Our Secret Spot

We discovered a "secret spot" when I took my Dad out on the ranger while he was visiting. It is a dry wash where the side walls come up over the ranger and you drive in between the "canyon" walls. So I took Tad and the kids back there the other day and they had the most fun ever. They call it their secret spot, although judging by all the tracks it's really not that much of a secret. But when we were there we were all alone and it was a lot of fun. At the end of the wash, there is a perfect area to just ride the hills and criss-cross this way and that. It was really a lot of fun and I'm sure we'll be spending a lot of time out there, especially when it starts to warm up.

This is near the start of the "canyon". There are also several smaller washes that intertwine the main wash. Some of them turned out to be dead ends, which made for a tight turn around in the ranger, and some of them had areas that were pretty tight squeezes to get into.

It's hard to tell here, but there are two washes, one on each side of where we are sitting...










This was at the end of the wash- a great big open area with tons of tracks. We didn't get to explore too much because it was already getting late when we got there, but we will go back for sure. Way too much fun.



Just because I thought these were cute...
