Short answer is yes.

You can go over the dam or go to Laughlin and then to Kingman.  Both routes are good.  The dam is shorter but, sometimes the tourist traffic slows you down making the Laughlin route a little faster.

Kingman to Phoenix is very nice with all the road improvements that have been completed.

We have travels both over the dam and though Laughlin and I normally prefer over the dam since it is shorter.  You do have to stop for inspection but that has never been a problem or taken but just a few minutes.

You know the big RV rally is in Quartsite the last half of January.. It's a couple hours west of Pheonix on I-10

The inspection going over the dam is nothing. They may look in your outside compartments or under your bed or in your refrigerator. I think a lot depends on how you look. The traffic, however, can be horrendous. Timing is everything. Stay away from weekends. Watch out for sports events (longest traffic jam we ever hit was after a Colorado-Oregon college bowl game held in Phoenix). Middle of the night is usually a good time to hit the dam. Otherwise, US-93 is a great route from LV to Phoenix.

also be aware of the speed cameras in Arizona, they have been cracking down
on people exceeding the speed limit.

That is a good thing.  Hope they are cracking down on the red light runners too.

There is no shortage of campgrounds in the Phoenix area. There are many, large snowbird CGs in the east Valley (Mesa, Tempe, Apache Junction) and a couple of very nice ones in the West Valley (El Mirage, Goodyear, Surprise), Give us an idea of what and where you are looking and we might have a few suggestions for you.

I am just going to stay a 2 or 3 days before I head out for QZ. I would like to have full hook-ups so I will be ready for QZ.

Cotton Lane RV & Resort, Buckeye, AZ, is on the west side of Phoenix right off I-10.  Convenient for your trip to QZ.
