QuartzsiteVisitorGuide.com 33 Quartzsite has over 50 RV Parks to choose from. Be sure to pick up the New RV Parks Brochure at Quartzsite Chamber & Tourism, 1240 W. Main St., across from McDonald's. The La Posa Long Term Visitor Area (LTVA) was created in 1983 to fulfill the needs of winter visitors and to protect the local desert ecosystem from overuse. The campground is approximately 11,400 acres in size, flat landscape, sparsely veg- etated with plants such as creosote bushes, palo verde trees, ironwood trees, mesquite trees and various species of cacti. La Posa LTVA offers solitude in a unique desert landscape and a variety of recreational opportunities such as hiking, wildlife viewing and rockhounding. Whether you're planning a single visit or coming back multiple times a year, enjoy the convenience of purchasing a pass before you arrive to cover rec- reation-related fees at Bureau of Land Management sites. Learn more about site-specific digital pass op- tions at the Yuma Field Office and buy your pass. The LTVA long term permit ($180) allows use of Bureau of Land Management designated LTVAs continuously from September 15th to April 15th (a total of 7 months), or for any length of time between those two dates. The LTVA short-visit permit ($40) allows use of Bureau of Land Man- agement designated LTVAs for any 14 consec- utive day period from September 15th to April 15th, which begins on the day the permit receipt is exchanged for the official permit and decal. The short-visit permit may be renewed an unlimited number of times for the cost of the permit. LTVA permits are valid at all of the Bureau of Land Man- agement LTVAs. Visitors must pay daily fees or purchase annual per- mits at the Yuma Field Office, on site, or online at https://www. recreation.gov/sitepass. CAMPING IN QUARTZSITE QuartzsiteVisitorGuide.com 33
