Batch #10
June 7 to June 11: Desert Hiking Towards Kennedy Meadows
Hurricane awaits Nitro at top of hill near Tehachapi.
Desert flora in the Tehachapi mountains.
I'm supposed to be horny and you aren't supposed to see me!
Nitro, Rabbit, and Doodlebug pampering themselves with a facial....uh...time to GET BACK ON THE TRAIL RABBIT!!!
Back in the desert again with the Tehachapi's just ahead.
This Euchre game is SERIOUS...we could be here for DAYS!!  Happy, Bad Moon, Phantom, and Whoop Ass.
Fruit of the Mojave....Joshua Tree fruit that is...
So the wind's only blowing about 60 mph here, let's go up where the wind turbines are and see if we can still stand!
Nitro stands by former thru-hiker who couldn't handle the hurricane force winds buffeting the hillside.
The first of 10,000 wind turbines encountered hiking into the Tehachapi area.
Abandoned gold mining equipment in the middle of hot desert.
Thank goodness for Joshua trees providing a little desert shade!  Nitro and Doodlebug take respite.
