Salt Plains

As part of our 4th of July '08 tour... We made a stop at White Salt Plains. Normally, you can drive out and do a dig... but for unknow reasons it is closed due to some emergency. If you are interested, call before going and see if is opened. Normal open season is late April to Oct 1. They do research... and there is a decent sized lake on the other side of the salt plain.

You drive between two cow pastures to get to this place that feels like another planet... or at least a really cool movie set. BLINDING sun!

Gloss Mountain

This is how we spent our 4th of July, atop Gloss Mountain. Located in western Oklahoma. A short hike and a short drive from Tulsa.

Ring Necked

A little wild life on gloss mountain. We also spotted an owl and it was pretty cool sitting eye level with the hunting vultures.
