Some More Shots of Slab City

Sequoia driving the hostel's deathtrap-mobile,
a very Slabby homemade go-kart.

Stick Man dreamed up and created this 
solar-poweredvehicle from a tricycle, a solar panel and the
mechanism from a Rascal-type scooter.

Sean visited the Slabs in this tiny pod trailer.
And I thought I was living small.

And the gorgeous desert skies just 
keep on coming. 


A last shot of Salvation Mountain lit by the full moon.

The Midnight Riders, a group of Burning Man types
made their annual bicycle trek from LA to the Slabs.

More Portraits from the Slabs

This year saw the arrival at the Slabs of two French
girls, Lola and Naomi. 


They created a mural at the hostel and had 
a party to unveil it and to say adieu before 
their departure. Here it is in progress :

The late afternoon sunlight made a great opportunity 
to shoot portraits of friends from Slab City.

Balu...

...and the girls.

Earl and the girls.


Was it good for you?
