“Nice spot on weekdays before Memorial Day”

This is a very pretty forested area with a few options for decent solar exposure. I'd rate it a 5 during the week before Memorial Day. On the weekends, however, the inconsiderate ATV riders made it almost intolerable where I was parked. I moved for the second week, but by then people had started leaving their rigs parked their for return on the weekends and it started getting pretty congested. I've posted a screenshot of the best 2 locations for solar exposure. The spot just outside the trees (labeled 1) is the best for solar, but on the weekends, the dust is just too much. The second spot (2), just about 50 yards to the north, would be the best with a supplemental ground solar panel and extension cables to get to the sun for the 3 or so hours when the shade will block rooftop panels. The area labeled 3 might be ok during the week, but this seems to be first choice for groups of rigs. There is a 4th open area to the east, but it is also where the groups congregate. Nice hiking and biking nearby on the Arizona Trail or on the ATV trails on weekdays. As far as I could tell, the closest place for supplies or even trash is Flagstaff which is about 35 miles.
