Oh Mickey you're so fine |
A friend and I had stumbled into Mickey Basin several years ago while on the way to Coyote Playa. We had always intended on returning - and did, this past April. This time we brought reinforcements, a fairly large group of folks from Bend and Eugene. We set up cam near the northeast corner of the basin and explored. It was a bit earlier in the year than the time I had previously been there, and a drier year, so the spring mounds were not nearly as lush. But the overall experience was great and the area begs for continued exploration - perhaps the Sheepshead Mountains next?
