Lots of water in Carrizo Creek (04/09-04/10)
We took a late spring
trip out with Linda and Jake to see if we could find some cactus blooms and
wild flowers.
Wind was blowing kind of hard so we opted to camp in our "secret" canyon in the
Carrizo Creek area. It is really protected from the wind so it seemed like the
logical choice.
I always expect to see campers before we pull in but noone seems to ever camp
there. Yay :-)
Linda really enjoyed the campsite. Her Montero worked pretty well
getting her and Jake up the canyon.
She is now a seasoned off-roader.
Mary, Jake and Kaiel hiked up to the top of the canyon wall and were
treated to an
incredible 360' view.

We took a wrong turn in the wash and ended up
driving down this ever narrowing creek that got softer and softer. We finally
stopped after a motorcycle came back from the other direction and told us it
was very narrow.
This particular canyon began to get pretty tight
after a mile or so of driving. Kaiel and Jake acted as lookout
as we creeped up this side canyon..
One of the many reasons that we love the Anza
Borrego Desert. |
