0523b Devil's Garden
Devil's Garden was a place we were told and read that was a must see. It was 16 miles down a dirty, dusty washboard road. Going in we probably never got much over 15-20 mph, and mostly more in the sub 20 range.
We noticed what appeared to be locals almost flying along. On the way back I decided to see if going faster would smooth out the ride. It did so… in the vicinity of 50-60 mph it was surprisingly smooth. Just had to watch out for the cattle.
But what a reward! It has some of the most fascinating sandstone sculptures we saw on the trip. We recommend it. Just remember, go for it!
