Salton Sea Adventure, Ladder Cyn, Meteor Showers, Mud Volcanoes, Salvation Mtn

We will do the Ladder Cyn Hike and the Grottoes, and the other Cultural Wasteland Oddities.

This is easy camping, moderate hiking and a culture vulture tour all in one!

The itinerary:

Fri (eve):

• Arrive when you can. Settle in to camp. Dinner, Games (as in game night), or just appreciate the quiet and solitude, and the dark skies bright with stars. The Orionids Meteor Showers are in progress while we are there. Spectacular Dark Skies

Sat: Painted Canyon, Little Painted Canyon, and Big Split Rock and Salton Sea in general.

Sun Mud Volcanoes, Obsidian Buttes, Bombay Beach, Salvation Mtn, East Jesus, The International Banana Museum, The Dinos at Cabozan.

We will pack in a LOT!!!

Painted Canyon, Little Painted Canyon, and Big Split Rock.
One has Ladders along the route. another has a Knotted rope line. Hence Ladder Cyn Hike and Rope Cyn Hike. Little Painted has no added appliances. Big Split Rock is not even on the agenda but it can be done on Sunday if you don't want to do the cultural wasteland tour.
The Grottos, . . now that is unique to CA, . . . They are also called Mud Caves. They are Slot Canyons that grew too deep and were close at the top and got covered at the top of the channel. They are safe. There are light shafts that shoot in. It's like nothing else.

We get the visit to the Salton Sea, . . . the longest running man-made natural disaster. The Mud Volcanoes are a byproduct of the weight of the water. Bombay beach is the result of a salt swamp reclaiming the land. Salvation Mtn and East Jesus are kinda like a permanent burning man sites. The Bannana Museum, The Dinos at Cabozan, . . . It's all just awesome.

While we are there the Oronid Metor Shower is happening!!!!

Better to come and see for yourself.

Questions:

Q I don't camp OR I have not camped OR I am a newbie camper. Is this a good start?
A YES!!!! Car is steps from the site. Site is flat and without rocks. Plenty people there to help and be company. Small convenience store close. Clean bathrooms with flush toilets and running water and even showers!! Our site should even have electricity too. And with all this we are still miles from civilization in every direction.

Q I want to come but don't have a friend to come with.
A Most folks come on their own. After all it is a meetup. You will feel right at home with a good bunch of good people enjoying the stunning outdoors and adventure.

A That's OK. There will be some folks who do a second set of hikes on Sunday.

Q I want to do the cultural wasteland stuff on Sunday but not the Sat hikes.
A That's OK. There is a list of places for you to go and do on Sat that will be bonus sites for those folks.
