Re: 2018 Desert Trip

Don’s setup made it out unscathed as his truck blocked it from the gust. The sun was getting low, so shade ended up coming from our campers anyway. We broke out some local salsa and chips, beers and everybody started cooking dinner. Ian and I tried out his handmade Skottle built by a welder gal he works with. The skottle being the name of a stupid expensive device that overlanders are willing to pay $250 for the pleasure of cooking on it. It really is nothing more than a plow disc with the hole filled in, handles added and a bracket to hold a single Coleman burner under it. It’s also known in the southwest as a Discada. Call it a Mexican wok if you want all I know is it cooks up some mean fajitas and a pretty good breakfast too.



We didn’t starve. It was right after Dinner that Ty managed to find us via the Spot tracking Larry had running.


Obligatory desert sunset pic. Funny nobody was up early enough to take sunrise pics. I don't know why.


Mojave Road trail day 2 up next..
