Winter Break Trip Black Canyon Mojave Desert
Kayak & Camp in Black Canyon • Black Canyon, located downstream of Hoover Dam, is rich with springs. • Here, you can find springs of both the thermal (hot) and non-thermal (cold) variety with water temperatures ranging from about 55° to 136° Fahrenheit. • Some of the springs are pools while others are seeps. Seeps, as the name implies, are springs that seep from small fractures in rock walls. These fractures can be up to 100 feet long.
Mojave Desert Camping & Hiking • Desert solitude in Southern California • Singing sand dunes, volcanic cinder cones, Joshua tree forests, and carpets of wildflowers are all found at this 1.6 million acre park. • A visit to its canyons, mountains and mesas will reveal long-abandoned mines, homesteads, and rock-walled military outposts. • Mojave provides serenity and solitude
