Highway One Barstow

Motor Home Exploration in the Mojave

The Mojave Desert is one of the greatest places in America to see spectacular scenery. It's in a unique spot; it comprises the barrier between the low, hot Sonora Desert and the cool, high Great Basin of Nevada and Utah. It covers 25,000 square miles, and sprawls into the states of California, Arizona, Nevada and Utah.

You might imagine a big flat, featureless landscape of sand and rock, but that's just the view from the highway. Actually the Mojave is full of desert wildflowers, majestic mountain ranges and lots of variety of scenery. The entire Mojave Desert includes Mojave, Death Valley, Joshua Tree National Park and the Lake Mead area. The area is defined by its geographic indicator, the Joshua Tree. You won't see these pretty desert trees anywhere else in the world.

The main area of the Mojave is a stretch of pretty wilderness in southern California between Highways 15 and 40, east of Barstow and west of Needles. On the east, it sits right up against the Arizona border.

Death Valley

What do you imagine when you hear that? Parched hikers, vultures circling overhead waiting for somebody to drop dead, a cow skull in the dust maybe. Well, don't let the name fool you. Death Valley is some of the prettiest wilderness scenery the great North American continent has to offer.

It's not all death and decay in Death Valley. Actually, the valley has some rare animal and plant life that you won't find anywhere else. It also has some of the last completely undisturbed wilderness in the country.
One of the things that makes Death Valley so interesting is that it has so much variety in just 3 million square acres. It has mountain peaks, like the 11,000 footer Telescope Peak, and also the lowest point in North America, at nearly 300 feet below sea level.

Don't let the name scare you. Death Valley was named by the miners who tried to cross it to get to California during the gold rush. Many of them were unprepared, and none of them came with a fully-equipped motor home for cooling off during the hot days!

Joshua Tree National Park

One of the reasons why Joshua Tree is such a unique environment is that it's at the crossroads between the Mojave and Colorado Desert to the east. Joshua Tree provides all the wild scenery you could want, from windswept plains to giant rock formations in odd shapes. It is a wonderful place to see a colorful sunset across miles of wild, windswept sands with palm trees standing all around your RV.
Compared to Death Valley and other parts of the desert west, Joshua Tree is quite green and colorful. It is full of wildflowers, yuccas, cacti, shrubbery and the famous Joshua Trees themselves. You can hike over the barren rocks or among the pinyon pines. The variety of natural beauty at Joshua Tree is what makes it so popular.

Where To Stay

Your best bet in Death Valley is to stay at one of the many RV parks in Death Valley National Park. You can contact the park directly, or check out their website. The great thing about Death Valley is that most of the parks are open year round. Some of the most popular include Furnace Creek, which is located almost 200 feet below sea level, Panamint Springs Campground or the Stovepipe Wells RV Campground. If you want to be a little higher, try Mahogany Flat way up at 8,000 feet, but be advised that they are not open all year, and you must have a high clearance vehicle.

At Joshua Tree, the most recommended RV parks are Desert Springs Spa and RV Park, Sam's Family Spa or Sands RV Resort in Desert Hot Springs, or Yucca Valley RV Park in Yucca Valley.

Canning Highway $81.25 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Canning Highway is a mostly 4 lane single carriageway major arterial road in Perth, Western Australia. The speed limit is 60 km/h. It is located south of the Swan River and links Perth with Fremantle, running between The Causeway in Victoria Park and Queen Victoria Street in Fremantle. Canning Highway is named for Alfred Canning, a pioneer West Australian pastoralist and late 19th century settler in the area that is now part of the City of Melville. The modern highway was formally commenced in the 1920s, with major work commencing in 1927 to upgrade an 8mile (13 km) section between Suburban Street, South Perth and Petra Street, East Fremantle. In 1938, the present northern bridge over Canning River was opened. It was 32 feet (9.8 m) wide and constructed of timber, as was then common practice. The experience gained building this bridge was used to construct the Fremantle Traffic Bridge over the Swan River one year later. The Fremantle Traffic Bridge joined Canning Highway near Fremantle with North Fremantle, and this intersection forms the highways present western terminus.

Highway 12 $15.5 Highway 12 is undoubtedly one of not only America's but the world's most scenic highways. From its intersection on the west with Highway 89 south of Panguitch, Utah, it runs up through Red Canyon onto the Paunsagunt Plateau and across Bryce Canyon National Park. It then drops into the Paria River Valley, passes through several tiny villages, crosses some extraordinary (for anywhere but this region) badlands, and descends the Escalante River into Potato Valley. While a driver may justifiably feel she has seen some scenery by that point, the highway is just getting started, for in the next stretch, it crosses a labyrinth of multicolored sandstone humps and corridors, climaxed by a narrow hogback with steep slickrock drops to each side, all within Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. Reaching the oasis of Boulder within this desert of rock, the road then climbs across the flank of the Aquarius Plateau, providing spectacular vistas and terminating at the gateway to Capitol Reef National Park. Along the way side roads and trails access the vast wilderness of the Paria and Escalante Rivers and the high plateaus they drain. Congress acknowledged the unequaled splendor of Highway 12 by designating it one of a handful of All-American Roads. To travel with Christian Probasco this road and its spurs, which lead deep into some of the wildest, most broken-up and stunning landscapes anywhere, can put a unique twist on an already singular experience. He knows the region as well as anyone and brings an original, edgy, youthful view to it. His opinions and his language may challenge you. His approaches to and perspectives on the land may sometimes surprise you. His understanding of the area's history and its people will likely teach you a thing or two.

Highway to Hell $9.08 Since it was first published in Australia in 1994 and subsequently in Britain and the US Highway to Hell has become a classic of rock writing, and a classic Australian biography.

To many still the only AC/DC singer, Bon was a working-class rebel poet whose voice has touched generations of fans all over the world. In this fully revised and updated edition, which thanks to new information finally dispels the myths surrounding Bon's death, Clinton Walker captures the man, his music and the times...

Highway 61 $12.99 Rushmore McKenzie returns with a too-personal case that leads him up the legendary Highway 61 in the latest in this awardwinning series   Rushmore McKenzie is a former cop, current millionaire, and an occasional unlicensed P.I. who does favors for friends. Yet he has reservations when his girlfriend’s daughter asks him to help her father Jason Truhler, the ex-husband of McKenzie’s girlfriend, and a man in serious trouble. En route from St. Paul to a Canadian blues festival on Highway 61, he met a girl, blacked out, and awoke hours later in a strange motel, with the girl’s murdered body on the floor. Slipping away unnoticed and heading home, he thought he’d got away—until he started getting texts with photos of the body and demands for blackmail payments he couldn’t pay. McKenzie soon finds that Truhler was set up in a modified honey trap, designed to blackmail him. But Truhler’s version wasn’t exactly the truth either. And McKenzie now finds himself trapped in the middle of a very dangerous game with some of the most powerful men in the state on one side and some of the deadliest on the other.

Lost Highway $12.99 Synopsis: I>Lost Highway draws its plot, or rather its plots, from classic noirs, filled with desperate men and faithless women, expensive cars and cheap motels. Lynch fashions two parallel stories, one abut a jazz musician, tortured by the notion that his wife is having an affair, who suddenly finds himself accused of murder. The other concerns a young mechanic drawn into a web of deceit by a temptress who is cheating on her gangster boyfriend. These two tales are linked by the fact that both women are played by the same actress and may in fact be the same woman. The men are also connected by a mysterious turn of events that calls into question their very identities.
