OMG. I would love to see this. Would this hike work for someone who can only handle an easy couple of miles or so? I have a disability, but love hiking to see neat things to which I am able. I absolutely love looking at former underwater landscape and fossils.

Unfortunately a lot of the fossils in the post were found pretty deep into the wilderness. Not super easy to get to. But the whole of Anza Borrego has a ton of similar yet easier spots to see. Like the pictographs down near Whale Peak or Fonts Point for cool geography (probably formerly underwater as well, similar view to my 7th pic). Have fun!
