I was expecting 4-wheeling through the desert. What I got was a tour and education of the area, while in a Jeep. Rick was AMAZING and knew everything about the area. Very educational! The tour was scheduled for three hours and took that long. You cover maybe a few miles of Jeep travel. I would rather more time be spent to the geology of the area as opposed to being educated on the indian tribe that lived there.
