I saw this at the Dome Road BLM, Quartzsite, AZ today. The picture does not show it, but the truck that tows it has the same type of structure on the back. I have passed by several times but I believe the owner is out gold mining or rock hunting by the looks of the equipment about the site.

I think the photo is deceiving. The walls come off the base at an angle to meet the arched roof. They are not and are not meant to be perpendicular to the trailer frame. It is a scaled up gypsy-styled wagon. Bando?? Anyway, arched construction and angled walls is beyond my skills. I think this is a very well done unit, not a shack on wheels.
