Been nice (75) but supposed to be high 90's by weekend.


Anyone else going?

I'll be at Havasu Fri-Sat but may be back on Mead Sunday.

What's it like out there on Memorial Day?

Not like Havasu!:D

Any good places to eat and drink on the lake?

No! Bring your own.:(

Where's the place to launch and fuel?

Fuel up at Rebel in Boulder City, not on the lake. I launch at Hemminway (closest to boulder) but they are all pretty flat ramps now. I have to back the truck all the way into the water (6" lift keeps water out of cab!:D ) but it's fresh water, not salt.

Where's the good anchorages?

We go to swallow & sandy cove, wishing well in the narrows. Not sure how much will be going on over the weekend but Mead is not like Havasu. Other than the marina's (which are very low key) there is nothing on the lake but rocks and sand. Great for a peaceful quiet weekend but not so good if you want a party.
