We soon saw the windmill on the right side of the road.
We went past the first one to the south entrance to the land.
After turning off the highway, we had to stop several times to check the road conditions. Here the road transitions from a rocky road, into some soft sand.
We drove to the Lat/Lon coordinates, and then continued past a little ways. The road was passible in a mini-van, but you definately had to be careful. There were two spots along the approximately 1 mile drive that we had to take a good running start at, and I almost got stuck in some soft sand, even though the road appeared to be in good condition.
Once we got there, there were lots of cactus, and plenty of sand.
After doing some digging...
We took a family photo in front of a cactus.

GREAT PICTURES. Thanks for taking time to take them and post them.
Sounds like lots of fun.
ARe you going to dry pan for gold? Take some pictures and I'll show them to the prospector at Memorial Home.
Have lots of fun w/David and each other.
Did you find any gold?

I didn't find anything this morning. After I searched with the detector for a while, it started acting squirely, and I think the batteries were running low.
At that point, I dug down a little bit in a dry creek bed and loaded it up in bucket and will let you sift through it a little bit.
