    West Desert Exploration

    I have spent a couple of weekends in December exploring the West Desert here is what I found in some of my travels.

    This is where I wish i had a super cool camera.





    There seemed to be plenty of wildlife.



    The first ore bin we came to. Lockers are the win.( I had to use them to get to this point)



    This is what lured me in.



    The Mines in this area seemed to be in poor condition (Cave ins, Overly fractured rock) so we didn't go in any of these.













    It appeared to be an old truck or wagon that had the ore hauling duties neither of witch I would have felt comfortable with piloting.



    It took me a couple of tries to make that corner.



    Some of you may recognize this place.









    Well until next time.
