At California Highway 178 we turned east. We drove past vast open expanse of desert and the occasional ghost town. After about 25 miles or so, we saw something out in the distance. Pinnacles rising from the desert flats. We had reached Pinnacles National Monument Pinnacles National Monument A discovery in the desert.
Pinnacles rise in the distance.
