I hope you enjoyed our photo highlights.
I'd like to thank everyone who joined us over the weekend for helping us to kick off the new year with this epic run across the Mojave Desert. I'd like to give a BIG SHOUT OUT to Tony and Stephanie, Moochie, Doug, Et and Michelle, Ray, Don and Lori, Jeff, Chris and Jen for all your help. Getting 60 Jeeps across 75 miles of trail and back on pavement at a reasonable hour would have been impossible without you guys so thank you.
Until the next time...
2015 WAYALIFE Kick-Off Run
7.6 million years ago, little volcanos or "cinder cones" began erupting in this part of the Mojave Desert and kept on erupting until as recently as 10,000 years ago - essentially yesterday or at least in terms of geological time. As the crust cooled in areas like this, the lava underneath continued to flow creating tunnels or "tubes". Over time, the roofs of these tubes can collapse as has happened here and that allows access into them. Here's a shot of us climbing down a ladder to enter the lava tube.

Susan conquered her fears of small spaces to get here!

But it was well worth it. :yup: Thanks again!
