Desert Scruff 0 Posted January 23, 2014 Since I've been hanging around for nearly a year perhaps it time to introduce myself. I'm Desert Scruff aka John from Washington State. I grew up in the Colorado Desert (El Centro) and roamed around in the desert when you could cross the sand dunes at Glamis and be the only one out there. That was the same for just about anywhere else we drove, camped and hiked, including Baja and Sonora. Oh, the mordita was there but not the danger. I left all that for Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. But the desert is in my heart and several years ago we started going to Utah's southeast corner each spring and fall. Next winter I'll be in the Arizona desert and my old stomping grounds in California. My wife and I drive our Jeep Rubicon to remote canyons and hike to see what we see. In Utah that is often Anasazi ruins and rock art. But picking any wash and going for a hike is wonderful. I enjoy the Offroad Passport Community's friendliness and helpfulness. Thanks for letting me in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
