Dudes in the Desert

A few weeks ago Scott, Jeff, Trevor, Clayton and Wyatt along with a group of guys from Scott's work went on a 4x4/camping/rock hunting trip. They drove on the Bradshaw Trail which has some history, but I couldn't give a very accurate lesson. I guess I should google it. Any how, it was a very long drive, around 70 miles on a dirt road. The boys were able to take turns riding on the back of Grandpa's dirt bike and steering the truck with Jeff. That helped the 7 hours pass! They had soooo much stuff they brought and only stayed one night. The end destination was a campground out in the middle of no where. They say it was really beautiful.





Along the way were a bunch of old missiles. Very exciting for a caravan of testosterone.



Clayton and Gramps




This was an old railroad used for mining. Notice how far off the ground it is and how if I was there the picture 5 spots down would not have happened.





The Three Amigos in all their glory!!!






The next day they went to a place in Blythe to hunt for geods(sp?) Scott's become quite an expert in rock and gem finding.

























This is the picture that would've never been had I come along. This track is so high up. Glad they all survived. I guess it's good to have the balance of moms over protection, and dads letting boys be boys.










You can take Wyatt 70 miles into nowhere and he'll still find a way to do something crazy. He's a funny one. How many people do you think he scared? They all had a blast and came home exhausted and filthy :)
