Description

Dinner and a movie on a Saturday? Not that impressive compared to a knock-your-socks-off camping excursion in the desert, the kind of inspired trip that made Jim Morrison spin words into epic poetry. Top down on a 10-wheel military vehicle, take a spin in the largest desert state park in the nation touring diverse, gorgeous terrain. Check out a few of the 6,000 peaks, labyrinthine badlands, a palm oasis, and awe-inspiring overlooks. It'll look and feel otherwordly, like you're off-roading on Mars. Hear tales of Anza-Borrego's history and topography, Western lore, Native American history, paleontology, archaeology and geology. At the campsite, enjoy a delicious meal of tri-tip beef and salmon cooked on an open fire as the sun goes behind the mountains. As the moon climbs in the clear desert night, you'll take a nocturnal drive to the remote 17 Palms oasis to enjoy wine served cowboy style in genuine tin cups and a delicious s'mores dessert. What's next? The choice is yours: explore with a night hike under the desert sky or relax by the crackling campfire sipping wine. Take that, dinner and a movie.
