Discussion
This image is from April 15. We camped overnight in a beautiful spot. Daytime temperatures were in the high 60’s.
The desert cooled off rapidly at night. The temperature dropped well below freezing.
I was very cold in my tent despite being prepared for low temperature. Sunrise and warming temperatures were welcome.
First light skimmed the rocks I was standing on and the distant peaks on the right where some snow is still visible on the mountains.
