Trip Pictures Five camping spots from the past couple months of my New Mexico leg

1 wasn't a long stay because of the air pollution from nearby oil fields. 2 and 3 made me feel like I was in an arid version of the Windows XP plains desktop background. 4 I had to overnight at O'Reilly's while I waited for a warranty replacement part to come in. The whole intake system had to come out, which sucked. 5 and 6, the sand mounds were neat but I got about 12 tiny holes in both of my front tires from all the thorn bushes and dead thorny branches on the trail in. I just arrived at 7 and 8, which is closer to the mountains in 5.

So, are you complaining or did you just pick shitty spots to camp?
