Stealth camping at trailhead on Schnebly Hill in Sedona, Arizona

We didn’t want to drive all the way out to 525C, 525D, or 525E. We didn’t want to park at the top of Forest Road. We didn’t have a site at Rancho Sedona. We thought: why not camp at the trailhead on Schnebly Hill Road. It’s a grey area; we might be backpacking and backwoods camping along a trail. We had a recreation pass. We decided to try it. We woke up the next morning, in the midst of a movie shoot! (Or television or commercial photography, or maybe just an Insta-influencer and accompanying entourage.)

(This was on a past trip, not recently.)

Spring Lake Regional Park

We had a great site with a view of the lake, as well as a view of the night sky through clearing clouds and intermittent tree branches, on the night of the full supermoon lunar eclipse. It was magical.

Highly recommend Spring Lake Regional Park in Santa Rosa, California!

Here’s a video of our sunset jog around Spring Lake, and a couple of photos.

Hopi Yer Well!

Hopi Yer Well!

Life mirroring life, the inside reflected on the outside, the external a match for the internal, and again, the micro and the macro. Nesting dolls. Perfectly sized objects inside perfectly shaped holes. The innies and the outies. The cosmic and the cellular. The big raps on turtles’ backs aaallll the way down.

We’re just tripping on through! And currently our trip takes us to parts known in a van that we call home. It’s our Sprinter Starship and we’re driving on Route 40, heading West.
