Desert Pavement
Hiking in the desert is fairly easy. The views are distant, the plants life is well dispersed, though spiny, the cactus is easy to avoid, and the surface is easy to negotiate due to the ‘desert pavement‘. In some places it’s like walking on a mosaic tiled lane. This however is man-made desert pavement, a little patio I laid between the camper and trailer.
The pictures just don’t do the rocks justice, they are so sparkly with quartz and pyrite (fools gold)!
