In search of Petroglyphs

December 18, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

12/15/2018 Well, we didn’t find any Petroglyphs but it wasn’t for tying. We had a  map complete with GPS coordinates but no Petroglyphs. Actually there was supposed to be a mine near by but didn’t find it either. Perhaps we need to make sure we were putting in the GPS coordinates correctly:) This time we’re …

Shaken not stirred

12/11/2018 We bounced and jostled around in the desert and mountains of the New Water Mountain Wilderness. This is a mountainous area, the mountains are not that tall and made up of jagged rocks covered with Swarros and Chollas catch and bushes, probably creosote bushes. We started off looking for a spot for a bite …

11/24/2018 Fooled you I bet:) It was actually just palm trees, in the desert, at a spring. Yesterday we went off in search of an area spring called Clapp Springs. With our sketchy directions and little to no cell service we never made in the correct direction even. Please note here, that out in the …

Yet another dippy road

11/21/2018   Elevation 213 About 7:20 we pulled out of West Shores RV Park, Sultan City CA after spending 2 nights there. Turning south towards the Mexican border, about 50 miles away, we backtracked our sightseeing route from yesterday. We started off by again passing miles and miles of hard light brown earth with scattered bushes. …

The big OOPS – that didn’t work out right

November 21, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

11/19 & 20/2018  Elevation -246 So here we are, well below sea level on the shores of the Salton Sea, the largest inland body of water in California. Apparently the sea never completely disappears but grows and shrinks every 4-5 hundred years. And it should be in a shrinking stage or at least it was until, …

We must be in California!

November 21, 2018 / Rex / 2 Comments

The water where we filled up our water tanks doesn’t taste so good, so while out exploring today we made a stop at Wally World to pick up some drinking water. You know the place where they double bag everything, sometimes putting one item in what seems like each bag, when you get home you …

Another 3 parter #3

November 18, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

11/11/2018 Well of course I had to do it again. Coming out of Valley of the Gods we were only a mile or so from the bottom of the “hill” or mountain with the road going up the side of it. You know, it was almost as intimidating the second time as it was the …

Another 3 parter #2

November 17, 2018 / Rex / 0 Comments

Another WOW road! After lunch we decided, on the spur of the moment of course, to ride down to Valley of the Gods. It wouldn’t matter what words I write or what pictures you see, there is NOTNG that come close to seeing the area with your own eyes.  The cough cough “road” winds through …
