This was our site at the ‘Wholes in the wall’ campground in the Mojave desert:
Believe it or not, there are plenty of plants in the desert and it’s beautiful!
But it also has its pitfalls. We were just about to set out for our first walk and thinking about whether the area was any good for an early morning run when we came across a sign with lots of information about wildlife in the area.
It warned about the ‘Mojave rattlesnake ‘. š We did the only thing you are not supposed to do: Google it š Wikipedia kindly informed us that the Mojave rattlesnake is the most aggressive and most venomous of all rattlesnakes. ššš¤£ Sometimes it’s better to just not know….
The campground was actually named after the most famous trail there: the ‘Wholes in the Wall’ trail.
Here’s the reason for the somewhat weird name: š
At the last part of the trail you get to climb up the canyon š¤©
And afterwards you are rewarded with a nice view!
