Pinacates Volcanic Field/Biosphere Reserve

From the satellite photo, it doesn't appear that there's a whole lot of "bio" going on there...

There isn't. Lizards, sidewinders, and Cholla cactus (and old lava flows) are what the Pinacate are all about.

Louis L'Amour set one of his books along El Camino del Diablo and the Pinacate region - from the Territorial Prison in Yuma south to the Gulf.

His descriptions of the area should be enough to keep all but the most foolhardy from venturing there.
