A couple miles from the Salton Sea in Southern California there is a place that looks like it should be on the moon. The area is home to a few jackrabbits, some desert brush, and lots of dust. Once a year these permanent residents of the area play host to a large pack of Jeeps and Jeepers for the annual Desert Safari. This event has been hosted by the Tierra Del Sol 4-Wheel Drive Club of San Diego for 39 years now, with attendance growing each year. This year, over the first weekend of March, Jeeps from all over the country could be seen creeping and crawling all over the ridges and valleys a few miles from the big salty lake. If you would like to attend the 40th annual TDS run this year check out the Tierra Del Sol 4-Wheel Drive Club of San Diego’s Web site at www.tds4x4.com.
