I think this is all bamboo. Presumably it had grown in the valley over the last seven years. I'm sure there must be a use for it.

Kouris Is Full!

I honestly didn't expect to see this reservoir full. I think we first drove past it around five years ago, and ever since then it has been nearly empty. The first time we found the abandoned church, it was quite some way above the water line, and as you will see, it just got further and further away.

The Abandoned Rancho Appaloosa

I feel like apologising for the size of this blog, as it contains over 70 photos.

However, as we were in the area, we decided to revisit the abandoned Rancho Appaloosa, to see how much it had changed since we first found the place, in 2016.
