For sure – if there’s a “next time” I definitely want to do the loop version of the hike. There are lots of other mines and former mining communities around JT, but Lost Horse is one of the biggest.

Others have commented on it already, but I’ll concur, that Mojave Aster image is dreamy!

Lost Horse Mine looks like a fun place to explore. Hope that party with the kids made it. What a shame if they didn’t.

Thanks, Vivienne! Mojave Aster’s a very pretty flower, isn’t it?

I really like your shot of the aster. It looks like the center is reflecting the light back up, making the petals glow.

Thanks for sharing your adventures! Maybe one day we’ll get there.

That looks like a great hike…
Especially love your shot of the Indian Paintbrush and Joshua Tree…
The stamping mill looks SO interesting… Years ago I found an old stamping mill on the tiny dirt road that used to lead out the back-side of Bodie to the Nevada border…

The aster and cactus flower have beautiful coloration. Such beauty in the face of such a hostile environment.
