New year's Eve, the high desert and a feral dog. #611452 01/02/12 02:07 AM

Anonymous Unregistered A	I have been in a couple deserts camping the last few days. Here are the images. Yours truly in Dixie National Forest New Year's Eve. Got my fireworks already going. Got there early enough to do some bicycling and saw some pretty sweet stuff. Decided to play with some slow shutter speeds at Leeds Creek. Took some water from Leeds. Campsite for the first night. Close up of red Cliff. [img]http://i1008.photobucket.com/albums/af208/mediaperture/7-2.jpg[/img] Somewhere in the Mojave. [img]http://i1008.photobucket.com/albums/af208/mediaperture/12-1.jpg[/img] The 6.5 Reg. isn't the best chopper, but it got the job done. It was 60F when I go to the campsite, but I knew the high desert gets cold quick, so I gathered a lot of wood for the night so I could enjoy the clear skies in comfort. It ended up hitting 12F that night. [img]http://i1008.photobucket.com/albums/af208/mediaperture/5-3.jpg[/img] Last edited by JarheadJournalist; 01/02/12 09:10 PM.
