The Desert Speaks
Cruising the "Mother Road"
Season 16
Episode 1606
Begin in the Petrified Forest near the border of Arizona and New Mexico and trace the “mother road” through the pines of Flagstaff to the Joshua trees of the Mojave Desert. Along the way, the travelers experience heavy winds at the Meteor Crater, visit the ghost town of Oatman, catch a glimpse of the rare “shoe tree” and finish up in the San Bernardino Mountains of California.
