Be warned: It gets toasty here in the summer ... but you can get your kicks on Route 66! A portion of the local economy is built around US 66 tourists.

The city itself is on I-40. Maybe an hour or so to Laughlin as well as Lake Havasu, two hours to Vegas, three and some change to Phoenix.

 

Kingman is also a couple of hours from the Grand Canyon, Barringer Crater and Winslow ( as mentioned in the song by the Eagles).

 

Kingman is about 10-15 degrees cooler than the Colorado River Valley.

 

Kingman is a 30-minute shot to Laughlin, an hour to Lake Mead, and four hours to LA with a good fuzzbuster.

And they have an In-N-Out restaurant.

 

In other words..... in the middle of nowhere. And, BTW, it was 110 F today.

 

I thought Needles, CA, an hour from Kingman, was the middle of nowhere.

 

Having been there, I can't disagree with you.

 

Come on, guys. It's like 15 minutes from Tahoe.

 

Love that area to visit. Thanks to another poster on this board, I discovered Oatman, practically a ghost town where wild (really tame, though) donkeys have free run of the place.

 

Yeah...one bit me on the leg once. Didn't even break the skin, though.
