On an incredibly hot day, as I rounded a rise on a trail ascending west above Nevada's Calico Basin, I (inadvertently) came across this truly awesome sight.

Which inspired me to ask myself this profound question:

"Young man (woman), what on Earth do you wanna do with your life ???"

"Simple.


I WANNA ROCK !!!!!"

Word of advise from the old buzzard:

Please bring plenty of H2O ...


And First Aid supplies.


And Nectar IPA, your iPOD, and of course .. the kitchen sink !!!


And bug spray - don't go forgettin' the bug spray, for cryin' out LOUD !! !
