Tecopa Trip Part I

This time our sights are set for Tecopa Hot Springs near Shoshone California in the Eastern Mojave Desert. In this segment we visit China Ranch Date Farms and an old building that once housed a store and a brothel. Built in 1903 it serviced the miners who worked and lived in the area.

Awesome footage. Beautiful geology.

Sir-Poops-A-lot and I were watching, and he mentioned that he thought Tabby was the only one "ruffing it." ;-)

LOL good pun! Ya we had it really tough there at base camp.

[artistfarmer]

That is awesome!!  Thanks for sharing this stuff.....:-)

I now have directions to the open, free and natural hotsprings which look much better than anything I saw in the "town". I will go there next time.

The German tourists who's bones were just found after years of being lost in DV knew how to do it. All ya have to do is be dumber than rocks I guess.

It takes special care and maybe training to be able to die out there some times, it seems to me. Ya gots to go some place that people won't stumble upon you, then you have to go without water in the Summer. }:-}

We didn't go all the way out to the middle of nowhere just to watch TV. We just used that while at Base Camp for watching the Basketball All Stars competition.

Dude ... why would you go all of the way out to the middle of nowhere, just to watch TV?! ~:^d

[mobiltec]

I could not believe it when after traveling all day long out in the deserts of Death Valley we end up at a desolate mining camp and find people there. LOL... I don't for the life of me know how people manage to die in Death Valley when you can't turn a corner without running into other people.

I like places where there are few to no other humans. }:-}
