Big Maria Mountains Wilderness

While I do like to buy local, the selection in Quartzsite is limited, so I went to Blythe. I got everything on my list except beer. In lieu thereof, I chose a Kung Fu Girl (2019, the best!) riesling.


Unfamiliar with the Blythe environs, I pulled a blindfold from my BDSM collection, brought up the Garmin map and threw darts. We came up the west side of the Big Maria Mountains Wilderness. Splendid!




Ascending the bajada, the vegetation thins to ocotillo with occasional creosote. 




There're what appear to be volcanic "bombs" lying about. I'm not sure what was happening between these two, but it looked traumatic.



 



I needed some exercise so took advantage of the opportunity. This time I pocketed my nitro, and, of course, didn't need it.
