Water in DV

[Lighthawk]

Anyone know if you can tank up on water in Panamint Springs?

We have only used the RV water station in Furnace Creek, and I believe there's bulk water in Stovepipe Wells.

Sorry, we cannot help with Panamint Springs Resort as we've not checked on water there. We've topped off water at Stovepipe Wells, Texas Springs, and Mesquite Springs (closed for flood damage repair now).

Racking my brain and I cannot remember getting water at PSR but I'd guess you can. If you're coming in from the west the Interagency Center in Lone Pine is a good place to get water as is the Bishop Ranger/Forest station.

Tanks for the suggestions ;-)

You guys travel with extra water hose?

We don't carry a water hose but have a funnel that will work with filling the tank on the road.

Bring a water hose. I was there last March and had to use my short drain hose to fill up my five gallon jugs and then pour those into the FWC water inlet. A slightly longer hose, say 10" would have allowed me to run the hose from the faucet directly into the tank. I am pretty sure they had water available at PSR.

Plus, one of these to fit into the fill pipe without falling out. Keep in ZipLock bag to keep clean.

Thanks for the inputs. We will probably bring a short RV hose. I've found if I'm patient, I can milk the hose up and around the propane tank for storage. So far, we haven't used it but once. I also carry an adapter for non-threaded spigots common in campgrounds.

Still not sure about Panamint Springs for water, but like the idea of dashing out to Lone Pine to get gas and water midway through a longer trip. East side choices of Beatty or Parumph aren't much better, although gas would be cheaper.
