We were in Baja a few weeks ago for the Baja 1000 - this photo was taken from this punta. We were headed to RM435 to work as "extraction" - if any of our race cars got stuck, we would find them and get them moving again.
Yesterday I drove along the El Paso Natural Gas Pipe Line from near Tonopah, AZ, west to Ehrenberg, AZ, about 80 miles. The pipeline parallels I-10, 10-20 miles to the south, through some remote, spectacular Sonoran Desert.
The road continued beyond the above photo, but around 10k', we ran into a little snow. It appeared to be an old avalanche - there was tree debris in the snow. Downslope, the snow had semi-pushed over some small pines. Beyond the snow was a downed tree across the road - we were done. There were no nearby turnouts, and spinning the truck was a little challenging.
