Thanks Anneli, it was installed about two years ago.
It’s a divider between the area where there are steel roofed sunshades and cooking grilles and the ‘wild’ area that has the hiking trails. It really grinds my gears to see tenny tracks outside the trail proper! 😑
Thank you Anneli! Life is so weird – I care so much for the preservation of this desert, contrasted by being somewhat accustomed to -20F weather as a young man. Eh? 🤔🌵
If it wasn’t for the heat, skeeters, locusts, and poor healthcare, I might consider moving back to the desert. What is your electric bill in the summer?
The health care here isn’t as good as back home for sure. Skeeters? They are extremely rare here in my experience. I live alone so monthly costs are a bit lower I suppose. The summer cooling bill is around $200 bucks, maybe a bit more… I’m pulling that number from what memory I have left!
Great images John. You have the touch!

I agree with you. Once a trail is made, use it if you’re going to be out there.

I used to live in northern BC and I never want to be that cold again.

Thanks! That’s a fairly new fence in Calico Basin just outside the city.
