High Desert Country

This is the type terrain that surrounds the mesa where we are working this week. The altitude is 6000 feet and the air very dry. Several of our group are experiencing dizziness and weak feeling. For miles the only thing to be seen is sagebrush. There are no trees in this area.

Here is one of the homes where we pickup people for VBS. Their house is located between two sandstone ridges. I saw no power poles near this house so they probably don't have electricity or running water. Most of the nearly dozen cars scattered about appeared to not have been moved in a long time.

The corral for the horses used a sandstone wall for the back fence.
