Holy crow, Jim, you need studs on your tires to stay on the trail :lol:
Such beauty at every turn.
The rock formations are incredible.

Yeah, that blue "grass" is soooo pretty.

The desert starting to bloom :D
Tough plants in a tough environment.
Can you just imagine how hot that "soil" gets in summer. :shock:

Great pics, thanks!

Thanks you guys/gals

I have been here in July...115F,the sand was so hot you can't walk/run on it.

You need some wings too-that trail crumbles fast if you get near the edge!
