Absolutely amazing. Outstanding photos. Now if you could just post the link for that wet desert smell, we'd all be there with you. Thanks for sharing.   spc

Fantastic trip report and pictures!  After seeing your pics, I'm definitely getting back to BiBe for a solo trip before my annual trip with my little girl in December!
