Hiya. I've lurked for a while but finally got around to posting recently.
I'm from San Jose but the Mr and I like to spend as much time as possible exploring the desert backcountry and the DV area is naturally our favorite. We enjoy long cross country hikes, bagging peaks, canyons, climbing, photography, 4x4 runs, discovering cool tucked away places (especially old cabins - we have a 'cabin kit' in our truck and try to do a little maintenance/rodent control when we find one) and generally just getting away from the crowds of Silicon Valley. My 'second home' is the 395 corridor - summer in the Sierra, rest of the year in the desert. Can't wait for the day I can retire out here.
Anyways, thanks for the inspiration, the mysteries, and information. Hope to contribute where I can.
Heading out for Thanksgiving week and as usual, the 'todo' list is much longer than the 9 days I'll have to spend out there, but I still love every second of it.
