Took my sister out to Anza Borrego yesterday for a flower hunting trip.
We drove up Indian Gorge to Indian valley and then over to Egg Mountain to have lunch. Flowers were amazing!!

He loves nature and the mountains but I can't quite get him to realize the beauty of the desert. I think it is a green thing. Then we are off to backcountry ski and camp in Yosemite for 10 days. Can't wait!!!!

Have a great trip up to Yosemite. Sounds great
We are organizing a work group trip to the Mud caves in a week.
Should get some good pics.

Best,
Bob

I will share some pics and a report from next Monday if I make it out to the desert again before we leave and if you like snow and mountains and waterfalls, I'll send you a link to my Picasa page to see some of those when I return.

Not that they aren't nice but the Desert is wide open and usually you can see for miles.

When we camped a few years back up at Pfeiffer in Big Sur, I really didn't like it.
Sure it was beautiful but it felt closed in to me.
Not to mention there were people everywhere.

That being said, I did a Sierras backpacking trip to Heart Lake last summer and that was beautiful. I would do that again in a heartbeat.
