Canyon Gateway RV Park

We left the SKP park about 10:00 AM and headed north on US-89 to Prescott. There is a sign on US-89 before starting up the hill when leaving Congress that no vehicle longer than 40' is allowed past a certain point. The road is through the mountains and has many hairpin turns which a larger rig would find difficult to negotiate without going into the oncoming lane.

We stopped in Prescott to do some shopping...first at the Petco to pick up food for Maxx, and then at Costco. After shopping at Costco, we had lunch in the rig before taking off.

Our original plan was to spend the night at the Coconino County Park at Cataract Lake just west of Williams, since the information we had was that it was open all year. However, when we got there, we found it does not open until May 1, and there was a gate across the road. Likewise, the Forest Service Campground at Cataract Lake was also closed until sometime in May. Fortunately, we do have a Passport America park in Williams, so we were able to stay at Canyon Gateway RV Park for half-price ($15.54 with tax...a bit more than the $6 we would have paid at the county park!).

Since we hadn't thought to take anything out of the freezer to thaw for dinner, we decided to go out (you don't have to twist our arms!). We ended up at Bella Donna restaurant where we had some excellent Italian food. We'll definitely go back the next time we're in Williams.

After dinner, we stopped by the Safeway store to pick up a few items that we figured would be hard to find once we got on the Reservations (Hopi and Navajo) later on this week.
