The heart of the southwest

So Max and I loaded up the truck and went on a camping trip to Kofa NWR. I have wanted to check out this Refuge since I moved down here. All of the pictures that I saw looked really cool and it isn't that far from San Diego. So I took Thursday and Friday off and we headed east. It took about 2.5 hours to get to Yuma and then about another hour to get into the refuge and find a camping spot for the night. An amazing trip and I am going back that's for sure. Saw a bunch of wildlife (roadrunner, mule deer, gila woodpecker, golder eagle) plus checked out some cool mines, old cabins, natural springs and slot canyons. Here are justr a few of the pictures. The sunrises and sunsets got better everytime. Plus I spent five days driving around in four wheel drive and testing my nerves in some places. Awesome!
