lake<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.campendium.com\/mittry-lake-wildlife-area\">check it out on Campendium<\/a>) within the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.azgfd.gov\/outdoor_recreation\/wildlife_area_mittry_lake.shtml\">Mittry Lake Wildlife Area<\/a> where one has ample opportunity for camping, <span class=\"body\">fishing, wildlife watching, hiking, boating, and even hunting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Due to arriving on a Saturday afternoon we were not left with a whole lot of options of places to camp. Instead of wasting too much time trying to find the perfect spot, we settled on a location very near the boat ramp. This meant we got a little traffic each day, but this does not take away from the experience of Mittry Lake.<\/p>\n<p>Warm days, cool nights, singing birds, wild packs of mosquitoes, and the distant booms of bombs hitting their target at the proving grounds over the horizon are all part of the vibe here. Peaceful yet close enough to town to run errands, Mittry Lake is yet another great boondocking location. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1846.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7343\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1846-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1846\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1846-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1846-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1846.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1847.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7344\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1847-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1847\" width=\"474\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1847-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1847-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1847.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1858.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7345\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1858-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1858\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1858-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1858-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1858.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/> <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1858.jpg\"><!--more--><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1861.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7346\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1861-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1861\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1861-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1861-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1861.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1917.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7348\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1917-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1917\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1917-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1917-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1917.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1870.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7347\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1870-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1870\" width=\"474\" height=\"712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1870-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1870-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1870.jpg 1065w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1940.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7342\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1940-1024x394.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1940\" width=\"474\" height=\"182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1940-1024x394.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1940-300x115.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_1940.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The decision to stay near the Yuma area for another week was made after the initial trip to Algodones.
