We are a family of 5 with 3 kids, 12,5,&4. We're looking for other families to hang out with at Glamis. We usually make it out 6-8 times per season and like to camp on Gecko. We've tried other camp spots but cant tollerate the dust or the chance of getting buried - which I have done a couple times. We have a motorhome stacker set up pushing 70' in length so Gecko usually works out well if we get there early enough to find a good spot.
We are usually driving our sand car, black widow, with the kids in the back, but I also love riding my yfz. The kids have a Raptor (12 yr old) and the little kids have a small 50cc atv they ride in circles. We also take a rhino to cruise around with.
We would like to find some other families with kids of similar ages. We are 30 yrs old and from Paradise Valley in Arizona (Phoenix area). We plan on heading out for this up coming weekend 25th thru the 29th.

We are with glmslvr in wash 11. Nice small dunes for the kids to play in. We have had pushers in our group that don't get stuck (plenty of us to help if you do). We have kids the same age as yours as well. We have tried both Gecko and the washes and prefer the washes with kids. Let us know if you want to give it a try, we have plenty of room that weekend of Nov. 2nd through 5th.

We are from Tucson and have a nine year old son. We camp at Gecko as well. We are leaving tomorrow late afternoon and will be there until Sunday. Will not know which pad until we get there tomorrow night. Our friends from CA had to bail out this weekend because of the fire situation so we are flying solo and would love to meet up with people as well. Let me know if you want to try and hook up this weekend. We figured we would meet people out there as we do not want to ride the dunes alone.

Sorry you wont be able to make it but if your able to we'll be there. I'm planning on leaving on Wednesday around 2pm. All is welcome, just give me a heads up so I know who to look for. Like many others I have a white F350 with a 37 WW. I'll have a american flag and the bar is open flag attached to trailer.
Next trip is still up in the air. Probably christmas to new years or sooner. It all depends on work. I'd like to go after thanksgiving but will see.
