Joel,
Have a safe trip, take care to stay hydrated in the desert, and disable the
remote trunk release before you leave the car parked for a remote hike.
Favorite tactic is to break a window, pop the trunk from the remote button, and
steal the nice OM stuff you didn't take on the trail. A creep almost got my
stuff that way in Hawaii - luckly another hiker showed up and scare the thief
away.
We look forward to your shots,
Gary
