What else to do in the middle of nowhere?

Land-sailing when the wind wasn't TOTALLY shunning us.

Soaking

It's always fun to see what vehicles people pull up in at the hot springs. Bikes, quads, cars..

...also...Airplanes !!

There were three planes camped out on the playa just below the hotsprings. But why walk to the springs when you can take off in your dual-sport airplane and fly there. After soaking for a while, the bush plane took off to fly the 1/4 mile back to camp to grab food, then flew back up again.

They had been up in the Steens chasing antelope earlier.

Moving on with things to do...

Contemplating Bigger Things

And last but certainly not least... drinking (see Camp Redmond)
