What can you guys tell me about this area?  I rode up through the mtns. yesterday and came upon Parker Canyon Lake about 30 miles in.  seemed to be a pretty nice area to camp and whatnot, but there was NOBODY there, it was basically abandon w/ the exception of two old hippies and their dog down by the boat launch.  I'm thinking about going up there in a few weeks for a weekend camp/bbq.  we ended up coming back down and into Sonoita, AZ and back around to 90, etc. basically did a big circle.  Any of you motorcycle guys....ESPECIALLY dual-sport/enduro riders....this would be a GREAT group ride!!  

Like several southern AZ lakes, it has mercury in it and you can't eat the fish.

Those 'two old hippies and their dog' were actually two 30 year olds with their kid.


They ate the fish.
