Agent Orange: Friendly fire that keeps on burning.

We had guests from NE Ohio a few days ago. We took the jet boat tour up the river, through the Topoc Gorge. Some pics taken along the way:

Chemehuevi Mountains on the California side of the lake.

More Mohave Rock along the shore. This one might bear a little closer inspection though.

Sand bores caused by turbulance during high water flows before the dams. Please excuse the window reflections.

Star Gazer rock formation. If you use your imagination, you should be able to see a person looking up. According to Indian lore, if the star gazer opened his eyes as you passed down the river, you'd have safe passage, as he was looking after you. If he failed to open his eyes, you were in for a treacherous trip. Due to the angle of the wind cut hole, you would not be able to see the opening if you were on the water when the level was higher. Hence, with that much flow, you were in for a rough trip, according to the star gazer and such would also be the assumption if you used your head.

Another human form rock formation. Known by early travelers as the "Praying Indian". You should be able to make out a left facing human with his hands folded in prayer.
