Pepe had his first outing today in the Sonoran Desert amongst the Ocotillo and Saguaro. What an awesome experience to be able to access the trails miles back into the hills and valleys. We were less than 30 miles from the house but could have been in the middle of nowhere for all you could see were hills, scrub and cacti in every direction. Next time we are packing a cooler so we can have lunch back there.

Pepe was a good boy climbing up and down 11-degree hills and 19-degree embankments, such a work horse. He was rewarded with his first bubble bath at home this evening. There is just something so relaxing about covering your car with a sheet of foam and then just listening to it drip onto the driveway for a few minutes.

Next weekend I’m taking him to Sycamore Creek where I understand there are miles of dry riverbed where we can try out Baja mode 😊 At least that’s the plan if my new air compressor kit and adjustable tire deflators arrive this week. We are going to get very dirty!

Great post! Hope to see you on the AZ trails soon. What air compressor kit did you order? I need to get one too.

I almost went with the ARB CKMP12 for $400 but then I found the ALL TOP Air Compressor Kit for $159.

https://www.amazon.com/ALL-TOP-150Psi-Compressor-Portable-Heavy/dp/B08637KCWQ

From all I read it sounds reliable and will fill all 4 35” tires plus a few others before it overheats and has to sit for a while. Some compressors apparently last 15 minutes then need a 30 minute cool down before they will run again.

I wanted a portable unit so I could use it in other vehicles or pass it around if somebody in the group doesn’t have one.
