A closeup of our dead-end journeys. To the left was a beer break and the right side had boulders too large to get past in the wash, so we had to double back the way we came.

They are just the stock bighorns.
Where this area is about 6 miles to the north from Jim & Melissa place...it's on the Indian reservation..The Casino is wanting to make this a destination place..
