  • Next in this cross country series, I visit America's last town with no laws, Slab City, with @AstheMagpieFlies and @TryItWithTim. On the way, we stop at the creepy Salton Sea and Salvation Mountain.

    Dude! You were in my backyard! I live in indio and have been out to Salvation Mountain many times. I had the privilege of meeting and chatting with Leonard several times. I even got a personal tour from him. He was definitely a unique person. I was always amazed at how he could live out in the open desert year round. Temps over 120' are not uncommon. It's nice to see the foundation is maintaining his message. Happy trails!

    Ive been to Slab City and Salton Sea a few times.
    It suprises me how many people have never heard of or have never visited the places on their doorstep.

    Doodle, watching you grow as a motorcyclist AND as a fearless adventurer makes my heart happy. I’ve always tried to teach my daughters to be fearless explorers and now they’re teaching my grandkids the same lessons.
    My adventures around the world have taught me that people everywhere want the same thing…happiness, freedom, good food, and to be surrounded by friends and family.
    Well done, Doodle!

    Slab City and its people are pretty neat, TBH. Venture there with respect and you'll get respect right back. Go there and act like a DB, you'll get checked real fast, and leave without your belongings. :)
    Darwin, CA is another neat little place. It's relatively close to Cerro Gordo. It, too, is a town without laws. Most of its residents are wealthy hippies who the are live-let live type of folks. Peter Santenello did an episode on the town and its people.

You should Also look up Desert X Art Instilations that happen in the same area with artists from all over the world every 2 years. Think Amanda is missing the point.

      @dicksonfranssen 10 місяців тому

      @bushcraftsports3251 Sorry, I should have been a bit more clear on this. If I had friend who raped 3 women they wouldn't be my friend anymore. I don't know what your friend did and no way you have to tell me but if it was a non violent crime, not a good beating that some a-hole deserved and she either set him up or ratted him out that's not my idea of justice. Some cops and feds just want to pile up their convictions without caring who it affects. If it's just some illegal gun or drug sell does this guy really need to have his life ruined? I'm not the best communicator so I hope this is making sense. FBI etc is supposed to protect us, not screw us over for a promotion. Need to go, making dinner.

I might need to return and size down. It's too bad its so difficult to find these jackets in person to try on.
