We displaced from the Needle Mountain Road BLM area this morning and headed east and south towards a BLM area I'd boondocked in last year. Its south of Tonopah, AZ, lots of space, found a smoother road in (last year I picked the worst possible road apparently) and joined the several RVs already onsite.
Along the way, we dumped tanks and took on water at the Cattails Cove State Park along US 95. $15 and the attendant made sure to tell us that this did NOT include showers.
We also gassed up both in terms of gasoline and propane at the junction of I-40 and US95.
Got to the Tonopah site shortly after noon and set up with no issues:
We then went for a hike later in the afternoon, warm and breezy...a bit chilly in the shadows but definitely warmer than the last couple of days.
In the area, we also found a burned down Class A RV, it must have happened recently because you could still smell the smoke the fire caused! The plates don't expire till 2020 so the poor owners had recently renewed them I think.

Sunset was very mild, no clouds in the sky to reflect the sun as it went west ....

Great sunset pictures at the end. It looks painted...
Thanks RichardM
The mountain silhouette looks awesome, Dom.
The burned out RV looks terrible. I hope nobody did hurt. Won't the wreck be salvaged and taken to the dump?
Thanks SonjaM
As to the remnants of the RV, I assume once it's reported to or sighted by a BLM agent, that they'll take care of moving it to the local junkyard.
