Overnight Adventure in a Rock Cathedral

  • I looked for an overnight shelter while hiking towering rock formations in the Mojave Desert of Southern California, USA. These rocks echoed the grandeur of Gothic cathedrals, built in Europe between the 12th and 16th centuries. Just as those structures were designed as sanctuaries, where heaven met earth and humanity reached for the divine, so to these natural cathedrals hold a sense of sacred communion.
    The ideal shelter would provide protection from the elements, be large enough to sleep on a sandy floor, offer a good view of the sky, and not already be occupied by creatures such as mountain lions, rodents, snakes and other vermin.

    Breathtaking views. I can only imagine how much better it looks through the naked eye. That night sky is beautiful. The Milky Way so bright. That cook set sure looks familiar. Thanks for sharing this wonderful place.

    Very nice ( as usual)
    Great scenery and quiet.
    Very happy to see you out
    roaming and rambling on
    an overnight trip again.
    Glad to see a hardhat to
    keep bad things off of your head. Good to see the stanley
    cup still going. I couldn't see
    what the coffee was, but I'm
    happy to see you out and about and able to have it first
    thing in the morning.
    Thanks for another great video
    Looking forward to many more

    • @KennethKramm
      @KennethKramm  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks Bob. You would love exploring it with me. I’ve been using this cook for about eight years. Very simple and excellent for backpacking ultra light . This is the first time to use it in California… during the dry season all fires are illegal…. Now the ground is wet and there is low fire danger, it was a good time to use it. It only took 2 minutes to boil water.

    You find the coolest spots bro. I never had a chance to hit the Mojave, and I was there close by my whole life. Now I’m in the Houston area. Might do Sam Houston forest but these storms closed the roads.
