Camping trip at the King Of Hammers.
 

Went to the King Of Hammers (KOH) earlier this month to watch a friend race. It's held in the desert of Johnson Valley, California.
Here are some photos.

Our camp site for 9 days.

Many of the purpose built buggies were hitting the gas way too hard through Gate Keeper and rolling over.

LOL....we always tent camp but 9 days in what can only be described as a dust bowl, with 1" of dust through your hair, clothes, in your boots, by the end of the day....having a shower was "heaven on earth".

This was the exception, not the rule....:D
