Camping at Trona Pinnacles
Hidden in an area seemingly in the middle of nowhere between the southern tip of the Sierras and Death Valley National Park lie the Trona Pinnacles.

It is amazing how they tower about the desert floor and it is even more amazing that the area was completely underwater at one time!

Boondocking near Hawthorne, Nevada
Just north of the small, friendly desert town of Hawthorne is Walker Lake. Walker Lake is a large lake surrounded by high desert, wild horses, and rugged peak and canyons. We stayed here in April and the weather was pleasant though often windy. We did have a couple cloudy windy days. The mountains across the lake captured the storm and the clouds sat upon the ridge.
