From this area are excellent views across the joshua tree forest to Cima Dome, the subtle curve on the horizon
The small volcanic rocks on the road here are numerous and sharp enough that I walk the 10-ton bike along some stretches. Kessler Peak is the small mountainous outcrop at the distant left, near which I camped several nights ago.
