Any one who has been to Boulder Beach Camping ground on Lake Mead in Nevada?
I was thinking about going camping there for my birthday, is august a good month to go? I just wanted everyones opinion who’s been there. When i looked it up on google map, it was just a beach, do you just pitch a tent on the beach infront of everyone or is there another place for the capmers or can you pretty much just camp anywhere??? I want to take 5 people(myself, my parents and 2 friends). Is there camping right by the lake, and do they allow you to swim in lake mead? Was it fun for you, are there cliffs there to go cliff jumping and what are some of the things you did while you were there?
Oh, and is there anywhere that you would recommend thats better then boulder beach thats a campground near lake mead?
well, thank you for that wonderful speech, im sure ill have lots of fun!
In August? If you like 115 degree weather, no trees and a beach with a lot of sharp rocks, go for it! Also, if enjoy sewer like stench, you’ll love Lake Mead in the warmer months! You could jump off the cliffs, but the lake has receded so much, you’ll hit solid rock, not water. You can swim in the lake, the ammonium perchlorate levels and other toxic chemicals dumped in the lake have dropped significantly and don’t mind those floaties in the lake, they’re probably nothing. Oh, and I haven’t heard of coyotes or meth attics lurking at the lake attacking anyone in a long time.
I have had wonderful experiences at Lake Mead. A sliced open foot from stepping on a jagged rock in the water, a rash from swimming in something, sever sunburn and someone breaking into my car.
Of course, this wasn’t all at Boulder Beach, so you should be fine.
