Default Re: Joshua Tree NP trails, a few shots

glad to hear that you liked the pics, guys. I'm going out to terrain every other week or so - I'll take some pics next time again. The only problem is that I don't dare to "play" on any obstacles whole a lot out there because I fear getting stuck or break something. Maybe I should get the hilift jack or simiilar recovery device at least; last time I wanted to "play" and begun roll over some boulders - and almost instantly got a big rock stuck under my right wheel - I backed out of that quickly after I hear ugly "dragging" noise from under the vehicle, and I think it was smart because the rock would probably end up wedged in my front wheel well (and maybe screw up or break someting while there) ... I admit I got cold sweat when I saw what is bound to happen - being stuck would result in some 15 mile walk thru desert canyons in 100F+ heat (on a cold day); so I generally avoid any risks.

BTW I bought a new lens today and hope to get better shots next time

one more shot from my usual "lite" wheeling:
