Trip Pics of Borrego Springs, SoCal - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My wife and I took a camping trip in Borrego Springs, California over Easter week. Took a few pictures of the Blazer in action as we ventured back into some BLM land to find some secluded camping and natural springs. Pictures don't do the area justice, but enjoy them just the same.

Nice - I would be afraid to do that if my truck was as nice as yours, but then again - if they just sit collecting dust - what is the point?

Thanks.

I've been through that little creek a few years ago when I lived in San Diego. Beautiful down there - looks like fun - Blazer looks great!

Love the pics. Looks like the Blazer handled the trail with ease. Camping is always fun and that place looks beautiful.

Jimmypop -

The area is called Coyote Valley just outside city of Borrego Springs, CA. Google Borrego Springs and you will see the area north west of the city. The entire valley is closed to all traffic (hikers to trucks) in summer because it is an ecologically sensitive area and they don't want to scare the big horned sheep away. We caught it just in time with mild temps and a good amount of water still flowing in the creek.
