Mojave Trip Pictures and Trip Report

[Desertcrawler]

Lets all start a thread here and post up your favorite pictures and experiences from the Mojave trip. lilCrawler will write up a trip report to post on the site in a few days, but I thought we might want to start posting stuff here instead of the main pages.

So to get things started, here is a random sampling. lilCrawler and I ended up with over 300 shots, so it will take a bit of time to go thru them..

We played around in the spot that Ron fryed his electronics last year...

Cool pics ...flowers blomming, turle crawling, and especially the group rig shot with lil crawler and lil traveler holding the NCLR banner!

And I see Brian and Gary's roof top tent in use. And my CT110's brother. Would have like to have taken my CT110, but missed out on the trip!

Can't wait to see more pics and read the trip report!

Keep em coming.

Ron, the rooftop tent was great! This trip was a good shakedown for it. We tuned up the setup/teardown and learned a lot about tent vs wind. For two people, it's a really good solution for car camping.

Oh my gosh!! What are you guys using for camera's!! I have to say some of the photos I have seen lately are simply amazing. Codyn, what type of camera are you using?

Maybe we can have a NCLR photo taking pictures class technique. :cool:

Thanks for the kind words Tony. I'm using a Nikon D70 right now (it's been around for ~4 years I think?). On the trip I had a Tamron 17-35mm lens and a Tamron 28-200mm lens.
