We decided to take Highway 99 south and then 178 to Ridgecrest towards Death Valley National Park. We stayed at Walmart at Delano and Ridgecrest. There’s miles and miles of fruit/nut trees and vines. I know they say California is in a drought, but there’s a lot of irrigating these trees. Also a lot of dairy operations and industrial plants - Kraft, Halos, milk. In the Bakersfield area it was so smoggy you couldn’t even see that there were mountains until we got close.
The Jawbone Station is a BLM office that we stopped at. They had information on boondocking in the area, mines, the Trona Pinnacles, and Death Valley.
