A visit to the Domelands and Wind Caves January 10, 2014  by Fred Melgert and Carla Hoegen

Here are some great shots shared by Fred and Carla from a recent trip to the Domelands, south of Borrego Springs, outside of Anza-Borrego State Park.  They report that the hike is easy; the trail was probably built a long time ago.  The trail signs are no longer there but the scenery still is. Located outside the Anza Borrego park, but in a wilderness area, so no vehicles out here. Click here for a Wikiloc map and description of the route
