Cows and Stars and RVs

Was a nice spot, though not a lot of shade. No issues getting there even in my sedan, just took it slow and smart for the rough bumpy patches. We found a spot near the edge of the area to set up our tent as most other spots were taken by rvs and trailers. Rocky area with plenty of cow and other wildlife around, great stars at night and relative solitude.
