I like to get out and explore the wilds, away from civilization.
In the spring and fall Jim Cartner and I like to go out to the desert near twentynine palms and camp for a weekend. Here are some pictures from the last trip in September 1998.
April 1997: camping with my parents in Arizona. The goal was to see Indian ruins and birds, and avoid major roads as much as possible. I met up with them in my brand new bronco at Joshua Tree. We then headed down to the Salton Sea. On to Yuma, through southern Arizona. All the way into New Mexico in the Gila wilderness. We then headed north, into the upper parts of Arizona to the Grand Canyon. I had to return home, but they continued through Las Vegas, the Hoover dam, and on home. Pictures.
July 2000: Camping in the Kelso dunes, South of Baker, California. Pictures.
