LIDICKER 1973 Apr 30 cont. Large "pit" of camping strategy are used by the ORV club. We surveyed the extensive damage, took a few photos, & followed the road as it looped off into the nts & back to R-M Rd. We returned to California City for water & a few groceries. Then had been scattered showers during the night & we could see evidence of it from Kofa Dry Lake to Calif. City. Several other squabbles could be seen in the distance, especially to the N. We saw quite a few desert tortoises in our drive & carried them off the roads. Along Naval Air Rd., N of Calif. City & again in the Road Mtns. we took photos of them. We drove west of Calif. City to Calif. 14 & went N to Radrock Canyon, stopping for gas near the jet. With the Red Hills Rd. Then we drove up the Canyon lead to Dove Spring. Almost the entire canyon has been ruined by ORV's. The destruction is hard to believe. We took a number of photos here too. It was just cloudy with a few drops of rain now & then, & cold & windy. The wind for us from the west.
