10/01/2012 Trip Notes: Picking up a back road that led to here from the Anniversary Mine, we decided to follow the wash as it headed northwest to see what it offered. Along the way we observed a long eared jackrabbits and one of the largest lizards I have ever seen, but were unable to capture pictures of either.  The real fun of this drive, in my mind, was that I really felt like we were totally isolated from any signs of civilization. As you can see from the pictures below, along the way we were confronted with several scenic views of colorful ridges, outcroppings and rugged cliffs that beckoned for further exploration. Having already hiked about six miles earlier in the day, we were in no condition to do any more on this visit, but may go back to do some exploring in the future.
