It is early for the desert BLM LTVA (long tern visitor areas) but we couldn’t resist stopping for a few days. Days are hot, 95F+ but there is a breeze and the evenings cool off nicely.  A few diehards are here for the winter already but there is still plenty of room to stake a claim and have great dark skies for star watching.  A couple weeks will likely be enough for our fix of dry heat.
