The Kelso Dunes power-line road is getting sandy, so I'm now walking the bike a bit; time to find a campsite!

My campsite criteria: not too visible from the road, not directly under the transmission lines, not in a drainage wash in case of rain, and preferably high enough up to have a bit of a view. Not fussy, am I?
