Looking at weather patterns north of Reno has brought us to alter our plans somewhat - rather than head northwest into what are still cold and rainy areas, we are going to slowly head back southwest to Los Angeles. My good friend Tony awaits us with bated breath. Currently we are doing some dispersal camping (free, beautiful, and no one else in sight!) in the Mojave Natural Reserve in California. To get here we traversed and camped in the cold mountains adjacent to Yosemite National Park (which was closed due to snow) and visited Mono Lake with its cool and eerie "tufas" (see pictures above). We then crossed and camped again at our old Death Valley site. We might stay here a few days, or head back to Joshua tree before driving to LA on Friday.
