i ended my time in utah at bryce canyon which i highly recommend followed by a very nice pit stop at a friends house in phoenix for 10 days. then it was off to southern california. the mojave desert and death valley are unlike anywhere else i've been. although not very colorful in the winter, there's alot more here then sand. joshua, juniper and pinon trees, all kinds of cactus and hard to find animal life. i drove the old mojave trail, camped below sea level as well as in the shadow of mount whitney, the highest peak in california at 14,494' elev. echo has learned he can't catch the very fast jack rabbits and tarantulas don't like to be played with! HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL !!
