We found this site a couple of years ago on one of our looooonnnggg jaunts in the backcountry of Joshua Tree National Park. There we were, slouching through the desert, with many pounds of camera equipment and water on our backs, since we were there to revisit our “Lonely Ledge“, “Lonely Hollow” and “Lonely Falls” discoveries and thus we were humping my full arsenal of camera equipment through the desert.
This was after we had photographed, and in one case discovered, the three sites listed above. It was late afternoon, some miles of undulating, rocky, brushy terrain laid between us and our vehicle, and the afternoon was hot. I had packed a sleeveless shirt but no sunscreen, so I was definitely a bit baked when we stumbled across this site on our way back.
