    We took a short trip from San Diego to explore one of Southern California's hidden gems: Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. We visit some of the area's top destinations, give RV boondocking a try, and go off-roading on our KTM 390 Adventure bike. See why this California state park is so underrated!

    Watch out for the washes and flooding when hiking! When COVID hit and world stopped we got “stuck” out there since we couldn’t check in to any RV park.. it ended up being the best time and I would come to miss that amazing downtime we had with our family out there. Anza Borrego def hold a special place in my heart!
    I love that you found pie! No one ever knows about Julian!!

    Was at the layer cake today. Knew I was looking back millions of years. Bumped into a SDSU geology field trip & asked the professor how old the layercake formation was. He told me the KT boundary (end of the dinosaurs) was halfway up the wall. Had no idea I was looking at tens of millions of years. Wow. Amazing..

    I couldn’t understand the mouthfull name until I found out what it meant. Like you, I took a ton of photos of those metal sculptures & bike ride-but a pedal bike ride up Coyote Canyon that nearly cost me a divorce. I made a video on Anz-Borr & put it on UA-cam. Search with my name and the park name-it should come up. I agree with you-it’s a great park with a lot of unique stories.

      Ah gotcha! Thanks. We appreciate your comments and trying to help us out 🤗. But for future reference watch time matters more than anything. UA-cam will rank our video based on how long people watch. So when you click on a video and want to support that creator watch it all the way through. Backing out means you lost interest and downgrades it in the algorithm. This matters far more than likes and comments
