On day two, the Carrot Spoons made the journey to La Mesa.

Carrot Spoons – Base Camp – Dry Falls Lake – Red Alkaline Lake

On the way back, we explored a huge channel, which turned out not to be a shortcut. It was great anyway!

Carrot spoons, in search of a shortcut, explore a giant channel.

Their track is meandering, and appears to fall off the edge of the mesa.

We also stopped to admire the watering hole, a.k.a. the cattle cooler.

All of the Carrot Spoons made it safely to base camp that evening.
