I used most of my water but the only thing better than one cup of coffee is two.
What a great morning view.
Whoops, looks like I’m lost again.
Here’s the road to backtrack.
But look, I found a shortcut!
The shortcut evaporated.
Wisely chickening out, backtracking from my “shortcut”, and backtracking to Oil Springs Road yielded me this road sign.
Taking a break amid the cows.
Heading into the Natural Gas plant.
It turns out much of a Natural Gas plant (or maybe “field”?) is just scatteredpipes sticking out of the ground.
This is called Rainbow Cliffs, it was underwhelming.
Lander was a miracle! Free camping, with shade and grass!
A happy hippy crowd.
With dogs!
And kids to pet the dogs.
And food trucks! And beer trucks!
What more could a tired desert wanderer want?
