For me this is the land of a thousand memories. It all started in 1980, when my grand parents brought my brother and I here for the first time. They weren't the kind of parents that wanted you to stay within view of the camp trailer, there motto was, ' go run up and down those hills, and don't come back until dinner.' So we did like we were told and explored the countryside like no one else.


This scene includes Flatiron Ridge to the right, and the eastern boundary of the Hoover Wilderness Area in the background. The manzanita are in bloom and that provided the foreground color.
