To complete my full day of exploring I drove up the sandy 4 mile track to the edge of a very dramatic scene. There was one very large vehicle stuck on the drive in, but they had successfully extricated it by the time I drove back out. You are basically driving uphill in Fonts Point Wash, not realizing how much elevation you are gaining and what lies ahead. Parked at the turn around at the end of the road and walked over to the edge of the cliff. Whoa! :o What a view across miles of the Borrego Badlands below. :) It is about 1300 feet at the edge and around 700 to 800 feet down below. Terrific views of the Salton Sea to the east, across the badlands to the south, Borrego Springs to the west, and the Santa Rosa Mountains to the north. Glad I decided to check it out. :D
