Next day, off to Cal City area, and yes, the trail marker dudes had been here as well

Last bit of green left in the desert


Yep, more signed trails

One of the trails to the hilltop bunker, yes they are all now numbered

It started getting real hot, time to relax in the shade, drinks, snacks, a good murder mystery novel, and a great view

It was friggin' hot, desert tortoise number 2 uses my truck for shade

Off to Horned Toad Hills, going up in elevation didn't result in cooler weather

On the way down, desert tortoise number 3

Checking out the canyons, zero wind, felt like a blast furnace




Sunset
