My son Josiah and I had the opportunity to camp out at Calico this past weekend. We had to pick one of the coldest times in recent memory in Southern California. The overnight temperature was 17 degrees, nice and cold in the Mojave desert. The land was so barren it was amazing. Just a few miles in the canyon areas, they use to bring the moon buggy for practice because there was only rocks and no vegetation.
There was very interesting rock formations around the camp area such as the one above. The rocks were red and turned to orange when there was a sunset. It was very beautiful. If only it wasn't so cold it would have been more enjoyable.
There is also a commercialized ghost town for you to visit with daily gunfights on the weekends.
