Updates To The Cities List Page

 I've made several updates (added informational links) to our Mojave Desert Cities and Towns page. ( https://desertspiritchronicles.blogspot.com/p/mojave-desert-cities-and-towns.html )

I added links about the Amboy Crater volcano. (You can go hiking in the crater)

I also updated city and town links through "L".

This is obviously going to be an on-going work in progress for quite some time. This list is far from comprehensive, and is mostly (at this time) focused on the cities and towns I'm aware of in Southern California and nearby.

I'm intending to follow the desert portions of Route 66, Highway 80, Highway 95, and a few others, and especially historic railroad towns.

I'm also open to suggestions for adding cities, towns, or attractions. If you know of something that you think should be added, let me know via our Contact Us page: https://desertspiritchronicles.blogspot.com/p/contact-us.html.

Thank you for visiting, be safe out there, and enjoy the view!

Update 10-30-2024:

I've finished my original list through "Z" as of tonight. On a suggestion from someone I respect in Mojave Desert Exploration, I will begin researching Mojave Ghost Towns to fill out more of the list going forward. - Dan
