I try and choose places for this Gathering that allow most to attend and unfortunatly that often rules out heavy hiking and camping
As I stated above I am in the process of planning a trip next spring (late feb-march) to the desert of Arizona (KOFA NWR to be exact)
Kofa NWR Kofa National Wildlife Refuge and Palm Canyon, Arizona
This would be a very high-adventure-type of photo expidition, however sacrficing common things like tolets, beds etc are 300% worth it if you want to get some of the best desert bloom photos around. I was there in 2001 and have been dying to get back
