Off-Grid in the Shadow of Lake Mead Country

OWNER FINANCING AVAILABLE: $100 down (plus the $250 doc fee) $115/mo for 48 months --------------------------------- Temple Bar Country, Where Arizona Goes Quiet Turn off US-93 and drive east for about fourteen miles. The pavement gives way to the kind of country where you can hear your truck tick as it cools off, and the nearest sound after that is whatever the wind decides to do. This is 1.18 acres in the Mead-O-Rama Ranchos subdivision, sitting in the wide-open stretch of northwest Arizona between Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon. There's a reason this corner of northwest Arizona draws the people it does. Run your side-by-side across the flats, rock-hound the washes, pitch a tent for a weekend, or drive out with a cooler and watch the stars come up. Hunter, off-grid builder, desert rat with a rooftop tent, guy whose wife finally said "just go buy the land already"? There's room for all of you out here. Here's what you need to know before you put a stake in the ground. There's no utility service running to the lot, so the smart play is solar plus a cistern (the sun cooperates out here about three hundred days a year). The access road is the kind of desert track that makes a 4WD worth owning, which also happens to be the reason your neighbors are going to be the kind of people who already own one. You're sitting at 3,629 feet, which puts you well above the Vegas valley floor and gives you summers that don't punish you the way the low desert does, with winters mild enough that this is a year-round parcel, not a six-month one. The country between Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon is one of the last stretches of Arizona that hasn't decided what it wants to be yet. A little bit of that ground being yours is not the worst way to spend a life.
