The Mojave, once a part of an ancient interior sea, was formed by volcanic action--lava surfaces with cinder cones are present--and by material deposited by the Colorado River. Strong, dry winds blow in the afternoon and evening.
Located in the rain shadow of the Coast Ranges, the Mojave receives an average annual rainfall of 5 inches, mostly in winter.
This is my home, my backyard.
