Good to know Kalebaker has reopened. Indian Springs is one of our favorite easy hikes. We love your vids!!
This is great! Thank you
Thank you for this terrific video! It filled the bill! 😊
Glad you liked it! Thanks for commenting.
Parts of this area remind me of Spirit Mountain outside of Laughlin, NV - definitely worth checking out. The granite rock formations are breathtaking.
Great video, my next trip to Vegas will have a detour. I have always wanted to explore this area.
Thank you! Yes, it makes for a great addition to a Vegas road trip.
love your videos!! thanks for them.
You're welcome and thanks for commenting.
Thanks for sharing😊
My pleasure 😊 - thanks for commenting!
Thanks for all the great stuff you put out there, Cliff. These aren't videos... they are audio/video geographic studies.
You had beautiful weather most of the time. I did notice you made a still shot entry for that desert storm that was brewing off to the side.
You want to stay away and above any of those washes when they flood. Have you ever gotten stuck in one of those events?

You're welcome Gorrdd! They're basically video presentations, as if I was making a presentation in a lecture hall. In the Preserve, we've been there many times and we didn't live too far away. It was mostly winter, so no threat of flash floods, plus the Mojave Desert isn't known for flash floods. Those were winter storm clouds. We now live in Southwest Utah, and I help two touring companies with leading tours and we are well aware of flash flood events here. Two people just died in our favorite slot canyon, Buckskin Gulch. See our tour of that place and the warnings we give. Yes, we experienced a flash flood in the Colorado Rockies and once in Canyon de Chelly in Arizona. Both were exciting to say the least!
@@BackRoadsWest1 Thanks Cliff... Yes, video presentations is a great description. I like them because they can be studied and compared with other reference points. But actually being there is a whole other reality.
I believe in the spring and fall, with weather changes, the Mohave gets some scattered downpours. I follow an off road motorcycle UA-cam channel that was riding through therea few weeks ago and it got really muddy.
When did you move to Utah? It wasn't that long ago that you were driving buses at Yosemite.
Gord
@@gorrdd - yes, that's my goal, so people can study them as well as giving them a "virtual tour" experience. We've lived in Utah for 7 years. I drove/tour guided in Zion, not Yosemite.
@@BackRoadsWest1 Thanks Cliff... Zion... yes, that's right! Ok, my ship is now upright on no longer taking in more water...🙈

No restrictions on flying a drone there?
I'm love to watch your videos of National Mojave Preserve. It's sad to see the destruction of Castle Mountains for its gold. Mining should be outlawed at our National Parks.😢
Keep in mind that the mines were there before the national parks. Another thing to keep in mind that with all our consumer products, things we all rely on to live, if it isn't grown, it's mined. So we all rely on a lot of mining. Nevertheless, a lot of our land needs to be preserved before it is altered or destroyed forever. There has to be a fine balance of both. Thanks for commenting.
Map the ufo abduction cases in these areas too!!
I think you have the wrong video tour. Try this one: ua-cam.com/video/xOsl1jE4Fvg/v-deo.html - abductions occured wherever you see a cow alongside the road...
Isn't that in Area 51? Aren't they very close to Mohave?
Are there any campgrounds for overnite camping?
Thanks for inquiring. Our on-line guide explains a lot. It can be purchased here: www.backroadswest.com/brw/mojave-national-preserve/
Yes, there are campgrounds. We do offer guided tours, but not of the Preserve. We are based out of Southwest Utah, so we have several tours from there that are operated by different companies. This company, greaterziontours.net/ , offers great day tours and they may arrange a custom multi-day tour (because that's what it would take) for you of the Preserve. Hope that helps.
Thank you for you reply, I will take a look at your website.
Do you offer guided tours?
Did you see my reply?
Yes I did, thank you
@@filemontorres7635 excellent, thank you. Feel free to email me if you have any questions.

One of the greatest places for hunting in California. An amazing place to hunt varmits year-round, Dove and Quail, and the very best place for hunting Mule Deer.
It's even possible to shoot a Desert Bighorn here if the stars align for you.
A National Treasure!!!
Don't think it's legal (or cool) to shoot bighorn sheep
