i would like to know what is the easiest and quickest way to go from ontario, ca to parker, az. thanks for the help..

[Jordy]

Fly. :D

[HDF WATERDOG]

Quickest & easiest are 2 differrent routes.

[milkmoney]

ok let me try again i will be traveling from ontario, ca to parker, az on sat. morning towing a boat. what would be the correct way to go, as far as highways etc.. i guess still being new at this gets some bizzare answers thans again

[BowTie Rick]

10 freeway east. Exit Ehrinburg (First exit in AZ as you pass over the river). Go north. Turn left once it dead ends. 2 turns both lefts. Doesn't get any easier than that.

You'll learn to be very specific in the wording you use, as well as descriptions, when you're asking a question, especially in the sandbar. :D

Same statement holds true for the Bench Racers forum as well.
:D :) :D

[milkmoney]

That will send him back south.
Once you exit I-10 at EHRENBERG (Exit 1) go north on Parker/Poston-Mohave Road until it ends. Turn left, and you're in Parker. If you want to head up to the Strip, turn right at the second light in town. Go north. Turn left at the second light and you're on Riverside Drive AKA the Parker Strip.

[milkmoney]

thanks bc i will make a note of that. i will actually end up at emerald cove.. thanks again

Exit I-10 go left.
North until it ends. Go Left
1+1=2.
I just got him close and into city limits. He's on his own from there. Remember what Jordy said, be specific.
Great, now I am arguing with the police :eek: :D

Ding Ding Ding. Rice Road may be about 15 minutes quicker or so but much more hassle and fearing for your life. There is a Flying J at this offramp if you need inexpensive gas and then head on into Parker.

[milkmoney]

its all good in the hood just wanted to get close so i can make my way to emerald cove.. looked at map quest, but thought i would ask just in case something easier.. thats why i agree with the bc and not argue

[Schiada76]

Exit Ehrenburg, turn left over the FWY, turn right at the stop sign, about 45 minutes later turn left at the T intersection, stay straight past Parker over the bridge and turn right on Parker Dam road.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ thats it

Not meant to offend, but doesn't anyone look at full size maps anymore?
Google AAA in Ontario - drop in and get a map for your glove box. If you're not a member, then join while you are there.

What are these maps you speak of??? Is that like the thing that pops up in my navigation screen??? :idea: :D

[milkmoney]

sure i have a atlas to refer to but figure more info would be helpful on some roads i never travel..

And the best advice I've seen on this thread so far is to stay off of the 177 / Rice Road to the 62 to Parker. Too many dumbasses that pass three motorhomes and seven cars while towing at 90 MPH. Or the people not towing that dart in and out of traffic just to get a few cars ahead - all the while risking your life along with theirs.
Screw that, stay alive and go through Erinburgh. I've been going out there a lot of years and I've sworn off the former route entirely. Those people taking those risks could be the same ones that drink and boat. There should be a checkpoint on Rice Road to check for IQ. Those not passing shouldn't be allowed to cross the desert - send them to Elsinore. :)

That would make a nice addition to the collage on your boat in your sig line. Kind of "Pirates of the Carribean-ish". :D :D

Once you meet a few peeps, I guess.

[milkmoney]

that is one reason why i joined hot boat is to meet peeps and find out where they hang but i find that everybody kinda have their own little groups..

[HalletDave]

That all depends.;)
:idea:
When you get back from your weekend at Parker make sure you don't post anything .....like how you had to spin your boat out into the reeds and shit.:D
Howdy Raff. Say hello to Sara for me.:)

[1cruznhog]

Do Not Speed through Ehrinberg....
Definitely the safest route but they will be happy to write you a ticket.

[milkmoney]

[milkmoney]

[HalletDave]

no speeding here towing my boat :)
