This image was taken as my DJI Phantom 4 was hovering over an area in the El Paso Mountains. The trail shown in the photo seems to disappear into the hills at the upper right. In truth, the trail runs through an area that is known as Iron Canyon.
Iron Canyon was once home to outlaws and bandits, who hid in its various gullies and nooks.
This is a place that is called “The Narrows.” It is located in California’s Mojave Desert.
The trail was a little too rough for me to continue driving along in my Jeep, so I used my DJI Phantom 4 scout ahead for me.
A favorite spot of campers, off-road enthusiasts, and of recreational shooters, Mule Canyon offers a variety of colors for photographers! DJI Phantom 4 image.

This was taken over the El Paso Mountains. The structures are the old “complex” of cabins that belonged to the late Tonie Evelyn Seger, and William “Burro” Schmidt. Looking past the cabins, some parked vehicles can be seen. The vehicles are parked at the entrance to Burro Schmidt’s Tunnel, which is a popular attraction for off-road “tourists.”

…State Park, that is.
Notice how the trail shown in this image seems to disappear into the reddish rock formations in the distance. Those rock formations are located within Red Rock State Park. This trail is one of many that snake through the El Paso Mountain Range.
The Sierra Nevada Mountains can be seen in the background.

I was struck by the details in the foreground of this image. Specifically, the small rocks and creosote bushes.

The sloping plain is in the El Paso Mountains Wilderness area, with Black Mountain on the right. My DJI Phantom 4 was oriented toward the north-west, when this image was taken, and the Sierra Nevada Mountains can be seen in the distance.
