Check Points on Havasu this week

[Stayin'ontop]

What are the websites that post the check points for the week?
Anyone know where and when they’ll be on the lake this week?
Thanks

They are normally the weekend prior to holiday. Check newspapers website or someone else may have more accurate info.

I subscribe to AZ game and fish.
I get emails about upcoming events like the free life jacket giveaway
It doesn't give exact locations of checkpoints but it does give dates.

Man up and stay sober til you get off lake.

It's still a pain in the ass to get stopped and questioned, plus they don't care about dinging your boat

On a off weekend. Would you...
Not drink
Have a few with friends or family
Drink lots
Have a DD

Does someone know the reasoning on doing checkpoints the weeks before and after ? Aren’t there more potential problems the holiday weekends ?

My guess would be manpower. They are busy enough without setting up the entrapments.

Years ago we drank on the lake.
Didn't bother anybody and didn't do stupid shit.
I think we've all done it.
They closed the sandbar for more reasons than drinking.
people did stupid shit and ruined it for everyone

I did a checkpoint at Windsor.
I knew it was there and didn't drink...that day
They were on me like flies on shit
I did everything they asked
THEN they asked how much water i had to drink
Seriously?
While they were videoing me they said they could write me up for impairment for being dehydrated
That's when i lost their respect for doing their "job"
