| no partners | | After a week of camping in the Mojave National Preserve I took the family into Bullhead City where we spent the night along the Colorado River at Davis Dam. The next morning I took the kayak out for what is essentially an "urban kayak" past the casinos in Laughlin and the riverfront homes in Bullhead. There was no one else on the water despite the beautiful weather, which to me is a blessing, as I'd rather not contend with jet skis and water taxis. After six leisurely hours I reached my destination at Aztec Road just above the Nevada/California state line, where my family was waiting with the truck. My wife had packed up camp at Davis Dam and made a pitstop at Safeway for a handful of carrots. Off to Oatman to feed the burros! |
