Dead Joshua...

                   Joshua Tree National Park, 2021.

Bighorn Sheep...

    Whitewater Preserve.  These animals' ability to walk along these rocky ledges is amazing.

The Dangerous Beauty of the Cajon Pass...

 Off-road trail in the Cajon Pass.  Notice how it winds perilously close to the ledge!

These green bushes, which seem to be surrounded by large rocks caught my eye!

Cajon Pass...

 

This is a trail that begins at Cleghorn Rd.  Look at how rough the surrounding terrain is.  Imagine coming through here in the days of the Mormon Pioneers, before the toll road and the network of trails that off-roaders enjoy today.

El Paso Mountains...

                                  Drone image:  El Paso Mountains.

Notice the trail that runs along the ledge.  The dark-shaded mountain in the distance is Black Mountain.  Beyond Black Mountain, the Sierra Nevada Range can be seen.
