Although I love the lush, tropical forests of the Chiriqui highlands in Panama, I'm also drawn to the arid, sparse, high deserts in the western United States. There's something about the vast, harshly serene, windswept scenery that soothes the soul and puts a person in awe of our Creator.
The pictures below were taken en route to Winnemucca, Nevada. For me, they are reminiscent of Arizona, however the scale is so much grander.
Tomorrow I should pass through Salt Lake City, Utah and into Wyoming. Haven't been that way since early childhood and remember nothing. Hopefully there will be photo opportunities for posting! Two thousand miles still to go....
