We are hoping to park in that area for a bit the end of December beginning of January so I now know what is on our agenda...lol<br />I did enjoy your pictures, nice to see Riley.

We joined up with one that came from right, it was through a wash. It's pretty easy walking in most places, a bit rough in others but you're mostly on the flat (unless you go into the hills) with a few up and downs but nothing much. I think you'd enjoy it. <br /><br />Take care, be safe, <br />DebOn a long and lonesome highway....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13585276461507236822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-71525583218397037942019-12-08T12:07:17.898-05:002019-12-08T12:07:17.898-05:00It is indeed fascinating and ever changing.

They will of course fall off, wear off and disappear but it is a sad thing just the same. It some how distracts from the beauty. <br /><br />Take care, be safe, <br />DebOn a long and lonesome highway....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13585276461507236822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-64429913590681307722019-12-08T12:04:58.061-05:002019-12-08T12:04:58.061-05:00It was interesting and we enjoyed the walk.

It was fun though and hopefully next time we'll get up into the hills a bit.

We hiked around the cyanide tanks as well. We didn't make it into the hills this time but maybe next time. I was surprised how firm the sand was even on the paths. It must truly be a very windy area at the best of times as even the loose sand seemed somewhat packed. <br /><br />Take care, be safe, <br />Deb On a long and lonesome highway....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13585276461507236822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-45488918987988160052019-12-08T09:56:12.021-05:002019-12-08T09:56:12.021-05:00I'll have to check it out.

Hiked ourselves up around the those big cyanide tanks as well. Amazing topography there in the Cargo Muchacho Mountains and there's gold in them there hills too.Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-35668927926933313642019-12-07T22:39:22.428-05:002019-12-07T22:39:22.428-05:00Thanks Dave.
