Did you know that Robert mcculloch owned all of lake Havasu and was his test lake for his outboards until he decided to develop the real estate and make that his focus. Mcculloch was wealthy beyond imagination. I wish someone would do a piece on him.

[@fredx6678]

I knew he was McCulloch of McCulloch chain saws and superchargers, but not about outboards, makes sense. I had heard that when he bought the London bridge, he thought he was buying the infamous Tower bridge.

Thank you for sharing!

[@mcoffroadinaz4075]

My favorite things in and around Parker and Lake Havasu in no particular order: I just noticed how out of control this list got quickly... oh well. Fun area. The Desert Bar outside of Parker. The Drag Boat races at Blue Water Casino on the river. Bill Williams River Body Beach and all the racers. The back way to Alamo Lake Swansea Ghost town Foxes and Roadrunner bars on the River. Lapaz state park Rusty's breakfast in Havasu. The bridge and the island itself. Love the walking trails, under the bridge, and all the little shops. There are condos to rent too. All the rental properties in LHC that make long stays affordable and fun. All the lighthouses. The offroad trails east of LHC. Can you find the "Race Track?" The shooting range in LHC. The sand bar, and copper canyon depending on where the fun is. Taking boats or PWC up river. Black Meadow Landing on the Commie side. The dirrerent boating events over the year, including some massive power boats as well as World Finals Jetski event. Many more things too.

@jessiesdroneadventures7464. Thank you, I enjoyed the view! A friend owns one of those mansions on the river there. The water is so incredible. Lots of good fishing there. I'd love to see you do a drone on four peaks. I climbed that about 5 years ago to the very top. Thanks again.

[@Clawson_customs]

I went to Havasu and the bridge probably 18 years ago for spring break. It was a blast i was young and had just bought my new boat and a new dodge cummins truck. Me and some other coal miner's i worked with drove down there and party's every day for a week. It was a awesome time.

I've been a fan for a while now. Yes- California is a water hog. I live up by the Shasta Dam. They even get the lion's share of our water. Many people say it's the almond trees. IDK. Anyway, I enjoy your work and I have learned a lot! Working on getting used to your sense of humor. I'm an old lady. 71 last week. I hope to visit some of the places in your videos someday. Keep up the good work! And thanks :o)

hey, you fixed the check engine light! cool video, gotta watch out for power lines they can sneak up on you.

I did! it turned off after I got an oil change!! and yes! always watch out for power lines!

[@maisonavery]

I live in Utah near the Colorado River, and I just love how turquoise the color of the river gets as you go down into Arizona and even southern Utah. Never heard of Parker, but I’m definitely visitingthis spring.

[@maisonavery]

Was just at the east side of lake mead, where the virgin river dumps into it. So beautiful I just love the Mojave desert. And NV actually has a very good water program and managed much better than other states. Phoenix has been notorious for using “water wrong”.

[@maisonavery]

Dang you can drive on it but not walk across it?

yea, unfortunatley!

When I started watching this video I was completely unaware that this would turn into an epic tale of one man and his faithful drone's resolve and perseverance against all odds in conquering adversity 💪😀 I'm amped you made it to the dam. Dayum! Looks very cool, I'm heading there in two weeks to explore. Thanks for the education and all the great trip ideas as always Jesse! I appreciate you brother🙏 PS I've camped in Lake Havasu and shockingly 😮 drove over London Bridge. It didn't fall down?!? Cried. My whole childhood is a lie now 😐

[@jessiesdroneadventures7464]

Hey no problem!! appreciate you checking out the video!!....lol, london bridge didnt fall down

[@wje2]

Great video. 1. I remember Charlie and the Family murders and trials. 2. I do not remember Bonnie and Clyde. 3. An urban legend from Philadelphia was that Robert McCulloch actually thought he had bought the Tower Bridge in London and was quite angry that the Brits cheated him. Turns out the Urban Legend was not true. BUT, I believed that until I moved here in 2019. Bonus 1. The lamps on the bridge are said to have been made from melted down cannons of Napoleon Bonaparte’s defeated army. Bonus 2, the fountain you passed catches the summer sunsets just right and looks like liquid fire.

[@jessiesdroneadventures7464]

hey thanks for sharing! I read that about robert mcculloch as well! lots of interesting facts about this bridge and surrounding area! thanks for checking out the video!

[@jessiesdroneadventures7464]

oh nice!!!

[@asquithmainlines699]

My parents stayed at River Lodge Resort on the California side of the river just before the dam for 14 years. I always found the drive along the California side from Parker to the dam to be way more scenic and enjoyable. Unfortunately River lodge was eventually taken over by new owners who replaced the camp sites with Park models. They paved paradise and put up a parking lot!

[@Mary-t5d5c]

Growing up in az i have to say we went to the flumes at lake pleasent for our spring breaks. Boondockers! Best time of my life. Truly

[@Got2gofishin]

Growing up in Arizona during the 70s and 80s was a great time to be young. I have lots of great memories of going to Lake Havasu during spring break and summer vacation with my friends. We would hang out on the boardwalk at the bridge and there would be so many boats in the channel that we could walk from one side to the other from boat to boat and back. Everyone was drinking, and dancing on the boats. Girls were dancing and really shaking and showing what they had. We would camp out on the beach and party all night. Big bon fires and lots of great food and music. It’s sad that you can’t do that anymore. Of course I’m too old now but I still go to Parker to camp and play with my boat on the River. I like watching the jet boat racing and I like to fish for bass on the lake.

[@Sins83]

Good info but Havasu is pretty well known. Now if you did some scouting around Bill Williams river up to Alamo lake and Big Sandy river that is beautiful land that would be really interesting!

[@jessiesdroneadventures7464]

Thanks for the info

[@coolcutsgal2]

You must have filmed this on a Thursday because what they do is they close down the damn so that the fields out south of Parker can use the water and be flooded and they do it every Thursday

[@jessiesdroneadventures7464]

Sure did!!!

[@Bonzai1000]

Thank you very much for showing all those incredible places in AZ. I cant wait to come back there. I hope next year in around August. I have very dear friends in Apache Junction. I visited them last time in 2017 and i miss this place every day since.

[@thedwarfgimli5323]

My family and friends and I used to drive our golf carts up the trailer park near the bridge and float down the river, someone would drive back and forth picking us up and dropping us off. Super close community in that trailer park you were near. Fun times.

[@jessiesdroneadventures7464]

Sounds like some awesome memories!!!

[@timothyprice1916]

As you approach the dam turn right to the boat launch, at the top is a historical marker and picnic area. I fly there an d get good shots of the dam with no power lines and no “no drone” signs.

You're saying Parker Dam is "deeper" than Hoover Dam because its foundation is so far below the natural level of the earth? Because Hoover Dam is over 700 feet high.

[@beaumedlar]

Since you're in the area, you should do a video just south of Quartzsite along the Kofa Mountains and surrounding Plamosa Mountains. Dripping Springs, Skull Rock, and Palm Canyon, marvelous places that lack any great coverage yet on KZbin. I'm a biased local, but it's wicked awesome as for cool Arizona desert scenery and history go.

I grew up in Parker and as a kid I went to Bobby D's diner a lot. My Grandparent's church, Christ Church on the River was just down River Walk Dr and it was everyones post Xhurch food and social spot. The owner was awesome, friends with everyone in town. Great food and atmosphere. I think it closed when he passed away and his kids cut and run with whatever they got outa him leaving the restaurant under ownership of the town. I coupd be wrong on the details of ownership as its been years now, but Great town to grow up in, good people too.
